Methods, system, and apparatus for touchless terminal interface interaction

A touch field is created around a touchscreen display, the field is in front of a touch surface of the display and the field maps to locations on the display. An operator of a terminal during a transaction is presented with transaction interface screens that are visually rendered on the display. The operator makes interface options selections, performs screen navigation, and provides date entry field inputs by placing the operator's hand within the field without touching the touch surface of the display and making hand poses, hand movements, and/or hand gestures. The poses, movements, and/or gestures are translated into touch actions and touch inputs recognized by the transaction interface and processed as operator-provided input during the transaction.

WORKING RANGE AND LIFT DETECTION IN AN INPUT DEVICE

A method of operating an input device can include generating a light beam by a light source module, steering the light beam towards a target location on an underlying surface, steering a reflected light beam towards an image sensor of the input device, receiving the reflected light beam by the image sensor, and generating tracking data by the image sensor that corresponds to a two-dimensional (2D) movement of the input device on the underlying surface.

Methods and apparatus for finger detection and separation on a touch sensor panel using machine learning models

Finger detection and separation techniques on a multi-touch touch sensor panel can be improved using machine learning models (particularly for touch sensor panels with relatively low signal-to-noise ratio). In some examples, a machine learning model can be used to process an input patch to disambiguate whether the input patch corresponds to one contact or two contacts. In some examples, the machine learning model can be implemented using a neural network. The neural network can receive a sub-image including an input patch as an input, and can output a number of contacts. In some examples, the neural network can output one or more sub-image masks representing the one or more contacts.
