PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING TOUCH-SENSITIVE DISPLAY AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING SAME

摘要

A method includes detecting first and second touches on the touch-sensitive display and determining a location of each of the first and second touches, determining, by a plurality of force sensors, reaction forces, for the first and second touches, and determining a respective applied force for each of the first and second touches based on the reaction forces and the locations of the first and second touches.

主权项

1. A method comprising:
detecting first and second touches on the touch-sensitive display that overlap in time such that each touch applies a respective force at a same time on the touch-sensitive display; and determining a location of each of the first and second touches utilizing capacitive touch sensors of the touch-sensitive display; determining, by a plurality of force sensors, reaction forces for the first and second touches; and in response to detecting the first and second touches and determining the location of each of the first and second touches utilizing the capacitive touch sensors, determining a respective applied force for each of the first and second touches based on the determined reaction forces and the locations of the first and second touches determined utilizing the capacitive touch sensors.
