Designing the interface for the touch screen is not an easy job. The number of movements that must be captured and responded by the screen sometimes made to work extra hard, even overwhelmed, so the screen becomes less sensitive and responsive to touch.
During this time, the touch technology only can adopt two touch commands simultaneously on one screen. Typically this is used for playing games. However, what if the sweep movements of our finger form a certain areas, whether the display can respond it?
In February, Apple Inc. registering a patent for the ‘multi touch’ screen technology with a special interface elements. For example, to open a site or a new window, users no longer need to click the browser engine. Simply by moving his fingers like making a rectangle, then the web page will be displayed.
Likewise, if the user wants to create a new file or folder and transferred them from phone to computer or vice versa. In short, this ‘multi touch’ technology tries to understand the movement and graphics to obey certain commands.
Although is not clear yet what OS that will adopt this ‘multi touch’ technology with this particular element, in the file patent filing, Apple is giving the examples of that multi touch performance to tablets, mobile phones, and computer touch screen.
