INPUT METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CAPACITIVE TOUCH SCREEN TERMINAL

摘要

An input method and apparatus for implementing a non-contact touch sensing method according to a corresponding function in a capacitive touch screen terminal. The sensed capacitance varies as a finger or special pointer approaches the surface of the touchscreen without making actual contact, and different thresholds of capacitance can be used to trigger different functions. The method preferably includes sensing a request of a corresponding function, verifying whether or not the requested corresponding function is performed by a non-contact touch sensing method, and implementing a non-contact touch sensing region set for the corresponding function when the corresponding function is performed by the non-contact touch sensing method.
