INPUT DEVICE AND CONTROL SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18546851 titled 'INPUT DEVICE AND CONTROL SYSTEM
The abstract describes a patent application where the number of light sources emitting light based on identification information from an input device is reduced. The input device includes a first light source, a second light source, a first illumination part illuminated by the first light source to indicate identification information, two second illumination parts illuminated by the second light source to indicate identification information, and a light guide member that guides light from the second light source to the second illumination parts.
- Input device with reduced number of light sources emitting light based on identification information
- Includes first and second light sources, first illumination part, and two second illumination parts
- Light guide member directs light from second light source to second illumination parts
Potential Applications: - Security systems - Access control devices - Identification systems
Problems Solved: - Reducing complexity of input devices - Improving efficiency of light sources
Benefits: - Enhanced security - Simplified user experience - Energy efficiency
Commercial Applications: Title: "Efficient Identification Systems for Enhanced Security" This technology can be used in various commercial applications such as access control systems, biometric scanners, and smart locks. The market implications include improved security measures and streamlined identification processes.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this innovation improve the efficiency of light sources in identification systems? 2. What are the potential security benefits of using a reduced number of light sources in input devices?
Original Abstract Submitted
The number of light sources that emit light according to identification information regarding an input device is reduced. An input device () includes a first light source (S), a second light source (S), a first illumination part (E) that is illuminated by light from the first light source (S) in order to indicate identification information allocated to the input device, two second illumination parts (E) that are placed at positions different from a position of the first illumination part (E) and that are illuminated by light from the second light source in order to indicate the identification information, and a light guide member () that guides the light from the second light source (E) to the two second illumination parts (E).
