Abstract

See full text

In accordance with one or more embodiments, a media device includes a radial gesture controller configured to identify a plurality of contemporaneous user touchpoints of a touch screen, and to generate radial gesture control data that includes a radial distance between a first of the plurality of contemporaneous user touchpoints about a second of the plurality of contemporaneous user touchpoints and an angular deviation of a first of the plurality of contemporaneous user touchpoints about a second of the plurality of contemporaneous user touchpoints. The radial gesture control data is used to generate control data, such as linear media control data for controlling a media player based on the radial distance and the angular deviation. Other embodiments are disclosed.
