1. A system, comprising:
- a touch-screen having multiple light transceivers configured to emit and detect light; and
processing logic coupled to the light transceivers, the processing logic configured to obtain spatial dimension information of multiple possible touch points on said touch-screen using said detected light;
wherein the processing logic uses the spatial information to predict which of the multiple possible touch points comprise actual touch points and which of the multiple possible touch points comprise phantom touch points.

Abstract
A system comprises a touch-screen having multiple light transceivers configured to emit and detect light. The system also comprises processing logic coupled to the light transceivers, where the processing logic is configured to obtain spatial dimension information of multiple possible touch points on the touch-screen using the detected light. The processing logic uses the spatial information to predict which of the multiple possible touch points comprise actual touch points and which of the multiple possible touch points comprise phantom touch points.
