WIRELESS DEVICE APPLICATION INTERACTION VIA EXTERNAL CONTROL DETECTION

Wireless device application interaction via external control detection comprises identifying a first position of a wireless device and identifying a first change in the wireless device's position. The method may also provide calculating a first distance vector. The method may also perform comparing the first distance vector to a first threshold distance and calculating a second distance vector based on a distance between the second position and a third position and comparing the second distance vector to a second threshold distance, and changing a current operating state of the wireless device to a different operating state if the first distance vector exceeds the first minimum distance and the second distance vector does not exceed the first maximum distance.
