An electronic device, system associated therewith, and method of operating an electronic device are disclosed. In one example embodiment, the method includes storinga first base tilt position of the electronic device based upon at least one position signal received by a processing device at least indirectly from a position or movement sensing component. The method additionally includes defininga plurality of tilt zones in relation to the base tilt position, including a base tilt zone containing the base tilt position, determiningwhether a tilt position of the device has changed to a second tilt zone of the plurality of tilt zones, and causinga display component of the device to perform displaying of information in a scrolling manner determined at least in part based upon the second tilt zone.

Method and system for tilt-based actuation

A method and system for recognizing gestures on an electronic device, such as a mobile device (e.g., watch), are disclosed. In one example embodiment, the method includes obtaining a gesture template, determining a first mean value based upon the gesture template, obtaining gesture data by way of a motion sensing component of the electronic device, and calculating (by way of a processing device) a correlation metric based at least indirectly upon the gesture data and the gesture template, where the correlation metric is calculated based at least in part upon the first mean value. The method also includes determining based at least in part upon the correlation metric that a first of the gestures has occurred, and taking at least one additional action based at least in part upon the determining.

Method and system for gesture recognition

A system and method for detecting a viewing gesture with respect to a wrist-worn device employ a logistic-regression model to pre-learn gesture metrics for on events. An output model is produced for deployment on a consumer device, allowing real-time gesture detection with high accuracy and low latency.
