Abstract: Techniques for providing multi-user multi-touch projected capacitive touch sensors are disclosed herein. Some embodiments may include a method that includes receiving a first sense signal from a first sensing array, the first sensing array configured to provide the first sense signal indicating a first touch on a first touch surface of a touch substrate as well as receiving a second sense signal from a second sensing array, the second sensing array configured to provide the second sense signal indicating a second touch on a second touch surface of a second touch substrate occurring concurrently to the first touch. The method may further include determining whether the first touch and the second touch share at least one anti-ghost. The method may also include associating the first touch and the second touch with a common touch entity in response to determining that the first touch and the second touch share the at least one anti-ghost.

Abstract: A processor may identify that a new data entry is being generated. The processor may identify that the new data entry is associated with a replica data entry threshold. The replica data entry threshold may indicate a minimum amount of replica data entries to generate. The replica data entries may be substantially similar to the new data entry. The processor may generate an amount of replica data entries. The processor may store the new data entry and the amount of replica data entries in a repository.

The physical buttons may be configured to perform different actions based on an orientation of the handheld device. Dynamically mapping actions to physical buttons may be based on an orientation condition that measures any one of orientation state of the device, a current application state, a change in the orientation state, or current device status. The actions may be updated automatically based on the orientation condition.

Abstract: Systems and methods for diagnosing a user's vision condition by combining results of one or more vision tests taken by the user via a head-mounted vision device (HMVD) are provided. A user is provided with a first vision test and a second vision test via the HMVD and takes each test a predefined number of times and in a predefined order. Results are obtained from each test taken by the user, combined to obtain a combined test result for the user, and then used to diagnose the user's vision condition.
