Abstract:
1. A method of controlling a touch input of a terminal, the method comprising: sensing a touch input through a touch panel for sensing a user touch and an Electro Magnetic Resonance (EMR) panel for sensing a pen touch input; determining, when the touch input is sensed, a touch position; determining, when the touch input is sensed, whether the touch input is a pen touch input; setting a partial area of a touch panel comprising the determined touch position as an effective touch area of the touch panel; setting the effective touch area of the touch panel and processing, when the user touch input is sensed, the touch input sensed in the effective touch area as an effective touch input; and ignoring a touch input in an area not the effective touch area, wherein the touch position is determined when the touch input is a pen touch sensed through the EMR panel, and wherein the setting of the partial area of the touch panel comprising the determined pen touch position as the effective touch area of the touch panel comprises setting an area within a predetermined radial distance from the pen touch position as an exclusive touch effective area in which a pen touch input is processed as an effective touch input only within the predetermined radial distance.
