Patent ID: 7536201

Claim:
A mobile device for detecting, tracking, and translating motion into an image that can be rendered on a mobile device display comprising: a processor; a motion sensor contained with the mobile device and coupled with the processor, the motion sensor capable for detecting and tracking motion in two-dimensional plane; a motion selector button disposed on the housing of the mobile device and coupled with the processor, the motion selector button for actuating and de-actuating the motion sensor such that motion is only detected and motion data forwarded to the processor only while the motion selector button is actuated; and a display for a rendering an image corresponding to the detected motion, wherein the processor translates the captured motion data into a scale two-dimensional image that is completely rendered on the mobile device display, wherein the processor determines the two-dimensional plane of motion tracked by the motion sensor to be parallel to the face of the mobile device and the processor continuously re-determines the two-dimensional plane of motion tracked by the motion sensor to adjust for unintended subtle changes in the orientation of the mobile device, detecting a rapid change in the orientation of the face of the mobile device caused by an intentional twisting motion being used to manipulate the scaled two-demensional image, a sudden twisting motion manipulating the scaled two-dimensional image by changing the default width of a line stroke thereby making part of the image bolder.
