MULTI-POINT DETECTION ON A SINGLE-POINT DETECTION DIGITIZER
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for recognizing a multi-point gesture provided to a digitizer, the method comprising:
- detecting outputs from a digitizer system corresponding to a multi-point interaction, the digitizer system including a digitizer sensor;
determining a region incorporating possible locations derivable from the outputs detected;
tracking the region over a time period of the multi-point interaction;
determining a change in at least one spatial feature of the region during the multi-point interaction; and
recognizing the gesture in response to a pre-deflined change.

18. A method for providing multi-point functionality on a single point detection digitizer, the method comprising:
-
detecting a multi-point interaction from outputs of a single point detection digitizer system, wherein the digitizer system includes a digitizer sensor; determining at least one spatial feature of the interaction; tracking the at least one spatial feature; and identifying a functionality of the multi-point interaction responsive to a pre-defined change in the at least one spatial feature. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38)

39. A method for providing multi-point functionality on a single point detection digitizer, the method comprising:
-
detecting a multi-point interaction from outputs of a single point detection digitizer system, wherein one interaction location is stationary during the multi-point interaction; identifying the location of the stationary interaction; and tracking the location of the other interaction based on knowledge of the location of the stationary interaction. - View Dependent Claims (40, 41, 42)
