Single capacitive touch sensor that detects multi-touch gestures
Hiroyuki Manabe, Hiroshi Inamura · 2014
A technique that allows a single capacitive touch sensor to recognize multi-touch gestures is proposed. Touch, multi-finger swipe and swipe direction are recognized. It does not need a multiplexer or complicated wiring and well suits wearable devices. An experiment with 8 subjects confirms that the proposed technique can recognize multi-touch gestures.
