DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING POSITION INPUT FUNCTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18653323 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING POSITION INPUT FUNCTION

The abstract describes a display device with pixel electrodes spaced apart from each other, touch electrodes forming capacitance with a finger for position input detection, a touch line between adjacent pixel electrodes connected to touch electrodes, and at least two source lines parallel to the touch line for transmitting image signals to the pixel electrodes.

  • Pixel electrodes are spaced apart and interact with touch electrodes for position input detection.
  • Touch electrodes form capacitance with a finger to detect the position of input.
  • A touch line is sandwiched between adjacent pixel electrodes and connected to touch electrodes.
  • Source lines, at least two, run parallel to the touch line to transmit image signals to the pixel electrodes.
  • Source lines are positioned such that each pixel electrode is sandwiched between the touch line and a source line.

Potential Applications: - Touchscreen displays - Interactive kiosks - Gaming devices - Automotive displays - Medical devices

Problems Solved: - Accurate position input detection - Improved user interface experience - Enhanced touch sensitivity

Original Abstract Submitted

A display device includes pixel electrodes that are spaced apart from each other, touch electrodes, each of which forms a capacitance with a finger, which is a position input body performing position input, to detect a position of input by the finger, which is the position input body, a touch line that is sandwiched between adjacent pixel electrodes and is connected to the touch electrodes, and at least two source lines that extend parallel to the touch line. The source lines transmit image signals to the pixel electrodes. The source lines are disposed such that one of the two pixel electrodes is sandwiched between the touch line and one of the two source lines and another one of the two pixel electrodes is sandwiched between another one of the two source lines and the touch line.
