Abstract
A method for reducing line display latency on a touchpad device is disclosed. The method comprises storing information regarding a plurality of prior touch events on a touch screen of the touchpad device into an event buffer. It further comprises determining an average speed and a predicted direction of motion of a user interaction with the touch screen using the plurality of prior touch events. Next, it comprises calculating a first prediction point using the average speed, the predicted direction, and a last known touch event on the touch screen. Subsequently, it comprises applying weighted filtering on the first prediction point using a measured line curvature to determine a second prediction point. Finally, it comprises rendering a prediction line between the last known touch event on the touch screen and the second prediction point.
