  • DETECTION DEVICE, ELECTRONIC APPARATUS, AND ROBOT
    Publication number: 20140318270
    Abstract: A detection device includes a first substrate having a plurality of force sensors disposed around respective reference points, and a second substrate on which is formed elastic protrusions whose centers of gravity are positioned in positions that overlap with respective reference points and that elastically deform due to the force in a state in which the tips of the elastic protrusions make contact with the first substrate. The second substrate is an elastic material having a predetermined elasticity.
    Type: Application

  • Electro-optical apparatus having faces holding electro-optical material in between flattened by using concave recess, manufacturing method thereof, and electronic device using same
    Publication number: 20030184705
    Abstract: The electro-optical apparatus of the invention has a pair of substrates and an electro-optical material held between these substrates. The TFT array substrate may be formed into a concave shape in non-aperture areas containing the data line, the scanning line, the capacitor line and the TFT. Further, the areas opposite to the connecting lines in the sealed area may be formed into a concave shape. In the electro-optical apparatus having such a configuration, it is possible to reduce steps resulting from the presence of various wiring lines and elements in the image display area and the sealed area, by the use of a relatively simple configuration.
