SENSING PANEL AND DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING SENSING PANEL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18103591 titled 'SENSING PANEL AND DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING SENSING PANEL

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a sensing panel that includes a touch sensor and a biometric sensor.

  • The touch sensor collects information about touch inputs in a specific area.
  • The touch sensor has sensing pattern layers, which consist of cell electrodes and bridge electrodes that connect them.
  • The biometric sensor collects biometric information in a separate area.
  • The biometric sensor has biometric sensing pattern layers and trace lines that connect to them.
  • The trace lines and some of the bridge electrodes are located on the same layer.
  • In a plan view, the trace lines bypass the bridge electrodes.


Original Abstract Submitted

A sensing panel includes a touch sensor that obtains information of a touch input in a sensing area, and a biometric sensor that obtains biometric information in a biometric sensing area. The touch sensor includes sensing pattern layers in the sensing area. The sensing pattern layers include cell electrodes and bridge electrodes electrically connecting the cell electrodes. The biometric sensor includes biometric sensing pattern layers in the biometric sensing area and trace lines electrically connected to the biometric sensing pattern layers. The trace lines and at least a portion of the bridge electrodes are disposed on a same layer. The trace lines bypass the bridge electrodes in a plan view.
