Abstract: A level of wear of a stylus tip can be estimated and in accordance with a determination that the level of wear of the stylus tip exceeds a threshold, the stylus input functionality of an electronic device can be disabled. The threshold can be set such that the stylus can be disabled before the stylus sensing performance degrades to a degree perceptible to a human and/or before exposing internal portions of the stylus that can scratch a touch screen. Additionally or alternatively, a notification can be provided to indicate to a user that the stylus tip should be replaced. In some examples, the estimated level of wear can also be used to provide warning notifications. Stylus tip wear can be estimated, for example, based on a detected total signal strength or based on an estimated total distance traversed by the stylus tip across a surface.

Abstract: The dynamic adjusting of the conditions for identifying inputs as touching a touch-sensitive device is discloses. In some examples, in addition to using a signal density make threshold to identify an input patch as touching the surface, a signal density stability threshold can be used to identify the input patch as touching the surface. In some examples, a weighted average of peak signal density contributions from recent identified touches can be computed to dynamically adjust the make threshold for new input patches. In other examples, a new input patch identified as associated with the same path as an earlier touch can have its “make” threshold dynamically adjusted based on the earlier touch without computing a weighted average.

Abstract: A touch sensitive device that detects the occurrence of an electrostatic discharge event on the device by analyzing an acquired touch image for characteristics associated with the occurrence of an ESD event is provided. An acquired touch image is analyzed for characteristics that differentiate it from a touch image generated by a user input and are correlated with an expected touch image generated by an ESD event.

Abstract: This relates to a method of extrapolating proximity information to generate a border column or row of touch nodes (also known as touch pixels) and then fitting an ellipse to the contact patch including the extrapolated border touch nodes. Additionally, a contact can be identified as a thumb based on both its major axis and its distance to an edge of the touch sensing surface.

Abstract: An electronic device detects a user input while in a lower energy consumption state. After a latency period, while in a higher energy consumption state, the electronic device delivers to an application a sequence of input events that represent the user input, including, in sequence: a first input event, a second input event and a third input event that represent the user input at first, second and third input times and is delivered at first, second and third delivery times. A time interval between the second input time and the second delivery time is smaller than a time interval between the first input time and the first delivery time, and a time interval between the third input time and the third delivery time is smaller than the time interval between the second input time and the second delivery time.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an electronic device in communication with a display and a touch-sensitive surface displays a user interface, and while displaying the user interface, the electronic device receives touch input comprising a contact detected on the touch-sensitive surface. In some embodiments, in response to receiving the touch input, and in accordance with a determination that the touch input satisfies first criteria, wherein the first criteria include a requirement that the contact continues to be detected in a predefined region of the touch-sensitive surface for longer than a time threshold, the electronic device displays a first indication that further input of a first type detected at the touch sensitive surface will cause the device to display a first system user interface. In some embodiments, in accordance with a determination that the touch input does not satisfy the first criteria, the electronic device forgoes displaying the first indication.

Abstract: Touch input processing for touch-sensitive devices can be used to filter unintended contact detected on a touch-sensitive surface. Moist or wet fabrics on the edge of a touch-sensitive surface can be erroneously be detected as touch input and degrade touch performance. In some examples, input paths can be classified as touch paths or non-touch paths (corresponding to wet fabrics). Non-touch paths can be filtered out to avoid unintended input to a touch-sensitive device. Classifying paths can improve touch performance in environments where a wet fabric may come in contact with the edge of the touch-sensitive surface. In some examples, paths can be classified as touch paths or non-touch paths based on characteristics of edge touch nodes. In some examples, paths can be classified as touch paths or non-touch paths based on a determined state.

Abstract: An electronic device such as a portable electronic device may have display with a capacitive touch sensor. A cover may have a front portion and a rear portion that bend along a bend axis. The front portion may overlap the display when the cover is closed. Conductive structures such as a patterned conductive layer having elongated strips of conductive material separated by gaps or another predetermined pattern may be formed in the front portion of a cover or other portion of a cover that overlaps the display and capacitive touch sensor when the cover is closed. Control circuitry in the device can gather capacitance images with the touch sensor and can detect when the cover has transitioned from open to closed or from closed to open from whether the predetermined pattern becomes present or becomes absent in the capacitance images.
