Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide techniques for motion stabilized touch control. Reference data comprising one or more stabilized positions for one or more touch points corresponding to one or more touch zones associated with a touch screen device may be generated using a motion stabilization model. One or more touch zones may be adjusted based on the stabilized positions by transmitting-computer executable-instructions configured to cause the one or more touch zones to be aligned with the one or more stabilized positions. One or more touch detection models associated with the touch screen device may be updated by tuning the one or more touch detection models to learn the stabilized positions. One or more dimensions of the one or more touch zones may be recalibrated by adjusting a size of at least one of the one or more touch zones.

Claims (38)

1 . A computer-implemented method for motion stabilized touch control, the computer-implemented method comprising:

generating, using a motion stabilization model, reference data comprising one or more stabilized positions for one or more touch points corresponding to one or more touch zones associated with a touch screen device by applying motion data from one or more inertial measurement units to the motion stabilization model, wherein the motion stabilization model is configured to analyze the motion data to identify the one or more stabilized positions;

adjusting the one or more touch zones based on the one or more stabilized positions by transmitting-computer executable-instructions configured to cause the one or more touch zones to be aligned with the one or more stabilized positions;

updating one or more touch detection models associated with the touch screen device by tuning the one or more touch detection models to learn the one or more stabilized positions; and

recalibrating one or more dimensions of the one or more touch zones by adjusting a size of at least one of the one or more touch zones.

2 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein recalibrating the one or more dimensions of the one or more touch zones further comprises:

adjusting a shape of the at least one of the one or more touch zones.

3 . The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , further comprising:

integrating the one or more touch zones into a scene rendering process by updating graphical representation of the one or more touch zones within a user interface of the touch screen device.

4 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the motion data comprises one or more of acceleration motion measurement for the touch screen device or angular motion measurement for the touch screen device.

5 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein recalibrating one or more dimensions of the one or more touch zones further comprises standardizing the one or more dimensions for each of the one or more touch zones.

6 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the touch screen device is positioned within a vehicle.

7 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the motion stabilization model is a machine learning model.

8 . An apparatus for motion stabilized touch control, the apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to:

generate, using a motion stabilization model, reference data comprising one or more stabilized positions for one or more touch points corresponding to one or more touch zones associated with a touch screen device by applying motion data from one or more inertial measurement units to the motion stabilization model, wherein the motion stabilization model is configured to analyze the motion data to identify the one or more stabilized positions;

adjust the one or more touch zones based on the one or more stabilized positions by transmitting-computer executable-instructions configured to cause the one or more touch zones to be aligned with the one or more stabilized positions;

update one or more touch detection models associated with the touch screen device by tuning the one or more touch detection models to learn the one or more stabilized positions; and

recalibrate one or more dimensions of the one or more touch zones by adjusting a size of at least one of the one or more touch zones.

9 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein recalibrating the one or more dimensions of the one or more touch zones further comprises:

adjusting a shape of the at least one of the one or more touch zones.

10 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the apparatus is further caused to:

integrate the one or more touch zones into a scene rendering process by updating graphical representation of the one or more touch zones within a user interface of the touch screen device.

11 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the motion data comprises one or more of acceleration motion measurement for the touch screen device or angular motion measurement for the touch screen device.

12 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein recalibrating one or more dimensions of the one or more touch zones further comprises standardizing the one or more dimensions for each of the one or more touch zones.

13 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the touch screen device is positioned within a vehicle.

14 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the motion stabilization model is a machine learning model.

15 . One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media for motion stabilized touch control, the one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media including instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

generate, using a motion stabilization model, reference data comprising one or more stabilized positions for one or more touch points corresponding to one or more touch zones associated with a touch screen device by applying motion data from one or more inertial measurement units to the motion stabilization model, wherein the motion stabilization model is configured to analyze the motion data to identify the one or more stabilized positions;

adjust the one or more touch zones based on the one or more stabilized positions by transmitting-computer executable-instructions configured to cause the one or more touch zones to be aligned with the one or more stabilized positions;

update one or more touch detection models associated with the touch screen device by tuning the one or more touch detection models to learn the one or more stabilized positions; and

recalibrate one or more dimensions of the one or more touch zones by adjusting a size of at least one of the one or more touch zones.

16 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media of claim 15 , wherein recalibrating the one or more dimensions of the one or more touch zones further comprises:

adjusting a shape of the at least one of the one or more touch zones.

17 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media of claim 15 , wherein the one or more processors are further caused to:

integrate the one or more touch zones into a scene rendering process by updating graphical representation of the one or more touch zones within a user interface of the touch screen device.

18 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media of claim 15 , wherein the motion data comprises one or more of acceleration motion measurement for the touch screen device or angular motion measurement for the touch screen device.

19 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media of claim 15 , wherein recalibrating one or more dimensions of the one or more touch zones further comprises standardizing the one or more dimensions for each of the one or more touch zones.

20 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media of claim 15 , wherein the touch screen device is positioned within a vehicle.
