Abstract
Touch sensor panels/screens can include a first region having a plurality of touch electrodes and a second region without touch electrodes. In some examples, to improve touch sensing performance, a first algorithm or a second algorithm is applied to determine whether an object corresponding to the touch patch is in contact with the touch screen. Whether to apply the first algorithm or the second algorithm is optionally dependent on the location of the touch patch.
