ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240220051 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE
The abstract describes an electronic device with a display layer and a sensor layer, where the sensor layer includes electrodes arranged in different directions and connected through trace lines and contacts.
- The electronic device includes a display layer with a display region and a peripheral region, along with a sensor layer on top.
- The sensor layer consists of first electrodes arranged in one direction, second electrodes arranged in another direction, and trace lines connecting them.
- The first electrodes and trace lines are connected through first contacts, while the second electrodes and trace lines are connected through second contacts.
- The first and second contacts overlap the display region, enhancing the functionality of the sensor layer.
Potential Applications: - Touchscreen devices - Interactive displays - Gesture recognition systems
Problems Solved: - Improved touch sensitivity - Enhanced user interaction - Precise input recognition
Benefits: - Higher accuracy in touch input - Increased responsiveness - Better user experience
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Touchscreen Technology for Enhanced User Interaction This technology can be utilized in smartphones, tablets, interactive kiosks, and other touch-enabled devices, improving user experience and attracting more customers in the competitive tech market.
