Abstract
Apparatus for a touch sensor, the apparatus comprising circuitry for processing signaling to determine the detection of touch input, wherein the circuitry for processing is arranged to detect touch input by comparing touch signaling with one or more reference thresholds, and wherein the circuitry for processing is arranged to perform a first touch calibration, following the detection of the first touch, to provide a first reference threshold which compensates for the signaling associated with the first touch, and wherein the circuitry for processing is arranged to detect a subsequent next touch, using the first reference threshold, as the reference threshold for detection of said next subsequent touch.

25. An apparatus for a touch sensor, the apparatus comprising:
-
circuitry for processing signaling to determine the respective locations of multiple concurrent touch inputs, wherein the circuitry for processing is configured to; perform a first touch calibration, following the detection of a first touch, to provide a first reference threshold which compensates for the signaling associated with the first touch, and detect the location of a subsequent next concurrent touch, using the first reference threshold, as the reference threshold for detection of the location of said concurrent subsequent touch. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 43)
