DISPLAY APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18092338 titled 'DISPLAY APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a display apparatus with an input sensor that has improved sensitivity in the peripheral area. The input sensor has a central area and a peripheral area, with center electrodes in the central area and peripheral electrodes in the peripheral area. Each center electrode has a sensing pattern and a floating pattern, while each peripheral electrode only has a sensing pattern.
- The display apparatus includes a display panel and an input sensor with electrodes.
- The input sensor has a central area and a peripheral area.
- Center electrodes are located in the central area and have a sensing pattern and a floating pattern.
- Peripheral electrodes are located in the peripheral area and only have a sensing pattern.
- This configuration improves sensitivity in the peripheral area of the input sensor.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Touchscreen displays
- Interactive whiteboards
- Gaming consoles
- Virtual reality devices
Problems solved by this technology:
- Improved sensitivity in the peripheral area of the input sensor
- More accurate and responsive touch input
- Enhanced user experience in interacting with the display
Benefits of this technology:
- Increased precision and accuracy in touch input
- Improved user experience and ease of use
- Enhanced functionality and versatility of display devices
Original Abstract Submitted
A display apparatus including a display panel, an input sensor having an active area having a plurality of electrodes disposed therein and at least a portion of which overlaps the display area, and a non-active area which overlaps the non-display area. The active area has a central area and a peripheral area disposed outward from the central area. The plurality of electrodes include center electrodes which are disposed in the central area and peripheral electrodes which are disposed in the peripheral area and have a surface area less than that of the center electrodes. Each of the center electrodes includes a sensing pattern and a floating pattern, and each of the peripheral electrodes includes substantially only the sensing pattern. Thus, an embodiment of the inventive concept may provide the display apparatus that includes an input sensor having improved sensitivity in a peripheral area.
