Input classification for multi-touch systems

A system comprising:

• one or more computers configured to perform operations comprising:
• receiving data describing a first region of contact, a second region of contact having a perimeter, and a third region of contact with a touch sensitive display, the first, second, and third regions of contact being separate from each other;
• classifying the first region of contact as a touch point provided by a user's body part;
• classifying the second region of contact as incidental touch input provided by a user's resting body part;
• classifying the third region of contact as a stylus input;
• determining a first point of the third region of contact where capacitance is highest in the third region of contact, and determining a second point of the second region of contact where capacitance is highest in the second region of contact;
• defining an occlusion region as a triangular region that extends between the second region of contact and the third region of contact, with a vertex located at the first point of the third region of contact and a base that intersects the second point of the second region of contact, a length of the base extending past the perimeter of the second region of contact, such that an area of the occlusion region covers the perimeter of the second region of contact, or as a kite-shaped region with a vertex located at the first point of the third region of contact and an intersection of a first diagonal and a second diagonal of the kite-shaped region located at the second point of the second region of contact, lengths of the first and second diagonals extending past the perimeter of the second region of contact, such that the area of the occlusion region covers the perimeter of the second region of contact;
• determining a location of the touch point associated with the first region of contact;
• comparing the location of the touch point associated with the first region of contact to the occlusion region;
• based on comparing the location of the touch point associated with the first region of contact to the occlusion region, determining that the touch point associated with the first region of contact falls within the occlusion region;
• and
• based on the determination that the touch point associated with the first region of contact falls within the occlusion region, determining that the touch point associated with the first region of contact corresponds to incidental touch input.
