Abstract
An optical touch apparatus configured to sense a touch operation of a touch object is provided. The optical touch apparatus includes a touch operation surface, a plurality of optical sensors and a touch controller. The touch operation surface includes a plurality of reference points. The touch object performs the touch operation on the touch operation surface. The optical sensors are disposed on a side of the touch operation surface and configured to obtain a plurality of images from different angles. The touch controller is electrically connected to the optical sensors and configured to determine a plurality of orientation points according to the images obtained by the optical sensors. The touch controller compares the orientation points to the reference points and determines a touch position of the touch object on the touch operation surface according to a comparison result. Furthermore, a method for determining a touch position is also provided.
