Abstract

See full text

A process for detecting the point of touching of a tactile surface. A high frequency signal is sequentially supplied to four corners of a plate having a capacitive surface. This is accomplished by supplying one diagonal with the others being idle. The output voltages are measured at the four corners for all the various possible positions of touching. Relations between voltages are established from these measurements obtained for each diagonal. During touching, the relations obtained are compared with those stored in order to locate the point of touching.
