Abstract: A touch sensing device and 2D sensing information update method used therein is disclosed. Before updating the 2D sensing information for use as a reference 2D sensing information, the processor determines the touch sensing panel is under an abnormal condition if any flatness index is smaller than a predetermined flatness index negative reference value or larger than a predetermined flatness index positive reference value, and will then keep measuring the capacitive coupling amount at each sensing point and getting respective flatness indexes, and will then update the 2D sensing information for use as a reference 2D sensing information when all the flatness indexes are in the range between the predetermined flatness index negative reference value and the predetermined flatness index positive reference value.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a touch control device and touch determination method thereof. When a processor determines a capacitive coupling variation of a sensing point at a sensing panel of the touch sensitive device is smaller than a predetermined negative threshold or larger than a predetermined positive threshold, the processor then computes from local 2D sensing information of second 2D sensing information measured at the sensing point, to obtain a flatness index, The processor determine that the sensing point is not touched by any external object if the flatness index is between a predetermined flatness index negative reference value and a predetermined flatness index positive reference value that indicates the capacitive coupling amount at the sensing point is changed by the sensing point is not touched by any external object, whereby a false touch control determination due to removing water drop on the touch sensing panel can be prevented.

Abstract: Virtual entities are displayed alongside real world entities in a wearable reality overlay device worn by the user. Information related to an environment proximate to the wearable device is determined. For example, a position of the wearable device may be determined, a camera may capture an image of the environment, etc. Virtual entity image information representative of an entity desired to be virtually displayed is processed based on the determined information. An image of the entity is generated based on the processed image information as a non-transparent region of a lens of the wearable device, enabling the entity to appear to be present in the environment to the user. The image of the entity may conceal a real world entity that would otherwise be visible to the user through the wearable device. Other real world entities may be visible to the user through the wearable device.
