Motion Sense is a radar technology (Soli) that understands human gestures through an interactive hemisphere that can sense and understand movements around the phone. At launch, Soli was available to users under 4 use cases: ❶ swipe for next or previous song ❷ in-app swipe for next or previous song ❸ swipe to dismiss a call ❹ swipe to snooze an alarm

The interaction framework groups human movements according to levels of proximity and engagement between the user and Soli.

The visual expression of Motion Sense takes cues from the ephemeral, the non tactile. Light in the form of a glow lets users know when gestures are available while motion informs whether gestures have been successfully recognized or not.

Motion principles inform the glow's personality making it seem fluid, attentive and rich in appearance despite its simplicity.
