1. A method comprising:
- receiving one or more first output signals from a first area of a touch-sensitive position sensor, the first output signals corresponding to a first touch or proximity within the first area of the touch-sensitive position sensor;
receiving one or more second output signals from a second area of the touch-sensitive position sensor, the second output signals corresponding to a second touch or proximity within the second area of the touch-sensitive position sensor;
calculating a first touch-position estimate based on the first output signals;
calculating a second touch-position estimate based on the second output signals; and
determining, based at least in part on the first and second touch-position estimates, an intended-touch location with respect to the touch-sensitive position sensor.

8. A system comprising:
-
a touch-sensitive position sensor comprising a first area and a second area; and one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media embodying logic that is configured when executed to; receive one or more first output signals from the first area, the first out put signals corresponding to a first touch or proximity within the first area of the touch-sensitive position sensor; receive one or more second output signals from the second area, the second output signals corresponding to a second touch or proximity within the second area of the touch-sensitive position sensor; calculate a first touch-position estimate based on the first output signals; calculate a second touch-position estimate based on the second output signals; and determine, based at least in part on the first and second touch-position estimates, an intended-touch location with respect to the touch-sensitive position sensor. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
