Method for force sensing, electronic module capable of facilitating force sensing, and computing apparatus
A method for force sensing using information from a display panel with a touch sensor and a fingerprint sensor is introduced. The method includes: obtaining, based on touch sensing data from a touch sensing circuit coupled to the touch sensor, first sensing information indicating capacitance value distribution over a touch sensing area due to pressing of an object on the display panel; obtaining, based on fingerprint sensing data from a fingerprint sensing circuit coupled to the fingerprint sensor, second sensing information indicating an effective pressing area due to the pressing of the object; and generating third sensing information indicating a force corresponding to the pressing of the object, based on the first sensing information and the second sensing information. An electronic module capable of facilitating force sensing and computing apparatus capable of force sensing are also provided.
