Abstract: Disclosed is a touch position detection method for a touch control device, which employs a preset scan detection mode to carry out driving and scan detection on first and second conductive layers through a control circuit. When touch on a touch panel is detected, the type of the touch is determined, which may include a single-point touch, a continuous trace, and a multiple-point touch, and first and second operation modes are selectively used to perform driving and scan detection on the first and second conductive layers of the touch panel to thereby detect coordinates of the touch points or the continuous trace.

Abstract: A capacitive touch screen suitable for use in an interactive information display includes a first transparent glass substrate having first and second surfaces and a thickness of less than or equal to about 0.3 millimeters, and a second substrate having third and fourth surfaces and a transparent conductive thin film disposed at the third surface thereof. The second surface of the first transparent glass substrate is laminated to the third surface of the second substrate in order to form a capacitive touch screen having enhanced durability. The transparent conductive thin film of the second substrate opposes the second surface of the first transparent glass substrate when the second surface of the first transparent glass substrate is laminated to the third surface of the second substrate.

In addition, the invention also provides a method for manufacturing an in-mold molding touch module.

Abstract: A touch detection device for detecting touches on a given surface. The inventive device includes a surface where a touch generates acoustic waves, transducers that detect these waves, a controller that calculate the location of the touch and a host device where the touch position is used to communicate with the application program. The screen is formed from any material that is capable of propagating acoustic waves. Plurality transducers are placed on the screen. These transducers detect acoustic waves generated on the screen. The screen is calibrated by touching it once and a map of arrival time ratios are generated and saved in the storage unit. During the real time operation, a touch on the screen generates acoustic waves that are detected by transducers. The output of each transducer is sent to a controller unit where the time differences and their ratios are calculated and compared to time ratios in the storage unit to detect the touch location.

Abstract: An adaptive non-contact testing method is provided for testing a touch panel, wherein an air nozzle generates an air jet toward a selected position on a touch panel under testing to cause the touch panel to generate a touch signal. A testing system receives the touch signal generated by the touch panel and compares the received touch signal with a preset touch-signal reference level. When the received touch signal is smaller than the preset touch-signal reference level, the height distance between the air nozzle and the touch panel is reduced or the pressure of the air jet from the air nozzle is varied to realize adaptive testing of the touch panel.

Abstract: A component for an information display device has a transparent substrate having a surface that has a first refractive index. The surface is selectively coated in a pattern comprising a transparent electrically conductive layer disposed at least at a first region of the surface and at a second region of the surface. The first region of the surface is separated from the second region by a third region that is devoid of the transparent conductive layer. The transparent conductive layer has a second refractive index that is higher than the first refractive index. The first, second and third regions are commonly overcoated with a transparent layer comprising non-conductive nanoparticles, the overcoating layer being disposed over the transparent conductive layer at the first and second regions and also disposed over the third region that is devoid of the transparent conductive layer. The refractive index of the layer comprising nanoparticles is higher than the first refractive index.
