Abstract: An electronic device that includes a touch-sensing device having a plurality of touch sensors arranged in a pattern configured to detect user input at a plurality of angular orientations is disclosed. The user input may be a horizontal swipe across the touch-sensing device or a vertical swipe down a vertical centerline of the touch-sensing device. The plurality of touch sensors includes a first sensor, a second sensor, a third sensor, a fourth sensor, and a fifth sensor. The touch sensors are configured to detect, via at least three sensors, the user input for one or more angular orientations of a wireless earbud between 85 degrees Forward of an initial vertical position of the vertical centerline and 85 degrees rearward of the initial vertical position of the vertical centerline.

Abstract: A wireless accessory has one or more sensors positioned at an outer periphery of its housing, thereby forming a knob-like input. The sensors may be configured to detect a change in contact force or contact location of first and second fingertips at respective first and second opposite sides of the periphery. An input gesture is determined based on the detected change, and a command corresponding to the gesture may be executed.

Abstract: This document describes systems and techniques for determining whether an earbud is removed from within an ear of a user. The systems and techniques employ an earbud including a housing having a distal end and a proximal end. The distal end includes a magnetically-sensitive section, the distal end of the housing being configured to be magnetically attracted to a charging receptacle and insertable within an ear of a user. On-head detection (OHD) logic is electrically coupled to the magnetically-sensitive section at the distal end, the OHD logic configured to determine based on a distal-end capacitance measured using the magnetically-sensitive section whether the distal end of the housing is within the ear of the user.
