Supplies. In order to attract the attention of consumers, the manufacturers of the various factories have a place in the market for the products they produce, and they have developed new portable devices with special functions and convenient operation. Today, high-performance mobile phones, personal digital assistants or smart phones have many touch keyboards. Different from the hardware keyboard, some touch control keyboards are used to execute the software mode, and a keyboard is displayed directly on the display module of the communication device, so that the user only needs to touch when typing or performing other function selection. You can select the touch point on the control keyboard. However, portable communication devices such as mobile phones, personal digital assistants, or smart phones] have a common-purpose (four)', that is, the size of the display panel of the display module is smaller when the function option is smaller. The shirt makes it impossible for the user to confirm whether the selected graphic is too small, and the option is often used. In addition, because of the function of the horse to confirm from the visual way which is the finger _ 5 201025084 points touched the display module.

In this example, the plural function option 123 is a touch keyboard. When the user wants to use the touch keyboard for typing or function selection, just touch the touch keyboard. As can be seen from Fig. 1, the keys of the touch keyboard are small and closely arranged, and the area of the user's fingers is relatively large. As far as the average user is concerned, whether the finger is used or the other finger is used for the touch operation, it is easy to cause a false touch. For example, in the first figure, when the user wants to select the letter "m" in the touch keyboard, since the area of the finger is much larger than the area of the letter "m", the touch is often pressed together. The other buttons around the letter "m" may be the letter "j", the letter "k" or the letter "η", resulting in a false touch. Therefore, a portable communication device can effectively determine the function options that the user really wants to touch when using a finger or other object to be tested to perform a touch of a small size option, and effectively reduce the false touch. Occurrence is one of the most important topics at present.
