DISPLAY MODULE HAVING INCREASED TRANSMITTANCE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE DISPLAY MODULE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18524326 titled 'DISPLAY MODULE HAVING INCREASED TRANSMITTANCE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE DISPLAY MODULE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a display module with a sensor that overlaps different areas of the display panel. The sensor includes first and second electrodes with mesh structures that overlap specific sensing areas on the panel.

  • The display module includes a display panel with distinct areas and a sensor with transmissive, first sensing, and second sensing areas.
  • The sensor has first and second electrodes with mesh structures that overlap the sensing areas on the display panel.

Potential Applications

The technology could be used in touchscreens, interactive displays, and gesture recognition systems.

Problems Solved

The sensor design allows for precise and accurate touch or gesture detection on specific areas of the display panel.

Benefits

Improved accuracy and sensitivity in touch and gesture recognition, leading to enhanced user experience and interaction with the display module.

Potential Commercial Applications

The technology could be applied in smartphones, tablets, interactive kiosks, and other electronic devices with touch-sensitive displays.

Possible Prior Art

Prior touch sensor technologies may have used different electrode structures or arrangements for touch detection on display panels.

Unanswered Questions

How does the mesh structure of the electrodes affect the sensitivity of the sensor?

The abstract does not provide details on how the mesh structure enhances the sensor's performance in detecting touch or gestures.

Are there any limitations to the overlapping sensing areas of the sensor?

It is unclear from the abstract if there are any drawbacks or constraints to having overlapping sensing areas on the display panel.


Original Abstract Submitted

A display module includes: a display panel having a first area, a second area, and a third area; and a sensor disposed on the display panel, wherein the sensor has a transmissive area, a first sensing area, and a second sensing area, wherein the transmissive area overlaps the first area, wherein the first sensing area overlaps the second area, and the second sensing area overlaps the third area, wherein the sensor includes a plurality of first electrodes and a plurality of second electrodes, and each of the plurality of first electrodes and the plurality of second electrodes has a mesh structure, and wherein the mesh structure includes a first mesh structure and a second mesh structure, wherein the first mesh structure overlaps the first sensing area, wherein the second mesh structure overlaps the second sensing area. The first mesh structure and the second mesh structure are different from each other.
