Abstract

A method includes, for a first x-y position of a sensing grid, obtaining first sensed data. The method further includes, for a first sense data layer, determining whether the first sensed data compares favorably to a threshold for the first sense data layer. The method further includes, when the first sensed data compares favorably to the threshold for the first sense data layer; storing a first n-bit value and storing a second n-bit value when it does not. The method further includes, for a second sense data layer, determining whether the first sensed data compares favorably to a threshold for the second sense data layer. The method further includes, when the first sensed data compares favorably to the threshold for the second sense data layer; storing the first n-bit value and storing the second n-bit value when it does not. The method includes similar processing for a second x-y position.
