Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A value of a finger degree variable representing a degree of likelihood of a finger is updated at all times in accordance with whether the shape of an input trajectory represented by input coordinate data is a predetermined shape, whether a continuous contact time indicated by input coordinate data is less than a predetermined time, or whether or not a continuous non-contact time indicated by input coordinate data is less than a predetermined time. A degree of smoothening the shape of the input trajectory is changed in response to the value of the finger degree variable.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored therein a coordinate processing program for use with a computer of an information processing device, the coordinate processing program comprising instructions configured to cause a computer to: accept input coordinate data which is outputted from a coordinate input device, the input coordinate data indicating a contact position with respect to an operation surface of the coordinate input device;…
