Abstract:
An electronic device and method may provide accurate touch input recognition in a touch key area with high sensitivity while preventing false inputs from proximate touches. The method may involve recognizing a first signal and a second signal detected by an input on the touch key area; and processing the input on the touch key area based on at least a comparison result of the first signal and the second signal. The first and second signals may be indicative of capacitance changes occurring at different locations within the touch key area.
