Patent ID: 10867149

Abstract:
Techniques for communicating particular information from a user, using a sensing device, to a touch device by way of a touch event is provided. Sensors that are operatively coupled to a sensing device sense an input from the user which conveys particular information. This input is then converted by the sensing device into another signal that is then transmitted from the sensing device to the touch device. When the user uses the sensing device to interact with the touch device, the interaction causes a touch event on the touch device. A touch event occurs when the sensors within the touch device receive a touch-signal from the sensing device. The touch-signal is based, at least in part, on detected biometric information of the user. The touch device then decodes the touch-signal to both (a) determine the location of the touch event on the touch device and (b) obtain the sensing device signal embedded in the touch signal to extract the particular information related to the user.
