METHOD FOR OBTAINING TOUCH INPUT IN ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMBINING SELF AND MUTUAL CAPACITANCE MEASUREMENTS

摘要

A method for an electronic device to control a function in response to an input is provided. The method includes detecting a plurality of touch inputs of at least one object located outside the electronic device, through a touch sensor functionally connected with the electronic device, detecting a proximity input of the at least one object, and determining at least one of the plurality of touch inputs as an input for controlling the electronic device, based on the proximity input.
