Abstract
Examples are disclosed relating to computing devices and methods for performing touch detection within a virtual trackpad area of a touch screen display. In one example, a non-trackpad touch input signal is received from outside the virtual trackpad area and processed with at least a jitter restrictor algorithm that applies a non-trackpad distance between reported touch locations. A virtual trackpad touch input signal is received from within the virtual trackpad area. On condition of determining that the virtual trackpad touch input signal is received from within the virtual trackpad area, the virtual trackpad touch input signal is processed with the jitter restrictor algorithm that applies a virtual trackpad distance between reported touch locations that is smaller than the non-trackpad distance between reported touch locations.
