Abstract
A touch sensing system is configured to determine a state of a paper material indicative of a touch input on the paper material. The actions include receiving one or more values of features representing physical properties of a paper material. The system generates, by a pair of electrodes in a conductive material that is electrically connected with the paper material, an electric field in the conductive material. The paper material is configured to shunt current from the conductive material when the paper material is touched. The system measures the electric field in the conductive material in the conductive material. The system generates an approximation of the electric field in the conductive material. The system determines with a classifier a state of the paper material indicative of a touch input on the paper material.
