Abstract:
Methods and devices for adjusting a power mode of a display are disclosed. An example method includes detecting a set of contact signals on a surface of the device and determining whether the set of contact signals correspond to a contact signature associated with an in-use state of the display. The example method further includes transitioning the power mode of the display to a power saving mode in response to determining that the set of contact signals do not correspond to the contact signature associated with the in-use state of the display, and retaining the power mode of the display in a current power mode in response to determining that the set of contact signals correspond to the contact signature associated with the in-use state of the display. An additional example method may further include detecting whether a proximity sensor at the device is occluded prior to the transition.

Claim (Index 8):
An apparatus for adjusting a power mode of a display of a device, comprising:\n a memory; and a processor in communication with the memory, wherein the processor is configured to:\n detect a set of contact signals on a touch surface of the device; \n determine whether the set of contact signals correspond to a contact signature associated with an in-use state of the display based on one or more of a signal strength or a duration corresponding to the set of contact signals, and based on a number of contacts of an object with the touch surface of the display or a movement of the contacts of the object, wherein the contact signature corresponds to one or more mappings of areas of the contacts of the object; \n transition the power mode of the display to a power saving mode in response to determining that the set of contact signals do not correspond to the contact signature associated with the in-use state of the display; and \n retain the power mode of the display in a current power mode in response to determining that the set of contact signals correspond to the contact signature associated with the in-use state of the display.
