Abstract
A device includes control logic, at least a portion of which is implemented in hardware, to process motion data, the motion data collected from a first accelerometer in a base unit and from a second accelerometer in a display panel attached to a base unit of a mobile device, to determine whether the display panel moves relative to the base unit and to temporarily ignore or disable one or more input devices of the mobile device for a predetermined period of time to avoid unintentional user interaction with the mobile device during the movement of the display panel.
