1. An acoustic touch apparatus that distinguishes simultaneous touches in a touch region, comprising a substrate that has two opposite surfaces and that is adapted to propagate surface acoustic waves along each opposite surface;

  • a transmitting element that is adapted to transmit propagating surface acoustic waves for each opposite surface; and

    a receiving element that is adapted to receive the propagating surface acoustic waves for each opposite surface, one of said opposite surfaces having the touch region defined thereon and said substrate being adapted to transfer, through the substrate, surface acoustic waves between the opposite surfaces so as to alternate in the touch region the propagating surface acoustic waves from each opposite surface.
