DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18151927 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a display device with a touch sensing unit that includes a display area, a transmitting portion, and a non-display area. The touch sensing unit has a transmissive area, dummies overlapping the transmitting portion, and a touch sensor area with first and second touch electrodes.

  • The display device includes a display unit with a display area, transmitting portion, and non-display area.
  • The touch sensing unit has a transmissive area, dummies, and a touch sensor area with first and second touch electrodes.
  • The dummies include a main dummy and at least one sub-dummy surrounding the main dummy.
  • The outermost sub-dummy has a first cut corresponding to a gap between adjacent first and second touch electrodes.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Touchscreen devices such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops.
  • Interactive displays for public information systems, kiosks, and digital signage.
  • Gaming consoles and virtual reality devices.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Provides accurate touch sensing by preventing interference from the transmitting portion.
  • Enhances the durability and reliability of the touch sensing unit.
  • Reduces manufacturing complexity and cost.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved touch sensitivity and accuracy.
  • Enhanced durability and reliability of the display device.
  • Simplified manufacturing process and reduced production costs.


Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is a display device including a display unit including a display area, a transmitting portion surrounded by the display area, and a non-display area surrounding the display area, and a touch sensing unit having a transmissive area, dummies overlapping the transmitting portion and surrounding the transmissive area, and a touch sensor area surrounding the dummies and including first touch electrodes, and second touch electrodes respectively between the first touch electrodes, connected in a first direction, and spaced apart in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the dummies include a main dummy surrounding the transmissive area, and at least one sub-dummy surrounding the main dummy, and wherein an outermost sub-dummy of the at least one sub-dummy that is at an outermost position of the dummies includes a first cut corresponding to a gap between adjacent first and second touch electrodes among the first and second touch electrodes.
