Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de capteur (100) et un procédé de détection de particules magnétiques (1) dans une chambre d'échantillon (2) avec une surface de contact (11). Le dispositif de capteur (100) comprend une unité de capteur (120, 130) servant à détecter des particules magnétiques (1) dans une région cible (TR) et/ou dans au moins une région de référence à la surface de contact. Il comporte en outre un générateur de champ magnétique (140) servant à générer un champ magnétique qui guidera des particules magnétiques à la surface de contact. Ces composants déterminent un « paramètre auxiliaire » qui est lié aux particules magnétiques (1) et/ou à leur mouvement mais qui est indépendant des processus de liaison ayant lieu dans la région cible entre les particules magnétiques et la surface de contact. Le paramètre auxiliaire peut, par exemple, être lié au degré de disparité entre les positions atteintes par les particules magnétiques (1) sous l'influence d'un champ magnétique et la région cible (TR). Les résultats d'évaluation peuvent servir à valider et/ou corriger les mesures obtenues dans la région cible (TR).

Abstract: A control circuit provides an incoming-call response-initiation zone on a touch-screen display in response to an incoming call. The control circuit then takes an incoming-call processing action in response to detecting a user's swipe-based gesture that begins in that incoming-call response-initiation zone. So configured, a user can begin a swipe in the incoming-call response-initiation zone that extends in a first direction that corresponds to accepting the call. When the user begins the swipe in the incoming-call response-initiation zone but extends that swipe in a second direction (that is, for example, opposite to the first direction) a different incoming call processing action results (such as "ignoring" the incoming call).
