Abstract:
This disclosure relates to detecting hand gesture input using an electronic device, such as a wearable device strapped to a wrist. The device can have multiple photodiodes, each sensing light at a different position on a surface of the device that faces skin of a user. Examples of the disclosure detect hand gestures by recognizing patterns in sensor data that are characteristic of each hand gesture, as the tissue expands and contracts and anatomical features in the tissue move during the gesture.

Claim (Index 1):
A device comprising:\n a plurality of light emitters configured to emit light at a tissue of a user; a plurality of photodiodes configured to sense at least a portion of a reflection of the emitted light and generate sensor data indicative of movement of anatomic features in the tissue of the user; a plurality of channels, each channel associated with one of the plurality of light emitters and one of the plurality of photodiodes and further associated with a signal pattern including the sensor data from the respective photodiode; and logic configured to:\n receive the signal patterns of the plurality of channels, \n determine signal characteristics from the signal patterns, and \n determine a hand gesture from the determined signal characteristics.
