Abstract
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to a technique for determining a valid touch event on a touch sensitive device. At least two touch events are received from a touch interface. The at least two touch events are combined if a time difference between each of the at least two touch events is less than a time threshold and a proximity between each of the at least two touch events is less than a proximity threshold. A valid touch event is determined if a combined pressure indicator of a combined touch event is greater than a pressure threshold.
Claims24
A method, comprising:
- receiving touch events on a touch interface;
- wherein each of the touch events comprises a position indicator, a pressure indicator and a time stamp;
- and
- calculating a proximity between each of the touch events based on the position indicator of the touch events;
- wherein a time difference between each of the touch events is calculated based on the time stamp of the touch events.
An apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor configured to
- receive touch events on a touch interface;
- wherein each of the touch events comprises a position indicator, a pressure indicator and a time stamp;
- and
- calculate a proximity between each of the touch events based on the position indicator of the touch events;
- wherein a time difference between each of the touch events is calculated based on the time stamp of the touch events.
A computer-program embodied on a non-transitory computer-readable medium configured to cause at least one processor to:
- receive touch events on a touch interface;
- wherein each of the touch events comprises a position indicator, a pressure indicator and a time stamp;
- and
- calculate a proximity between each of the touch events based on the position indicator of the touch events;
- wherein a time difference between each of the touch events is calculated based on the time stamp of the touch events.
