1. A method comprising:
- detecting a touch of an object on a device;
predicting an area of the device that the detected touch will move to;
sending a first set of drive signals to one or more drive lines within the predicted area, the first set of drive signals each having a first number of pulses; and
sending a second set of drive signals to one or more drive lines outside the predicted area, the second set of drive signals each having a second number of pulses, wherein the first number of pulses is greater than the second number of pulses.

Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes detecting a touch of an object on a device. The method also includes predicting an area of the device that the detected touch will move to. The method further includes sending a first set of drive signals to one or more drive lines within the predicted area, the first set of drive signals each having a first number of pulses. The method further includes sending a second set of drive signals to one or more drive lines outside the predicted area, the second set of drive signals each having a second number of pulses. Furthermore, the first number of pulses is greater than the second number of pulses.
