Abstract
A method includes obtaining sensor coordinates and pressure values corresponding to the sensor coordinates; mapping, using a first mapping method, a first set of the sensor coordinates to first display screen coordinates; determining that a first one of the pressure values is greater than or equal to a threshold pressure value; determining that a second one of the pressure values is less than the threshold pressure value, after determining that the first one of the pressure values is greater than or equal to the threshold pressure value; in response to the determining that the second one of the pressure values is less than the threshold pressure value, mapping, using a second mapping method, a second set of the sensor coordinates to second display screen coordinates; and outputting the first display screen coordinates and the second display screen coordinates. Accordingly, an operator can easily switch the mapping to the second method.
