A method and system for evaluation of object motion repetitiveness as a basis to distinguish between human motion and non-human motion, in order to facilitate control of device operation. An example method includes (i) a computing system receiving sensor data representing object motion detected by at least one sensor, the object motion defining motion of an object, (ii) the computing system making a determination, based at least on an evaluation of the received sensor data, of whether the detected object motion is repetitive, and (iii) based at least on the determination being that the detected object motion is not repetitive, the computing system responding to the detected object motion by causing a device to take an action corresponding with a prediction that the object is a human being.

Machine-based classification of object motion as human or non-human as basis to facilitate controlling whether to trigger device action

An electronic device incorporating a liquid crystal display (LCD) screen comprises at least one at least one radio frequency (RF) antenna mounted behind a LCD panel of the LCD screen, and a processor. The RF antenna includes a directional transmit RF antenna that transmits an RF signal through the LCD panel to impinge on a human user, and includes a receive antenna configured to receive a RF signal reflected from tissue of the human user. The processor processes the reflected RF signal to generate a processed signal indicative of presence or absence of the human user, and responsive to the processed signal, controls an operating mode of the electronic device and/or enables control of the device by the human user.
