Abstract
A portable computing device includes a housing having a region with a plurality of physical features configured to be swiped by a user during a first period, a first accelerometer configured to determine first perturbations during the first period, a second accelerometer configured to determine second perturbations during the first period of time, and a processor coupled to the first and second accelerometer and configured to determine whether the user has swiped the region during the first period of time in response to the first perturbations and the second perturbations.
