Abstract:
Techniques enabling improved classification of objects against a touch sensitive surface of a touch sensitive device are presented. An object classification component can analyze touch screen data associated with a touch sensitive surface associated with a device and motion information relating to motion along at least one axis associated with the device. The object classification component can determine a contact classification for an object with respect to the touch sensitive surface, based on a result(s) of the analyzing, and in response to determining a contact state of the object with respect to the touch sensitive surface. An event determination component can control a function associated with the touch sensitive surface based on the contact classification for the object, the function comprising enabling or disabling a touch sensitive function of the touch sensitive surface of a display screen of the device or switching the display screen on or off.

Claim (Index 3):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein there is a set of contact classifications, comprising the contact classification, relating to the contact state of the object in relation to the touch sensitive surface, wherein the set of contact classifications comprise a no touch state, a head state, a finger state, a head-hovering state, and a finger-hovering state, wherein the no touch state indicates the object is not in contact with and is not hovering in proximity to the touch sensitive surface, the head state indicates that the object is a face, a head, or an ear of a user and is in contact with the touch sensitive surface, the finger state indicates that the object is a finger or a hand of the user and is in contact with the touch sensitive surface, the head-hovering state indicates that the object is the face, the head, or the ear of the user and is hovering over the touch sensitive surface in proximity to the touch sensitive surface and is not in contact with the touch sensitive surface, and the finger-hovering state indicates that the object is the finger or the hand of the user and is hovering over the touch sensitive surface in proximity to the touch sensitive surface and is not in contact with the touch sensitive surface.
