  • Publication number: 20240192806
    Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided herein for determining the handedness of input provided by a user via a touch interface. For instance, for each touch-based input detected, a score indicating a probability whether the touch-based input was inputted by a particular hand of the user is generated. A classification for the touch-based input is then generated based on a drift diffusion model-based technique in which inter-dependencies between a series of touch-based input are approximated. The determined classifications are used to determine the handedness of the user.

  • Patent number: 11989369
    Abstract: Examples are disclosed that relate to improving speed and accuracy of touch input classification. In one example, a touch detection device includes an array of antennas configured to measure touch input and output a touch matrix of pixels having touch values corresponding to the touch input measured at each antenna of the array of antennas. The touch detection device further includes a neural network having an input layer including a plurality of nodes. Each node is configured to receive a touch value corresponding to a different pixel of the touch matrix. The neural network is configured to output classified touch data corresponding to the measured touch input based at least on the touch matrix.

  • Patent number: 11537239
    Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided herein for determining the handedness of input provided by a user via a touch interface. For instance, for each touch-based input detected, a score indicating a probability whether the touch-based input was inputted by a particular hand of the user is generated. A classification for the touch-based input is then generated based on a drift diffusion model-based technique in which inter-dependencies between a series of touch-based input are approximated. The determined classifications are aggregated and compared to threshold(s) to determine the handedness of the user. For example, if the aggregated classifications meet a first threshold, then a determination is made that touch-based input provided by a user was inputted by the user's left hand. If the aggregated classifications meet a second threshold, then a determination is made that touch-based input provided by the user was inputted by the user's right hand.
