Patents by Inventor Andrey B. Batchvarov

Andrey B. Batchvarov has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9785281
    Abstract: Acoustic touch sensitive testing techniques are described. In one or more implementations, a touch-sensitive surface of a touch-sensitive device is tested by detecting contact made with the touch sensitive surface using an acoustic sensor and comparing data describing the contact that is received from the acoustic sensor with data describing the contact that is received from the touch-sensitive device.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9395845
    Abstract: Touchscreen testing techniques are described. In one or more implementations, a piece of conductor (e.g., metal) is positioned as proximal to a touchscreen device and the touchscreen device is tested by simulating a touch of a user. This technique may be utilized to perform a variety of different testing of a touchscreen device, such as to test latency and probabilistic latency. Additional techniques are also described including contact geometry testing techniques.

  • Patent number: 8914254
    Abstract: Panning latency measurement techniques are described. In one or more implementations, a test apparatus includes one or more motors configured to move one or more contacts at least proximal to one or more sensors of a device to be detectable as a movement. The test apparatus also includes one or more modules implemented at least partially in hardware to measure latency of the device to recognize the movement of the one or more contacts.
