Touched position detection method for touch panel
First Claim
1. A touched position detection method for a touch panel for detecting a touched position, based on measured values by a plurality of sensors, comprising:
- a step of selecting sensors located in a vicinity of a sensor showing a measured value higher than a predetermined level; and
a step of applying a first noise reduction parameter to measured values by the selected sensors and applying a second noise reduction parameter which is different from the first noise reduction parameter to measured values by other sensors having a measured value lower than the measured value of the selected sensors,wherein the first and second noise reduction parameters are respectively predetermined values to be subtracted from a measured value by a sensor to be referred to in a touched position calculation process.

Abstract
In a touched position detection method for a touch panel for detecting a touched position, based on measured values by a plurality of sensors, presence of a touch is determined when a measured value by a sensor exceeds a touch threshold. As a touch threshold, a value which cannot be attained due to a mere noise but can due to presence of a touch is set. With respect to sensors located in the vicinity of a sensor showing a high measured value, a higher weighted value is applied to modify a measured value in a touched position calculation process than that to be applied to other sensors.

4. A touched position detection method for a touch panel for detecting a touched position, based on current measured values by sensors and reference values which are measured values by sensors with absence of a touch, comprising:
-
a step of selecting sensors located in a vicinity of a sensor showing a measured value higher than a predetermined level, wherein content of an update process for updating the reference values is controlled depending on whether or not sensors of concern are included in the selected sensors and, a step of applying a first noise reduction parameter to measured values by the selected sensors and applying a second noise reduction parameter which is different from the first noise reduction parameter to measured values by other sensors having a measured value lower than the measured value of the selected sensors, wherein the first and second noise reduction parameters are respectively predetermined values to be subtracted from a measured value by a sensor to be referred to in a touched position calculation process. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6)
