20100123685 | TACTILE PRESENTATION TOUCH SCREEN AND DISPLAY DEVICE HAVING THE SAME - A tactile presentation touch screen and a display device having the same is disclosed. The tactile presentation touch screen in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention includes a transparent piezoelectric body, a plurality of transparent electrodes, which are coupled to the transparent piezoelectric body such that the transparent piezoelectric body is divided into grids, and a touch screen unit, which is coupled to one surface of the transparent piezoelectric body. Thus, the tactility of the touch screen can be improved by deforming the transparent piezoelectric body corresponding to an area pressed by the user. | 05-20-2010 |
20100156822 | TOUCH-SENSITIVE INTERFACE DEVICE - A touch-sensitive interface device is disclosed. The touch-sensitive interface device according to an embodiment of the invention can include a touchscreen, an image display panel coupled to one face of the touchscreen, a driving unit that vibrates the touchscreen in a direction parallel to the face of the touchscreen such that the tactile feel at the surface of the touchscreen is changed, and a control unit that controls the operating frequency of the driving unit. The touch-sensitive interface device can vibrate the touchscreen in a direction parallel to a face of the touchscreen, providing the user with a sensation that the tactile feel changes at the portion that the user touches. | 06-24-2010 |
20100207895 | TACTILE INTERFACE DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME - A tactile interface device and a method of controlling the same are disclosed. The tactile interface device can include a touchscreen, which has a slope formed in one surface, a driver, which vibrates the touchscreen in a horizontal direction such that the tactile feel at the surface of the touchscreen is changed, and a controller, which controls the operating frequency of the driver. The tactile interface device in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention can vibrate the touchscreen in a direction parallel to a surface of the touchscreen, providing the user with a sensation that the tactile feel changes at the portion that the user touches. | 08-19-2010 |
20100214221 | MOUSE - A mouse is disclosed. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, the mouse for inputting information to a computer including a monitor can include a touch detector coupled to one surface of a case, a driver, which vibrates the touch detector in a direction parallel to one surface of the touch detector such that a tactile feel of a surface of the touch detector is changed, and a controller, which controls an operating frequency of the driver. Thus, the mouse can provide the user with a better sensation that the tactile feel changes at the portion that the user touches. | 08-26-2010 |
20110063430 | BIOMETRIC AUTHENTICATION DEVICE - Disclosed herein is a biometric authentication device. The biometric authentication device according to the present invention is configured such that it blocks visible light using an authentication button, the inside of which is opened or closed by a finger so as to realize the small size and slim shape of a biometric authentication device, and blocks infrared light or allows infrared light to pass while a driving unit moves vertically or horizontally by the operation of the authentication button. Accordingly, in the biometric authentication device, a camera module captures a normal image in normal mode, and captures an infrared pattern reflected from a finger in a vein authentication mode to perform biometric authentication. | 03-17-2011 |
20110187658 | TOUCH SCREEN DEVICE - Disclosed herein is a touch screen device | 08-04-2011 |
20110313611 | Tire autolocation system and method using an angular velocity - Disclosed herein are a tire autolocation system and method using an angular sensor. | 12-22-2011 |
20120169142 | TPMS TRANSMISSION MODULE HAVING POWER SAVING FUNCTION - Disclosed herein is a TPMS transmission module having a power saving function, the TPMS transmission module including: a micom outputting a switch turn-off control signal when a vehicle having the TPMS transmission module mounted therein is stopped; a switch supplying a power when the switch is turned on and blocking the supply of the power when it is turned off; an energy generator generating and outputting an electric power when a tire rotates; and a switch controller turning on the switch when the electric power of a predetermined voltage or more is generated in the energy generator and turning off the switch when a switch turn off control signal is output from the micom. | 07-05-2012 |
20120173192 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY RECOGNIZING POSITION OF WHEEL OF VEHICLE - Disclosed herein are an apparatus and a method for automatically recognizing a position of a wheel of a vehicle. The apparatus includes a rotation sensor unit sensing a variation in rotation of the wheel of the vehicle; a pressure sensor unit sensing a rate of variation in pressure of the wheel of the vehicle; and a sensor control unit judging the position of the wheel of the vehicle by the variation in rotation and the rate of variation in pressure obtained from the rotation sensor unit and the pressure sensor unit. The sensor control unit judges the position of the wheel of the vehicle by dw/dt×dp/dt, in which dw/dt is the variation in rotation and dp/dt is the rate of variation in pressure. The wheel is judged as a front wheel when a value of dw/dt×dp/dt has a negative (−) sign and the wheel is judged as a rear wheel when the value of dw/dt×dp/dt has a positive (+) sign. | 07-05-2012 |
