More Information
Summary:A digitizer system includes a designated sensing area comprising a plurality of sensing lines for sensing an electromagnetic signal emitted by a stylus interacting with the digitizer system, circuitry for detecting output from the plurality of sensing lines and for determining an interacting position of the stylus in the designated sensing area based on the output detected and a peripheral area contiguous to the designated sensing area. The peripheral area includes a plurality of conductive elements for connecting the plurality of sensing lines to the circuitry and at least one auxiliary sensing line extending over the peripheral area in the vicinity of the plurality of conductive elements and connected to the circuitry. The at least one auxiliary sensing line is operable to sense the electromagnetic signal when it is emitted over the peripheral area and the circuitry is operable to detect output from the at least one auxiliary sensing line.
