20110193791 | CAPACITIVE TOUCH SENSITIVE OVERLAY INCLUDING TOUCH SENSOR AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING SAME - A touch-sensitive overlay includes a substrate, and a capacitive touch sensor arrangement comprising a first touch sensor and a second touch sensor disposed on the substrate in a region and arranged and constructed such that a coordinate of the touch is determined based on a relation of signals from at least the first and the second touch sensors, wherein the first touch sensor is electrically isolated from the second touch sensor. | 08-11-2011 |
20120075201 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND TOUCH-SENSITIVE INPUT DEVICE - A touch-sensitive input device includes a cover, a set of first conductors disposed between the cover and a substrate, the first conductors including at least two fingers connected at an end of the fingers, dummy conductors disposed between the first conductors and between the fingers of the first conductors, and a second set of conductors disposed on an opposite side of the substrate. | 03-29-2012 |
20120075232 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND TOUCH-SENSITIVE INPUT DEVICE - A touch-sensitive input device includes a first set of conductors and a second set of conductors. The first set of conductors include a first conductor including a plurality of first fingers extending from a first spine, and a second conductor including a plurality of second fingers extending from a second spine, wherein the first fingers are interleaved with the second fingers. The second set of conductors are separated from the first set of conductors by a dielectric material and include a third conductor including a plurality of third fingers extending from a third spine, and a fourth conductor including a plurality of fourth fingers extending from a fourth spine, wherein the third fingers are interleaved with the fourth fingers. | 03-29-2012 |
20120169619 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING SAME - A method includes detecting a touch on a touch-sensitive display of an electronic device, determining a distance between a first filtered touch location established based on a first detected touch location at a first time, and a second detected touch location at a second time, filtering noise from the second detected touch location to determine a second filtered touch location, wherein the filtering is based on the distance. | 07-05-2012 |
20120206381 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING SAME - A method includes displaying information in a display area of a touch-sensitive display, receiving touch data from the display area and touch data from a non-display area where information is not displayed, and determining a touch location in the display area based on the touch data from the display area and the touch data from the non-display area. | 08-16-2012 |
20120293336 | APPARATUS, AND ASSOCIATED METHOD, FOR TESTING A TOUCH SENSING DEVICE - An apparatus, and an associated method, tests for an anomaly, such as an open circuit or a short circuit, at a touch sensing device. An electrical characteristic sensor senses an electrical characteristic at an electrode of the touch sensing device. Responsive to the sensed electrical characteristic, a determination is made by a determiner as to whether a short or open circuit or other anomaly exists at the touch sensing device. | 11-22-2012 |
20130016059 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING A TOUCH-SENSITIVE DISPLAYAANM LOWLES; Robert JamesAACI WaterlooAACO CAAAGP LOWLES; Robert James Waterloo CAAANM GOLOVCHENKO; MykolaAACI SunnyvaleAAST CAAACO USAAGP GOLOVCHENKO; Mykola Sunnyvale CA USAANM STACY; William TurlayAACI San JoseAAST CAAACO USAAGP STACY; William Turlay San Jose CA US - A device includes a substrate having a first side and second side, a first set of touch-sensing electrodes disposed on the first side of the substrate, a force-sensing electrode disposed on the second side of the substrate, and a display including a ground shield. A change in capacitance between the force sensing electrode and the ground shield is utilized to determine a value related to a force imparted on the device. | 01-17-2013 |
