Claim 5:
6. A method of controlling an electronic device, the method comprising:
determining a value of the at least one proximity parameter captured by each of a plurality of proximity sensors placed at a plurality of locations within the electronic device, wherein each of the plurality of proximity sensors is configured to capture at least one proximity parameter;
comparing, for each of the plurality of proximity sensors, the value determined for the associated at least one proximity parameter with a predefined threshold value;
identifying at least one proximity sensor from the plurality of proximity sensors based on the comparing, wherein the value of the at least one proximity parameter for the at least one proximity sensor is greater than the predefined threshold value;
determining relative coordinates of each of the at least one proximity sensor with respect to a display; and
performing a predefined action within the electronic device based on the relative coordinates determined for each of the at least one proximity sensor.
