STYLUS SPEED - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240281085 titled 'STYLUS SPEED
The patent application describes a device designed to work with a touch surface digitizer, utilizing a sensor to capture uplink signals emitted by an antenna grid in the digitizer, and a controller to interpret these signals to determine the speed of the device based on the sequence of signals received.
- Sensor captures uplink signals from a grid of antennas in a touch surface digitizer.
- Controller analyzes the sequence of signals received to determine the speed of the device.
- Speed is calculated based on the detected sequence of signals relative to a predetermined spatial pattern of signals emitted across the grid.
Potential Applications: - Touchscreen devices with enhanced speed detection capabilities. - Gaming controllers for precise speed control. - Automotive touchscreens for improved responsiveness.
Problems Solved: - Accurate speed detection in touch surface devices. - Enhanced user experience with responsive touch controls.
Benefits: - Improved performance in touch-enabled devices. - Enhanced user interaction with touchscreens. - Precise speed control for various applications.
Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Speed Detection Device for Touch Surface Digitizers" This technology can be utilized in smartphones, tablets, gaming consoles, automotive touchscreens, and other touch-enabled devices to provide accurate speed detection and enhance user experience.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the device differentiate between different speeds based on the sequence of uplink signals? 2. What are the potential limitations of this technology in terms of accuracy and reliability?
Original Abstract Submitted
a device for use with a touch surface digitizer, the device comprising: a sensor configured to receive uplink signals emitted by a grid of antennas in the digitizer, and a controller configured to detect the uplink signals via the sensor; wherein the controller is further configured to determine a speed of the device based on a detected sequence of the uplink signals as received at the sensor from one or more junctions of the antenna grid relative to a predetermined spatial pattern of the uplink signals as emitted across the grid.
