Abstract: The various implementations described herein include systems, methods and/or devices used to enable false touch detection. An exemplary method is performed at a touch-sensitive device and includes performing a plurality of scans of the touch-sensitive array during a time window, response data is captured from each of the plurality of scans. Distilling a value for each respective scan from the response data captured during the respective scan. Identifying a set of peaks from the distilled values, each peak having a plurality of characteristic values. The method further includes: (i) determining a metric for the peaks based on the plurality of characteristic values associated with each peak; (ii) determining whether the metric satisfies a criterion, and (iii) in response to determining that the metric satisfies the criterion, rejecting at least some of the response data captured during the time window as representing at least one false touch.
