Abstract
Apparatuses and methods of glove touch detection are described. One method performs a first scan to detect an object proximate to a sense array. The first scan comprises a first sensitivity parameter. The method compares touch data from the first scan against a plurality of thresholds. The method performs a second scan to detect a touch event when the first scan's touch data exceeds a glove saturation threshold of the plurality of thresholds. The second scan comprising a second sensitivity parameter that is different than the first sensitivity parameter. The method reports a glove touch event when the first scan's touch data does not exceed the glove saturation threshold and exceeds a glove-reporting threshold of the plurality of thresholds.
