  • Publication number: 20160202777
    Abstract: Configurations of a stylus and controlling methods thereof are disclosed. The proposed stylus causes a touch panel to generate a signal by an electrical field generated by a magnetic field via one of a conductor and an electric plate, wherein the stylus includes a set of windings and a magnet, which can move towards each other and generate a current on the set of windings through interaction. The current flows through the conductor/electric plate on a tip of the stylus to generate one of an electric flux line and a magnetic flux line such that the touch panel can sense the movement of the stylus.

  • Publication number: 20150054796
    Abstract: A light-energy stylus with a light guide having a distal end disposed near a tip of a housing and exposed on a surface of the housing. Light enters the light guide from the distal end, travels through the light guide and is then collected at a proximal end of the light guide. A photovoltaic element converts the collected light into electrical energy. Accordingly, in addition to performing touch functions, the light-energy stylus may execute bi-directional data communication with a touch panel.

  • Publication number: 20150042617
    Abstract: A light-energy sensing apparatus includes a photovoltaic element that converts light emitted from a touch screen into electrical energy as power for a processor. Data is transferred, via an interface, between the processor and an electronic device. A signal transceiver is coupled to receive and amplify signals outputted from the processor, the amplified signals being then transmitted to the touch screen; or, alternatively, the signal transceiver is coupled to receive signals from the touch screen, the received signals being transmitted to the electronic device via the interface.

  • Patent number: 7584031
    Abstract: A method for detecting errors in driving device of head light of vehicles utilizes a microprocessor control unit of a main circuit to detect the position of the driving shaft by checking the change of magnetic field or resistance of the driving member and the change of magnetic field or resistance is compared with a pre-set value to decide the position of the driving shaft. The motor is then commanded to drive the driving shaft to the pre-set position. The method detects the position of the head light before the drivers drive the vehicles on the road and if the head light is not in a desired position, the user can adjust the head light position to prevent potential risk on the road.

  • Publication number: 20070151408
    Abstract: An electric control mechanism for light unit includes a motor which has a driving member connected to an output shaft of the motor and an adjust rod is connected to the driving member which drives the adjust rod to move linearly. The adjust rod is connected to the light unit. The motor is received in a motor case and a cap is mounted to the motor case. The adjust rod movably extends through the cap. A variable resistance has a slide member which is connected tot eh adjust rod so that when the adjust rod is moved, the slide member moves with the adjust rod so that the control circuit detects the change of resistance. The control circuit may adjust the light unit according to the value of the resistance.
