Method and controller for identifying a drag gesture
First Claim
1. A method of identifying a drag gesture, with which the drag gesture is performed on a touch device, the method comprising follow steps:
- i. detecting a first appearance of an object on the touch device;
ii. detecting a second appearance of the object on the touch device; and
iii. a sum of time duration of the first appearance and time span between an end of the first appearance time duration and a start of the second appearance being smaller than a first reference time and meeting one of following two situation, then generating a drag signal;
(C) another summation of the first appearance time duration, the time span and a second appearance time duration being not less than the reference time value; and
(D) an accumulated displacement of the second appearance time duration being not less than a reference displacement.

Abstract
A method of identifying a drag gesture, with which the drag gesture is performed on a touch device and the method is characterized in that a drag signal can be generated when a sum of time duration of the first appearance and time span between an end of the first appearance time duration and a start of the second appearance is less than a first reference time, a sum of the first appearance time duration, the time span and a second appearance time duration is not less than the reference time value and an accumulated displacement of the second appearance time duration is not less than a reference displacement.

8. A controller of a touch device for identifying movements of an object on the touch device, comprising:
-
an operational unit, detecting every appearance of the object on the touch device and producing a respective tap signal and the respective tap signal being generated corresponding to a start of the appearance on the touch device and being terminated when that appearance has already finished; and
A gesture unit, being connected to the operational unit so as to receive the tap signal and based on the tap signal to calculate the time duration of the object appearing on the touch device and then identify the action of the object;
wherein, the gesture unit receives from the operational unit a first tap signal and a second tap signal corresponding to the first and second appearance of the object on the touch device respectively;
the gesture unit also computes a summation of time duration of the first appearance and time span between an end of the first appearance time duration and a start of the second appearance being less than a first reference time and compares the result with the first reference time and if it qualifies one of the two conditions below, the gesture unit will produce a corresponding drag signal;
A) if the summation of the first appearance time duration, the time span between the end of the first appearance time duration and the start of the second appearance is not less than a reference time value; and
B) If the accumulated displacement of the second appearance time duration is not less than a reference displacement. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A gesture unit of the touch device for identifying movement of an object on the touch device;
- wherein the gesture unit receives from the touch device a first tap signal and a second tap signal generated corresponding to a first and second appearances of the object on the touch device respectively, computes a sum of a first appearance time duration and a time span between an end of the first appearance and a start of the second appearance and compares the sum with the a first reference time and in case of the sum being smaller than the first reference time value, a determination is done after one of two following conditions being met and the gesture unit generates a corresponding drag gesture;
A) If the sum of the first appearance time duration, the time span is not less than a reference time value; and
B) If an accumulated displacement of the second appearance time duration is not less than a reference displacement. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
