Abstract

See full text

Method and apparatus for identifying locations on a touchscreen of at least two touch events that occur within a predetermined time of one another comprises monitoring the touchscreen for touch events. Each touch event occurs at a discrete location on the touchscreen defined by an XY coordinate pair. A coordinate series is generated including at least two X coordinates and at least two Y coordinates when first and second touch events occur within a predetermined time of one another. When a release event occurs, the release event is correlated with one of the X coordinates and one of the Y coordinates in the coordinate series to form a first XY coordinate pair corresponding to the first touch event. The first XY coordinate pair associated with the first touch event is output.
