Abstract
A touch emulator includes a transparent surface portion conformable to a touch screen of a device, the surface portion providing signals to the touch screen to emulate an input signal to the touch screen and includes a programmable controller that causes the surface portion to automatically provide specific signals at particular times to the touch screen to emulate user interaction with the device. The device may be a mobile device, such as a tablet with a touch enabled screen. The surface portion may provide signals that disrupt the capacitive electrical field of the touch screen. The programmable controller may be detachable from the surface portion. No signals may be provided from the programmable controller to the surface portion when the programmable controller is detached from the surface portion. The surface portion may provide screen protection for the touch screen. The touch emulator may receive touch input from a user.
