Abstract: A computer system is described for dynamically adapting the size of touch sensitive areas or "buttons" on touch screens in response to the motor skill level of the user. Data from sensors arrayed around a touch screen send small changes in the user's hand position, and pass this data to a filter which separates the component of the motion due to hand tremor from the intentional motion component. The information about the extent of the hand tremor can be used to either dynamically increase the size of a button as the user's hand is in motion, or to retrieve and display a fixed screen layout with appropriately large buttons.
