DETECTING A USER INPUT WITH AN INPUT DEVICE

摘要

An input device and methods for detecting user input using an input device. An example input device includes a multi-touch sensing display configured to detect multiple simultaneous triggers on a surface of the multi-touch sensing display as distinct input events. The input device also includes at least one mechanical control element arranged on the surface of the multi-touch sensing display. The at least one mechanical control element is configured to generate an input event. The input event is detected by the multi-touch sensing display in response to actuation of the at least one mechanical control element.

1. An input device comprising:
a multi-touch sensing display configured to detect multiple simultaneous triggers on a surface of the multi-touch sensing display as distinct input events; a plurality of mechanical control elements arranged on the surface of the multi-touch sensing display, a first mechanical control element of the plurality of mechanical control elements is configured to control a function in response to a first user input; and a touch-sensitive area positioned adjacent to the first mechanical control element and configured to receive a second user input, wherein the second user input corresponds to a detected touch on the touch-sensitive area, and wherein the touch-sensitive area is configured to change the function provided by the first mechanical control element based on a position of the detected touch on the touch-sensitive area.
