Abstract

A trackpad system to filter movement includes a surface, a sensor operably coupled to the surface, a controller operably coupled to the sensor, a bus operably coupled to the controller, a device driver configured to communicate with the bus, and a gesture module configured to communicate with the device driver. The gesture module includes instructions to determine if each contact detected on the surface for an input frame was previously present on the surface. If the contact was previously present on the surface, the system computes, for each axis, position changes for the contact based on a record associated with the contact. The system determines if the position changes are unexpected based on a set of rules. If the position changes are unexpected, the system suppresses a display of movement associated with the contact for the input frame for the axis.
