Abstract: A device may include a capacitance sensor; an overlay positioned near the capacitance sensor, the overlay including a touch surface opposite to an underside of the overlay, where the underside is positioned near the capacitance sensor; a controller; memory in communication with the controller and including programmed instructions that, when executed, cause the controller to detect a proximity value of an object with a capacitance sensor, where a touch surface is located between the capacitance sensor and the object; determine a planar radial distance of the object away from a predetermined location on the touch surface; and change the proximity value based, at least in part, on the planar radial distance.

Abstract: A capacitance sensing module may include a capacitance sensor; a pressure sensor in mechanical communication with the capacitance sensor; a processor and memory; programmed instructions stored in the memory to cause the processor, when executed, to determine, with the capacitance sensor, a location of a user input; determine, with the pressure sensor, a pressure value of the user input applied to the capacitance sensor; and determine whether the pressure value exceeds a non-uniform actuation threshold value where the non-uniform actuation threshold value is based, at least in part, on the location of the user input on the capacitance sensor.

Abstract: A system and method for detecting and tracking multiple objects on a touchpad or touchscreen, wherein the method provides a new data collection algorithm, wherein the method reduces a calculation burden on a processor performing detection and tracking algorithms, wherein multiple objects are treated as elements of a single object and not as separate objects, wherein the location of the objects are treated as end-points of a single object when two objects are detected, and treated as a perimeter or boundary when more than two objects are detected.
