Patent number: 10877559Abstract: This disclosure is directed to a system to provide tactile feedback during non-contact interaction. A system may comprise at least display circuitry, sensing circuitry, tactile feedback circuitry and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry may cause the display circuitry to present a user interface. The sensing circuitry may sense when a body part of a user (e.g., a hand, a finger, etc.) is proximate to the user interface and may generate position data based on a sensed position of the body part. The processing circuitry may determine a relative position of the body part with respect to the user interface based on the position data, and may determine if the body part is interacting with the user interface based on the relative position. If it is determined that the body part is interacting with the user interface, the processing circuitry may cause the tactile feedback circuitry to generate directional feedback.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2016Date of Patent: December 29, 2020Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Kevin J.

Patent number: 9515031Abstract: In accordance with one aspect of the present description, a transmission line such as a microstrip or stripline transmission line, has stub-shaped projections adapted to compensate simultaneously for both far-end crosstalk (FEXT) induced by inductive coupling between the transmission line and an adjacent transmission line, and also far-end crosstalk induced by inductive coupling between the vertical electrical interconnect at the far end of the transmission line and an adjacent vertical electrical interconnect electrically connected to the adjacent transmission line. In another aspect of the present description, a microstrip transmission line may have multiple stubby line sections having different resistances and impedances to more gradually transition from to the typically low impedance characteristics of vertical interconnects such as the PTH vias and socket connectors. Other aspects are described.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2011Date of Patent: December 6, 2016Assignee: INTEL CORPORATIONInventors: Nevin Altunyurt, Kemal Aygun, Kevin J. Doran, Yidnekachew S.

Publication number: 20160174362Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms to mitigate noise in a signal line extending across rails arranged in a split plane configuration. In an embodiment, respective sides of a first rail and a second rail define opposite sides of a boundary region between the rails. The first rail forms a groove and the second rail forms a branch portion that extends at least in part into the groove. In another embodiment, one or more signal lines each extend across the boundary region and proximate to the branch portion, the one or more signals each to communicate a respective signal while the first rail is at a first voltage and while the second rail is at a second voltage. The branch portion and groove contribute to a reduced impedance discontinuity across the boundary region, which mitigates the creation of signal noise in the one or more signal lines.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 12, 2014Publication date: June 16, 2016Inventors: Kevin J. Doran, Stephen H. Hall, Thomas D. Whiteley, Kai Xiao, Yuan-Liang Li, Jimmy Hsu, Thonas Yi-Ren Su
