Enhancing touchscreen input via finger identification

Though there are various input ways of touch screen such as tap, double tap, gestures and multi-touch operations, input is still limited and inconvenient. In this paper, we present a method to enhance touchscreen-input modality using integrated finger identification system, through which each touch point will be given a new property or meaning by being assigned to a certain finger. It is a highly integrated method for existing display equipment with accuracy recognition performance. In addition, large programmable capacity for customization offers good interactive flexible experiences to users. Results from technical implementation show the accuracy and significantly interactive experiences of the new finger-identification platform.
