Abstract
A spurious input detection system includes a touch input display, a touch input surface, and a non-transitory, computer-readable medium. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium includes instructions that, when executed by a processor, provide a spurious input detection engine. The spurious input detection engine is operable to receive a first input from the touch input display and a second input from the touch input surface. The spurious input detection engine is further operable to determine that the first input is a spurious input based on a combination of the first input and the second input. The spurious input detection engine will cause the first input to be disregarded in response to determining that it is a spurious input.
Claims20
A spurious input detection system, comprising:
- a touch input display;
- a touch input surface;
- and
- a non-transitory, computer-readable medium including instructions that, when executed by a processor, provide a spurious input detection engine that is configured to:
- receive a first input from the touch input display;
- receive a second input from the touch input surface;
- and
- determine that the first input is a spurious input based on a combination of the first input and the second input;
- and
- disregard the first input in response to determining that the first input is a spurious input.
A computing system, comprising:
- a chassis including a first side and a second side that is opposite the chassis from the first side;
- a processor housed in the chassis;
- a touch input display located on the first side of the chassis;
- a touch input surface located on the second side of the chassis;
- and
- a non-transitory, computer-readable medium housed in the chassis, coupled to the processor, and including instructions that, when executed by the processor, provide a spurious input detection engine that is configured to:
- receive a first input from the touch input display;
- receive a second input from the touch input surface;
- and
- determine that the first input is a spurious input based on a combination of the first input and the second input;
- and
- disregard the first input in response to determining that the first input is a spurious input.
A method for detecting spurious inputs, comprising:
- providing a chassis including a touch input display located on a first side of the chassis and a touch input surface located on a second side of the chassis that is opposite the first side;
- receiving a first input from the touch input display;
- receiving a second input from the touch input surface;
- and
- determining that the first input is a spurious input based on a combination of the first input and the second input;
- and
- disregarding the first input in response to determining that the first input is a spurious input.
The method of claim 16, wherein the disregarding the first input includes disabling a portion of the touch input display that is associated with the first input.
