Abstract
Provided are systems and methods for providing enhanced touch sensing. One system providing enhanced touch sensing includes a multi-mode touch screen and a processor configured to apply at least one test signal to a sense element of the multi-mode touch screen, detect at least one return signal from the sense element, and then determine a relative position of an object corresponding to the at least one return signal, the multi-mode touch screen being capable of sensing the first object using first and second detection modes. One multi-mode touch screen comprises a multi-mode multi-touch touch screen. One processor is configured to apply an adaptive test signal to a sense element of a touch screen.

-
a multi-mode touch screen including a plurality of touch sensors arranged in a matrix and configured to detect at least one object; circuitry configured to provide a test signal to at least one of the touch sensors, receive a return signal from the at least one of the touch sensors, and determine whether the at least one of the touch sensors detects the at least one object based on the return signal, wherein the touch sensors detect the object using at least one of plural capacitive sensing modes and a resistive sensing mode. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
