Abstract
A method of tracking touches at a touch-sensing surface may include, detecting an initial location of a first contact and an initial location of a second contact at the touch-sensing surface based on a first scan of a touch-sensing surface, detecting a plurality of signal levels caused by the first contact and the second contact during a second scan of the touch-sensing surface, identifying a first signal level of the plurality of signal levels as a local maximum, and locating a lost touch based on one or more signal levels associated with one or more unit cells within a fixed distance from a first unit cell associated with the local maximum.
