Abstract

A computing device, such as a wearable device, may include a gesture sensor that generates a gesture signal in response to a gesture of a user performed while the computing device is being worn or held by the user. A calibration sensor may generate a calibration signal characterizing a degree of tightness with which the computing device is being worn or held by the user. The gesture signal may be calibrated using the calibration signal, to obtain a calibrated gesture signal that is calibrated with respect to the degree of tightness. At least one function of the at least one computing device may be implemented, based on the calibrated gesture signal.
