The TOUCH and WIDTH parameters have a geometrical interpretation; imagine
looking through a window at someone gently holding a finger against the
glass. You will see two regions, one inner region consisting of the part
of the finger actually touching the glass, and one outer region formed by
the perimeter of the finger. The diameter of the inner region is the
ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR, the diameter of the outer region is
ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR. Now imagine the person pressing the finger harder
against the glass. The inner region will increase, and in general, the
ratio ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR / ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR, which is always smaller than
unity, is related to the contact pressure. For pressure-based devices,
the perimeter of the finger. The center of the touching region (a) is
ABS_MT_POSITION_X/Y and the center of the approaching finger (b) is
ABS_MT_TOOL_X/Y. The touch diameter is ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR and the finger
diameter is ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR. Now imagine the person pressing the finger
harder against the glass. The touch region will increase, and in general,
the ratio ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR / ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR, which is always smaller
than unity, is related to the contact pressure. For pressure-based devices,
ABS_MT_PRESSURE may be used to provide the pressure on the contact area
instead. Devices capable of contact hovering can use ABS_MT_DISTANCE to
indicate the distance between the contact and the surface.
In addition to the MAJOR parameters, the oval shape of the contact can be
described by adding the MINOR parameters, such that MAJOR and MINOR are the
major and minor axis of an ellipse. Finally, the orientation of the oval
shape can be describe with the ORIENTATION parameter.

Touch ellipsis are symmetrical by default. For devices capable of true 360
degree orientation, the reported orientation must exceed the range max to
indicate more than a quarter of a revolution. For an upside-down finger,
range max * 2 should be returned.
Orientation can be omitted if the touch area is circular, or if the

For win8 devices with both T and C coordinates, the position mapping is
ABS_MT_POSITION_X := T_X
ABS_MT_POSITION_Y := T_Y
ABS_MT_TOOL_X := C_X
ABS_MT_TOOL_X := C_Y
Unfortunately, there is not enough information to specify both the touching
ellipse and the tool ellipse, so one has to resort to approximations. One
simple scheme, which is compatible with earlier usage, is:
ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR := min(X, Y)
ABS_MT_TOUCH_MINOR := <not used>
ABS_MT_ORIENTATION := <not used>
ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR := min(X, Y) + distance(T, C)
ABS_MT_WIDTH_MINOR := min(X, Y)
Rationale: We have no information about the orientation of the touching
ellipse, so approximate it with an inscribed circle instead. The tool
ellipse should align with the the vector (T - C), so the diameter must
increase with distance(T, C). Finally, assume that the touch diameter is
equal to the tool thickness, and we arrive at the formulas above.
