Abstract
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium may include instructions stored thereon. When executed by at least one processor, the instructions may be configured to cause a computing system including a tactile input device to at least detect a depression of the tactile input device, detect a number of contacts at the tactile input device, each of the detected contacts being associated with a duration and a distance moved, and determine, based on the number of detected contacts on the tactile input device, the durations of the detected contacts, and the distances moved of the detected contacts, a type of input to process.
