The capacitance values of the induction capacitors of at least four nodes are selected for calculation, and the azimuth angle of the touch input device is obtained by using a calculation mode of two difference values.
The touch screen is provided with a rectangular coordinate system to realize two-dimensional coordinate calculation, an axis parallel to row electrodes of the touch screen is selected as an X axis, and an axis parallel to column electrodes of the touch screen is selected as a Y axis. The more nodes are selected, the more data quantity is obtained, the higher the azimuth angle precision is finally obtained, but the more complex the algorithm is.

the sensing module is used for detecting the position of an input capacitor formed by an induction electrode on the touch input device and the touch screen, and the touch input device is used for inputting information on the touch screen;
the calculation module is used for obtaining the capacitance value of the induction capacitor formed around the input capacitor according to the position of the input capacitor;
establishing a rectangular coordinate system according to row electrodes and column electrodes of the touch screen, and taking the difference value between the capacitance values of the inductive capacitors of at least two nodes on the X-axis positive half shaft of the rectangular coordinate system and the capacitance values of the inductive capacitors of at least two nodes on the X-axis negative half shaft of the rectangular coordinate system as a first difference value; taking the difference value between the capacitance values of the inductive capacitors of the at least two nodes on the positive half shaft of the Y axis of the rectangular coordinate system and the capacitance values of the inductive capacitors of the at least two nodes on the negative half shaft of the Y axis of the rectangular coordinate system as a second difference value; and calculating an arc tangent function of the ratio of the second difference value to the first difference value to obtain the azimuth angle of the touch input device.
11. A touch input system comprising the touch input device of claim 9 and a corresponding touch screen, the touch screen determining the attitude of the touch input device from the azimuth and tilt data sent by the touch input device; alternatively, the system includes the touch screen of claim 10 and a corresponding touch input device, and the touch screen receives the tilt data sent by the touch input device and calculates the azimuth angle of the touch input device according to the capacitance value of the sensing capacitor, so as to determine the posture of the touch input device according to the azimuth angle and the tilt data of the touch input device.
