What is multitouch and calibration
If we say what a multi-touch in a tablet is in ordinary words, then this is its ability to recognize several touches at the same time. So, the first tablets were with resistive displays and could understand only one touch (+ there was an imitation of the second). True, this is also considered multi-touch. After the advent of capacitive models, the possibility of multi-touch appeared. At first, there was an understanding of only two touches, and now their number reaches 10.
Why do you need Multi-Touch?
- Device management
- Games and entertainment
- Special applications
In the system, multi-touch is used to control widgets and other system applications. Much more feature implemented in third party applications. For example, Google Maps perfectly demonstrates the possibilities of multitouch. With just two fingers, you can go anywhere on Earth.
Interesting technology implemented in Windows systems. You can program gestures for yourself. That is, to give each movement almost any function or option.
But in games, multi-touch reveals its full potential. They often use a joystick, on which you need to press several buttons at the same time. For example, let's take the game Mortal Combat, where you need to press various combinations of buttons to achieve certain strikes, their series and fatalities.
How to test Multi-Touch?
How to check multitouch on a tablet? Checking multitouch is easy. There is a primitive way. Right at the inspection site, start the camera and take a picture. Open it and, spreading-shifting two fingers on the display, see if the picture is increasing / decreasing.
To check for more than 2 touch points, download one of the special programs. For example, Multi-Touch Tester. It is small and immediately determines the number of possible touches. In addition, you can personally look at the result by touching the display again.
Tablet Display Calibration
Calibration is needed in order for your gadget to adequately respond to the touch of your fingers. An uncalibrated device behaves as follows. For example, you write SMS, press the letter "A", and the display shows the letter "K" or "E". Not very convenient, right?
Calibration in Windows
Since the tablets contain several Windows options, then there are several ways to calibrate the screen. Rather, there are several ways to get into special application for this. In defective Windows ( Windows type 8 CP) you need to open the general settings. Almost at the very bottom of the window there will be a treasured button. In full versions, the option is in screen personalization.
How to calibrate an Android tablet
IN Android devices(not all) the option is located in the "Display" section of the Gadget Options and is called "horizontal calibration". After opening the application, follow its instructions. More and more new devices no longer have this option, apparently focusing on iOS.
Calibration in iOS
As you understand, there is no such option in iOS, as the developers claim that there is simply no need for it. In fact, any device, no matter how it was calibrated at the factory, tends to get upset. Many factors influence this.

This can improve the readability of text on the screen, as well as give images and videos more natural colors.
Of course, professional digital photographers will want to use colorimeters for this. But if you do not have such a tool at your disposal, and you just want to make small adjustments, you can rely on your own eyes.
Before proceeding with the adjustment, make sure you are using the native resolution of your monitor.
If your monitor is equipped with adjustment buttons, you can use them. However, it is difficult to adjust the options without any guidance. Use test pages Lagom for LCD monitors (or similar tool) and get test images that you can refer to while calibrating multiple settings. Check out each page in turn. There you will find instructions explaining what you need to pay attention to when setting up various monitor options.
Suppose you are working on a laptop, and there are no such buttons on it. Then you have to turn to the tools built into Windows and Mac OS X.
Windows 10, 8.1, 8 and 7
Windows has a built-in screen calibration tool since Windows 7. To launch it, open the Control Panel. In Windows 10 or 8.1, this can be done by right-clicking on the Start icon and selecting Control Panel.
In the Control Panel window, click Hardware and Sound, then Display, and then click the Color Calibration link on the left side of the page.
Alternatively, you can open the Start menu, type "calibration" into the search bar, and click the "Calibrate Monitor Colors" shortcut to launch the calibration tool directly.
The Screen Color Calibration tool appears on the screen. It will help you change various options such as gamma, brightness, contrast and color balance, explaining what each setting means and how to adjust it. The Windows developers have done a good job, so just follow all the instructions on the screen.
Mac OS X has its own built-in screen calibration tool. To open it, click on the Apple menu at the top of the screen and select " System settings". Then, in the list that appears on the screen, click on the "Monitor" item.
In the window that opens, go to the "Color" tab and click on the "Calibrate" button.
An application called Monitor Calibrator Assistant will open. This utility guides you through the monitor calibration process, telling you everything you need to know and explaining how to properly set each option. Different options may be available for different monitors. The assistant will tell you what to look for while setting them up.
In the control panels of modern desktop environments linux desktop screen calibration tools may also be available. Of course, if you're using a Linux desktop computer, you can download the calibration guide web pages and do it manually using the buttons on the monitor itself.
Chromebooks and Chromeboxes do not have built-in screen calibration tools because they are simply not integrated into Chrome OS. However, if you are working with similar devices via an external monitor, you can use the above web pages and change the options manually using the buttons on the monitor.
