US Patent 9703473 Predicting touch input

Particular embodiments receive a plurality of touch events detected by a touchscreen. The display refresh rate may not be synchronized with a touch response rate of the touchscreen. Each touch event may be associated with at least one position on the touchscreen. A correlation between the touch events and a display refresh rate of the touchscreen may be determined. At least one position for display output may be extrapolated based on the touch events for the purpose of smoothing the display output. Additional positions for display output may be extrapolated based on the touch events for the purpose of predicting display output. Display information may be provided based on the touch events and the extrapolated positions.
