ABSTRACT:
A digitizer tablet providing hysteresis compensation in which the X and Y coordinates of a pointing device are measured at different times. In order to enable the tablet to report X and Y coordinates that when displayed will more accurately reflect the pointing device movements, a correction algorithm, built, for example, into the controlling software, estimates and reports what the first measured coordinate would have been, measured when the second coordinate is measured, based upon the calculated velocity and acceleration of the pointing device. A similar technique can be used to correct the reported value of the second coordinate. In a preferred embodiment, constant coefficients of a linear equation having as variables three consecutive coordinate values or three consecutive preprocessed coordinate values are predetermined and used in the correction algorithm. The preferred embodiment integrates the velocity and acceleration hysteresis compensation into a three point recursive noise filter.
