What Is Considered Good Touch Performance?
Overview
Good touch performance refers to reliable, continuous, and accurate touch detection across the entire active area of a DISPLAX touch sensor, under normal user interaction conditions.
The guidelines below describe how to verify whether a touch sensor is correctly tuned and performing as expected.
1. Single-Finger Continuous Drag
-
Drag one finger across the screen
-
Finger should be held approximately 90° relative to the display
-
Apply minimal finger pressure
-
Touch detection must remain continuous and uninterrupted
Test across:
-
Center of the sensor
-
All borders and edges
2. Multi-Finger Drag Test
-
Repeat the drag test using two or more fingers
-
Touch detection must remain active for all fingers
-
No touch dropouts should occur during movement
3. Full-Hand Interaction Test
-
Use one hand with four fingers touching
Drag across the entire active area:
-
Left hand: left → right
-
Right hand: right → left
-
Touch detection must remain stable from one side to the other, without interruptions
Important Notes on Screen Size
📄 Exact finger distance recommendations are defined in the technical specifications provided with each DISPLAX touch sensor.
Summary
A touch sensor is considered well-tuned when it provides:
-
Continuous drag without loss
-
Reliable multi-touch detection
-
Stable performance across center and edges
-
Correct behavior with minimal pressure
If these conditions are not met, further adjustment of Gain, Threshold, Shield, or Calibration may be required. For further assistance, contact support@displax.com
