1. A multi-touch input processing method comprising:

  • determining whether an overlapping region exists between a first input region and a second input region, when a multi-touch input occurs on a touch panel;

    computing a center point of the first input region, a center point of the second input region, and a center point of the overlapping region when the overlapping region exists;

    determining a first straight line passing through the center point of the first input region, a second straight line passing through the center point of the second input region, and a third straight line passing through the center point of the overlapping region;

    computing the sum of touch input forces of a peripheral region of each of the first straight line, the second straight line, and the third straight line; and

    comparing the sum of the touch input forces of the peripheral region of the first straight line or the second straight line with the sum of touch input forces of the peripheral region of the third straight line to determine whether to merge the first input region and the second input region.
