Abstract

Systems and methods provide for simulating an effective human touch on a touch screen sensor of a touch screen system. Touch simulation involves interaction with, or cooperation between, a subject touch screen system and a remote system via a communication or network link. Remote touch simulation typically involves establishing a communication link between the touch screen system and a remote location, simulating a touch to the touch screen sensor, and communicating data associated with simulating the touch between the touch screen system and the remote location via the communication link. Remote touch simulation can be employed to perform various types of diagnostics, calibration, and repair procedures.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to touch screen systems, and more particularly to systems and methods for enabling remote simulation of effective human touches on touch screen sensors. Background technique [0002] A typical touch screen uses a glass sheet with a conductive coating such as indium tin oxide and has four corner terminal contacts. The touch screen may constitute a capacitive or resistive touch screen, which has an electrode pattern made of conductive material. A finger, stylus, or conductive patch can cause or inject current at the point of contact. Current can then be distributed to the touchpad terminals in a manner proportional to the position of the contact point. [0003] The touch detection accuracy of a touchscreen can change over time due to a variety of system and environmental factors, such as wear and tear during extended use. Conventionally, monitoring, testing, and repair of touchscreen systems have included manual...
