System for improving user input recognition on touch surfaces

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer readable code executable by one or more processors to:

• obtain sensor data for a hand of a user in relation to a physical input device, comprising:
• obtaining contact data from one or more contact sensors of the physical input device, and
• obtaining non-contact data for the hand of the user from one or more non-contact sensors, wherein the one or more contact sensors are different than the one or more non-contact sensors;
• classify the sensor data as satisfying a tracking mode based on the contact data and the non-contact data;
• and
• process the sensor data to obtain first user input in accordance with the tracking mode.
