Abstract
An input device is provided, such as for a vehicle, whereby a gesture may be provided to present an application associated with the gesture, even if another application is being displayed by an output. If a gesture does not match, the gesture may be processed as an input to the other application currently displayed. A time shift algorithm may be utilized to determine if the received gesture matches the gesture associated with the other application. Additionally, a dedicated close gesture may be utilized to dismiss a currently displayed application.
