Abstract

The present invention discloses a multi-touch controlled apparatus and the method thereof. The method of multi-touch control includes the steps of: touching a resistive touch display interface to generate a first position signal and a pressure signal; determining whether or not the pressure signal is greater than a predetermined pressure threshold; recording a first position signal and a second position signal if the pressure signal is greater than the predetermined pressure threshold; determining whether or not a moving direction from the first position signal towards the second position signal is the predetermined moving direction; and issuing an instruction to execute a predetermined action, if the moving direction from the first position signal towards the second position signal is the predetermined moving direction.
