Abstract

An optical touch detection system including at least two stereo pairs of optical sensors, which are each used to identify a set of potential points, and methods for determining which of the potential points are true touch points. The first pair of optical sensors is used to identify a first set of potential points and the second set of optical sensors is used to identify a second set of potential points. Potential point pairs are then compared as between the first and second sets of potential points, i.e., each potential point pair includes a potential point from the first set and a potential point from the second set. Each potential point pair is evaluated to determine the distance between its constituent potential points. The true touch points are identified by selecting the potential point pairs having the shortest distances between their constituent potential points. Using at least two pairs of optical sensors reduces the total number of potential point pairs that must be evaluated to determine the true touch points, thus reducing necessary computational analysis.
