Gestures for touch sensitive input devices

TLDR
In this article, the authors described a system for processing touch inputs with respect to a multipoint sensing device and identifying at least one multipoint gesture based on the data from the multi-point sensing device.
Abstract
Methods and systems for processing touch inputs are disclosed. The invention in one respect includes reading data from a multipoint sensing device such as a multipoint touch screen where the data pertains to touch input with respect to the multipoint sensing device, and identifying at least one multipoint gesture based on the data from the multipoint sensing device.

Caching apparatus for serving phonetic pronunciations

TL;DR: In this paper, a shared pronunciation lexicon is used to interpret spoken user input received by a user device by determining a relevant subset of the shared pronunciations lexicon based on contextual information associated with the user device and performing speech-to-text conversion on the spoken user inputs using the determined subset.

Insertion marker placement on touch sensitive display

TL;DR: In this paper, a computer-implemented method is performed at a portable electronic device with a touch screen display, which can include: displaying graphics on the touch screen, detecting a finger contact on the display, and, in response to the detected finger contact, inserting an insertion marker in the graphics at a first location.

Text correction processing

TL;DR: In this article, an initial score is assigned to each of a plurality of candidate sequences of one or more characters, based at least in part on a keyboard geometry-based value associated with the received user input with respect to the candidate key.
Patent

Dynamic tactile interface

TL;DR: In this article, a rotary actuator coupled to the first end of a tube is configured to transition the deformable region from the retracted setting to the expanded setting by winding the tube to displace a portion of fluid within the tube into the fluid channel.

Object position detector with edge motion feature and gesture recognition

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method of generating a signal comprising providing a capacitive touch sensor pad including a matrix of X and Y conductors, developing capacitance profiles in one of an X direction and a Y direction from the matrix, and determining an occurrence of a single gesture through an examination of the capacitance profile, the single gesture including an application of at least two objects on the capacitive sensor pad.
