DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240220040 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE
The patent application discusses a display device with light-emitting elements, touch-sensing electrodes, and touch-driving electrodes on an encapsulation unit covering the light-emitting elements.
- Light-emitting elements are placed in the display area of the substrate.
- Touch-sensing electrodes are on the encapsulation unit and extend in one direction.
- Touch-driving electrodes are on the encapsulation unit and extend in a different direction.
- Sub-touch-sensing electrodes are spaced apart, with one configured as a first variant electrode.
- The first variant electrode has a different shape from the remaining sub-touch-sensing electrodes.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in smartphones, tablets, and other electronic devices with touchscreens. - It can enhance user interaction by providing touch sensitivity along with display capabilities.
Problems Solved: - The technology solves the problem of integrating touch-sensing capabilities into display devices seamlessly. - It addresses the challenge of optimizing touch sensitivity and display quality in a compact device.
Benefits: - Improved user experience with responsive touch controls. - Enhanced functionality of display devices with integrated touch capabilities.
Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Touch-Sensitive Display Technology for Enhanced User Interaction This technology can be applied in the consumer electronics industry for the development of advanced touch-sensitive displays in smartphones, tablets, and other devices. It can cater to the growing demand for interactive and user-friendly interfaces in modern gadgets, potentially increasing market competitiveness and consumer appeal.
Questions about Touch-Sensitive Display Technology: 1. How does the integration of touch-sensing electrodes enhance the functionality of display devices? - The touch-sensing electrodes enable users to interact with the display through touch gestures, providing a more intuitive and engaging user experience.
2. What are the advantages of having touch-driving electrodes extending in a different direction from touch-sensing electrodes? - The touch-driving electrodes allow for precise control of touch sensitivity and responsiveness in different areas of the display, enhancing overall performance and user satisfaction.
Original Abstract Submitted
discussed is a display device including a substrate having a display area and a non-display area in the display area, light-emitting elements disposed in the display area, an encapsulation unit covering the light-emitting elements, a plurality of touch-sensing electrodes on the encapsulation unit in the display area and extending in a first direction, and a plurality of touch-driving electrodes on the encapsulation unit in the display area and extending in a second direction different from the first direction, in which the plurality of touch-sensing electrodes include a plurality of sub-touch-sensing electrodes spaced apart from each other, and in which at least one sub-touch-sensing electrode, which is adjacent to the non-display area among the plurality of sub-touch-sensing electrodes, is configured as a first variant electrode having a shape different from a shape of a remaining sub-touch-sensing electrode except for the at least one sub-touch-sensing electrode among the plurality of sub-touch-sensing electrodes.
