Abstract: Computing devices may include one or more swiping interfaces provided on a base portion and/or a display portion of the computing device. For example, a computing device may include a display disposed within a housing, and a plurality of touch cells in a linear arrangement along an edge portion of the housing. Each of the plurality of touch cells may emit touch fields through the housing at a corresponding surface of the housing. The computing device may also include a processor that can execute machine-readable instructions, allowing the computing device to receive a plurality touch input signals from the plurality of touch cells, and to operate the computing device in response to the received plurality of touch input signals.

Abstract: Computing devices having swiping interfaces and methods of operating the same are disclosed herein. A disclosed example computing device includes a first housing, a display disposed within the first housing, a first plurality of touch cells disposed on an edge of the first housing in a linear arrangement within the first housing outside the display, wherein the first plurality of touch cells emit respective ones of a first plurality of touch fields through the first housing on a first surface of the first housing, a memory storing machine-readable instructions, and a processor to execute the machine-readable instructions to at least receive a first plurality touch input signals from the first plurality of touch cells, and to operate the computing device to unlock the computing according to the first plurality of touch input signals.
