Abstract
A method includes receiving a first output from a first sensor of an electronic device and receiving a second output from a second sensor of the electronic device. The first sensor has a first sensor type and the second sensor has a second sensor type that is different from the first sensor type. The method also includes detecting a gesture based on the first output and the second output according to a complementary voting scheme that is at least partially based on gesture complexity.
