Abstract
A device includes one or more motion sensors and processing circuitry coupled to the one or more motion sensors. The one or more sensors, in operation, generate motion sensor signals. The processing circuitry, in operation, classifies a user-activity type based on the motion sensor signals, the user-activity type being selected from a plurality of user-activity types including one or more moving activity types, detects a tilt angle of the device based on the motion sensor signals, and classifies a use-condition of the device as used or not used based on the detected tilt angle. The processing circuitry generates a use-warning signal based on whether the classification of the user-activity type is a moving activity type and on whether the classification of the use-condition is used. The device may include an integrated circuit including the motion sensors and the processing circuitry, and the integrated circuit may be embedded in a display.
