Abstract: An information handling system touchscreen discriminates touches with a tool discriminator before analyzing the touches with a touch discriminator that identifies touches as intended or unintended inputs. The tool discriminator isolates touches associated with tools to assign tool functions to tool touches so that touch discriminator analysis is bypassed for tools, thus providing a more rapid and accurate horizontal workspace having tools placed on the touchscreen.

Abstract: Technologies are generally described to provide alternate user interfaces based on user context. In some examples, a user interface system may measure a user characteristic associated with a particular user interface type. The user interface system may then determine whether the measured user characteristic is suitable for use as a user interface input, for example by comparison with a baseline user characteristic. Upon determination that the measured user characteristic is suitable, the user interface system may use the measured user characteristic for user interface purposes. On the other hand, upon determination that the measured user characteristic is not suitable, the user interface system may use a different user interface type to attempt to receive user inputs.
