Abstract: A multi touch sensing module comprising a plurality of electrically conductive touch surfaces, each connected to at least one trace, wherein the touch surfaces are arranged in more than two columns, each including more than two touch surfaces, wherein touch surfaces in corresponding positions in said columns form staggered rows, and all touch surfaces reside in a single layer of electrically conductive material.

Abstract: Capacitive detection systems, modules, and methods. In one embodiment, a power saving mode is implemented when deemed appropriate, based on an analysis of previous detection or non-detection of the presence and/or position of an object near a capacitive sensing area.

Abstract: An input device includes a touch sensor and a processing unit. The touch sensor has a surface and is configured to sense an imprint of a finger that touches the surface. The processing unit is configured to calculate a tilt of the finger relative to the surface by measuring a shift of the imprint sensed by the touch surface, and to produce an output based on the tilt.

Abstract: Capacitive detection systems, modules, and methods. In one embodiment, time interval measurement(s) are generated that are monotonic functions of the capacitance(s) of capacitive sensor(s) in a capacitive sensing area. In one embodiment, the generated time interval measurement(s), or any other monotonic function(s) of capacitance(s) of capacitive sensor(s) in a capacitive sensing area, may be analyzed to detect the presence of an object near the capacitive sensing area and/or to detect the position of an object near the capacitive sensing area.
