Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for providing dynamically positioned UI controls are disclosed. In one aspect, the method comprises performing a calibration a client device to facilitate ergonomic placement of at least one control element associated with a virtual control on the display. Calibration comprises prompting a user to grip the device in a first orientation. Then one or more grip locations at which the device is being gripped while in the first orientation are detected. The calibration also comprises prompting the user to touch a region of the display while maintaining the orientation and the grip. A touch input is detected within the display region subsequent to the prompting. Then, subsequent to the calibration, the at least one control element can be displayed on the display based on the calibration.

Abstract: A user interface implemented on a mobile device touchscreen may detect a user input to the touchscreen triggering activation of an expanded reach mode. In an expanded reach mode, implemented functions may include identifying a touch location based on a detected touch event on the touchscreen, identifying a selectable graphical user interface (GUI) object having an edge closest to a touch-extension position that is based on the identified touch location, selecting the identified GUI object as a closest GUI object and displaying a first selection indicator in association with the identified GUI object, and determining whether the identified GUI object has remained the closest GUI object for longer than a predetermined time threshold. If the identified GUI object has remained the closest GUI object longer than a time threshold, activation of the identified GUI object may be enabled. An indication of the touch-extension position may be projected on the touchscreen.
