    Abstract: A touch sensing system includes one or more touch sensors, a temperature sensor, an output driver and a controller configured to set the output driver to a first state when the controller deems the sensor(s) to be in a touched state and to set the output driver to a second state when the controller deems the sensor(s) to be in a untouched state. The controller sets a touch sensitivity threshold for the sensors as a function of temperature data the controller receives from the temperature sensor.
