Abstract
A method for performing a scanning process using adaptive scanning, comprising: driving, by a processing system of an input device, one or more of a first set of electrodes to generate first sensing signals that are detectable by a second set of electrodes; obtaining first resulting signals associated with the first sensing signals via the second set of electrodes; determining, based on the first resulting signals, a first subset of the second set of electrodes that detected an input object on a display device; driving one or more of the first subset of the second set of electrodes that detected the input object to generate second sensing signals that are detectable by the first set of electrodes; and obtaining second resulting signals associated with the second sensing signals via the first set of electrodes.
