ELECTRODE CONFIGURATION, HAND-HELD DEVICE AS WELL AS METHOD FOR THE DETECTION OF A TOUCH OF A HAND-HELD DEVICE

摘要

The present invention provides an electrode configuration for a capacitive sensor device of a hand-held device for the touch detection of a user, wherein the electrode configuration comprises at least one transmitting electrode, at least one receiving electrode and at least one first field measuring electrode. The electrode configuration according to the present invention enables a detection of the position of the hand-held device relative to the body of a user. The invention also provides a method for the detection of a touch of a hand-held device by a user, wherein the method is adjusted to detect the position of the hand-held device relative to the body of a user.
