TOUCH SENSOR PANEL WITH STAGGERED TOUCH ELECTRODES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18180773 Titled 'TOUCH SENSOR PANEL WITH STAGGERED TOUCH ELECTRODES'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a touch sensor panel that consists of multiple touch electrodes arranged in a two-dimensional grid. These touch electrodes have first and second protrusions on opposite sides, with the first protrusions being offset from the second protrusions along a different axis. The touch electrodes are designed to fit together like puzzle pieces, with the first protrusions of one electrode interlocking with the second protrusions of another electrode.
Original Abstract Submitted
A touch sensor panel comprises a plurality of touch electrodes in a two-dimensional array, the plurality of touch electrodes including first and second touch electrodes disposed along a first axis. The first and second touch electrodes can each include one or more first protrusions along a first side and one or more second protrusions along a second side, opposite the first side. The one or more first protrusions along the first side can be offset along a second axis, orthogonal to the first axis, from the one or more second protrusions along the second side. The first and second touch electrodes can tessellate such that the one or more first protrusions along the first side of the first touch electrode interlock with the one or more second protrusions along the second side of the second touch electrode.
