20120270691 | MULTI-MODE ELECTRIC DRIVE HYBRID TRANSMISSION - A hybrid powertrain for a vehicle having a disconnect clutch located between an internal combustion engine, or other power source, and a hybrid transmission. When deactivated, the disconnect clutch decouples the engine from the hybrid transmission, which enables the hybrid transmission input shaft to rotate independently of the internal combustion engine. This enables enhanced electric drive performance for the hybrid transmission. The disconnect clutch provides for internal combustion engine starting, including internal combustion starting at high vehicle speeds. | 10-25-2012 |

20090284481 | Devices and Methods for a Backlight to Illuminate Both a Main Display and Morphable Keys or Indicators - Disclosed are devices and methods for a display of an electronic device, the display including a backlight and a conductive layer, wherein the backlight illuminates both a main display and morphable keys or indicators. The conductive layer includes two separate portions. One portion of the conductive layer is part of a main display. The second portion, the non-main display region of the conductive layer includes at least one shutter configured to allow light from the backlight to pass therethrough and configured to block light from the backlight from passing therethrough. Accordingly, the shutter in part forms a morphable or smart key, or indicator that is illuminated by the backlight that illuminates the main display. In this way, separate LEDs to illuminate a morphable or smart key or indicator are not utilized. | 11-19-2009 |

20090046089 | BURN-IN COMPENSATION FOR DISPLAY - In accordance with one embodiment, apparatus are provided, which include a burn-in compensation pixel generator and burn-in compensation circuitry. The burn-in compensation pixel generator is configured to generate burn-in compensation pixel data. The burn-in compensation circuitry is configured to provide, within break-from-standard-use periods of a device employing a display, the generated burn-in compensation pixel data instead of a select predetermined subset of default pixel data, for input to a display interface of the display. | 02-19-2009 |
20090079707 | INTEGRATED CAPACITIVE SENSING DEVICES AND METHODS - Disclosed are touch screen devices and methods of sensing an object near the surface of a touch screen device. A capacitive sensor is integrated into display electronics by flipping the traditional thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT) stack-up which has a bottom gate structure so that it is an inverted bottom gate structure. Accordingly, the gate structure is near the top of the display and the gate drive lines are re-used as excitation lines in addition to their function as display lines. The excitation lines therefore drive excitation to generate an induced electric field at the surface of the display device. Additionally, other lines are used as sensor lines so that sensor signals are input to the device controller to determine the position of an object at the surface of the display device. Accordingly, the excitation lines are scanned to detect the presence of a finger or other object. | 03-26-2009 |

20130278539 | Method and System for Performance Testing Touch-Sensitive Devices - A method and apparatus for testing a capacitive touch screen of a touch panel as commonly implemented on mobile and other electronic devices (or another touch-sensing device) are disclosed herein. In at least some embodiments, the method involves placing the touch screen in relation to a photoconductive panel (for example, a panel made from Cadmium Sulfide) so that the device and panel are adjacent to one another. Then, the panel is illuminated in a known manner, for example, by way of an image displayed on a display of the touch panel. Further, upon illumination of the panel, the panel conducts in a manner correlated to the illumination. Due to this conducting, capacitance change(s) occur that should actuate the touch screen in a corresponding manner. The capacitance change(s) detected at the touch screen can be compared with the known illumination pattern to determine whether the touch screen is operating properly. | 10-24-2013 |

20140192063 | CONTROLLING EMBEDDED IMAGE DATA IN A SMART DISPLAY - A method and apparatus for controlling embedded raw image data within a display having internal memory. The method includes sending a frame of code and a final compilation of raw image data to the internal memory of the display from a primary host processor prior to the primary host processor entering a sleep state. When the primary host processor has entered a sleep state, control of the raw image data is redirected to at least one secondary host processor. The secondary host processor reads the frame of code within the internal memory of the display and instructs the display to perform an image-related behavior output that may include updating the display itself based on the frame of code found in the internal memory of the display. | 07-10-2014 |
20140218873 | SYMMETRICAL FLAT PANEL DISPLAY - A display includes an encapsulation layer and a substrate. The substrate includes a chip on glass (COG) seat and a flexible printed circuit (FPC) connector seat. The COG seat and the FPC seats are positioned on different edges of the substrate. A cross-connection layer between the substrate layer and the encapsulation layer, the cross-connection layer including traces connected between the COG seat and the FPC seat. A device incorporating the display may take advantage of the symmetrical display to achieve new designs. | 08-07-2014 |
20140267316 | DISPLAY CO-PROCESSING - In embodiments of display co-processing, a computing device includes a display, a full-power processor, and a low-power processor that can alter visual content presented by the display without utilizing the full-power processor. The low-power processor can, responsive to a request from the full-power processor, generate additional display data to update display data stored in a frame-buffer of the display. The low-power processor can then transmit the additional display data to the frame-buffer effective to alter at least a portion of the visual content presented by the display. In some embodiments, the additional display data is transmitted via a protocol converter that forwards the display data to the display using a display-specific communication protocol. | 09-18-2014 |
