Abstract: Touch events are detected on a touch sensing surface coupled to a capacitive sense array and one or more force electrodes. During a plurality of scan cycles, a plurality of capacitive sense signals and one or more force signals are obtained from capacitive sense electrodes of the capacitive sense array and the one or more force electrodes, respectively, and applied to determine a temporal sequence of touches on the touch sensing surface. For each touch of the temporal sequence of touches, a touch location on the touch sensing surface is identified based on the capacitive sense signals, and a force value associated with force applied at the touch location is determined based on the force signals. A gesture associated with the temporal sequence of touches is thereby identified based on the touch locations and the force values of the temporal sequence of touches.
