Abstract

A method of performing a two-finger gesture when the absolute position of the fingers does not need to be known in order to perform the gesture. A touch sensor may provide a false or ghosted position and a real position for each actual finger on the touch sensor. The real position for each finger is located by finding a strongest signal when performing a short aperture measurement relative to one side of the touch sensor so that the direction of a rotation gesture can be determined. The position of fingers in single finger and multi-finger gestures may be determined using de-ghosted weighted average and weighted absolute deviation calculations.
