For my master’s thesis and for Tapspace project, I wanted to study algorithms needed in two dimensional touch manipulation. The problem was that most pinch-zoom, rotate, and similar two-finger gestures fail if a third finger comes into play and touches the screen. In the thesis a set of algorithms are created that gracefully deal with any number of fingers and in computationally fast manner.
