ABSTRACT
Accidental triggering of unwanted interaction when using a handheld touch screen device is a problem for many users. Accidental touches on capacitive touch screen based mobile telephones were analyzed in a user test. Patterns that are characteristic of unintentional touches were identified. Layout guidelines to reduce the amount of unintentional touches are presented. Additionally, filtering criteria is defined that rejected 79.6% of unintentional touches whilst rejecting only 0.8% of intentional touches.

TypeBoard: Identifying Unintentional Touch on Pressure-Sensitive Touchscreen Keyboards
UIST '21: The 34th Annual ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and TechnologyText input is essential in tablet computer interaction. However, tablet software keyboards face the problem of misrecognizing unintentional touch, which affects efficiency and usability [29, 49]. In this paper, we proposed TypeBoard, a pressure-...
The performance of touch screen soft buttons
CHI '09: Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsThe introduction of a new generation of attractive touch screen-based devices raises many basic usability questions whose answers may influence future design and market direction. With a set of current mobile devices, we conducted three experiments ...
Toward a Compact Device to Interact with a Capacitive Touch Screen
UIST '16 Adjunct: Adjunct Proceedings of the 29th Annual ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and TechnologyCapacitive touch screens are widely used in various products. Touch screens have an advantage that an input system and output system can be integrated into a single module. We consider this advantage could make it possible to realize a new universal ...
