Abstract
Embodiments of methods, apparatuses, devices and systems associated with adjusting for input latency within an electronic are disclosed. An electronic device may receive a user input, such as a user actuation of a device key. A latency adjusted time of the input may be calculated based, at least in part, on a latency of the electronic device in determining the user actuation of the device key. The latency adjusted time may be used to determine a result of the user input.
Claims34
A method performed by an electronic device, the method comprising:
- determining user actuation of an input of the electronic device;
- determining a latency adjusted time of said user actuation of said input, said latency adjusted time being based on a latency of said electronic device in determining said user actuation of said input;
- and
- determining a result of said user actuation of said input based, at least in part, on said latency adjusted time, wherein said result is determined within the electronic device.
An apparatus comprising:
- an electronic device, comprising:
- an input device, and
- a processor communicatively coupled to said input device, the processor configured to determine user activation of said input device, to determine a latency adjusted time of said user activation of said input device, said latency adjusted time being based on a latency of said electronic device in determining said user actuation of said input device, and to determine a result of said user activation of said input device based, at least in part, on said latency adjusted time.
An electronic device comprising:
- means for determining user actuation of at least one input;
- means for determining a latency adjusted time of said actuation of said at least one input, said latency adjusted time being based on a latency of said electronic device in determining said user actuation of said input;
- and
- means for determining a result of said user actuation of said input, said result being adjusted based, at least in part, on said latency adjusted time, wherein said means for determining said result are within the electronic device.
An article comprising:
- a non-transitory, machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions configured to operatively enable an electronic device to:
- determine user activation of at least one input of said electronic device;
- determine a latency adjusted time of said user activation of said input, said latency adjusted time being based on a latency of said electronic device in determining said user actuation of said input;
- and
- determine a result of said user actuation of said input, said result being based, at least in part, on said latency adjusted time, wherein said result is determined by said electronic device.
A method performed by an electronic device, the method comprising:
- displaying an object on a display of the electronic device;
- determining a latency adjusted time of an actuation of an input of the electronic device, wherein the latency adjusted time is determined within the electronic device;
- and
- calculating a result of said input actuation based, at least in part, on a position of said object as displayed on said display at said determined latency adjusted time, wherein the result is calculated within the electronic device.
