Abstract
Methods for processing information transmitted from a pointing device with at least one button towards a graphical interface operating according to received display motion coordinates and notifications are provided. A method includes intercepting sensed motion coordinates and the button status transmitted from the pointing device. The method further includes determining the display motion coordinates and the notifications based on an evolution of the sensed coordinates and an evolution of the button status, to remove an unintentional motion included in the sensed motion coordinates. The method then includes outputting the display motion coordinates and the notifications towards the graphical interface.
