Abstract

Adapting a mobile user interface to unfavorable usage conditions includes detecting undesirable motion of the mobile device and providing adaptations to the mobile device user interface according to the undesirable motion, where the adaptations include at least one of: enlarging graphical elements of the mobile device, providing digital stabilization of images on the mobile device, providing additional warnings and user input options for critical operations, using modified gesture recognition algorithms, and adjusting system response to typing and drawing. The undesirable motion may be momentary or persistent. The adaptations that are provided may vary according to whether the undesirable motion is momentary or persistent. Undesirable motion that is momentary may be a bump, a dive and/or a sharp road turn. Undesirable motion that is persistent may include railroad vibration, plane vibration, and/or vessel pitching. The undesirable motion may be categorized by intensity as low, medium and high intensity.
