    Abstract: A touch device warning method and a touch device warning system are provided. The touch device warning method provides multiple judgment mechanisms. The multiple judgment mechanisms include the mechanism of judging whether a touch device is triggered by a touch pen, the mechanism of judging whether the touch device is moved and the mechanism of judging whether an untouched time period of the touch pen and the touch device exceeds a predetermined time. Once the conditions of the judgment mechanisms are satisfied, the touch device warning method warns the user of taking back the touch pen. Consequently, the possibility of losing the touch pen is reduced, and the occurrence of the erroneous judgment is avoided.

  • Patent number: 8928952
    Abstract: A scanning apparatus includes a scanning module, a calibration plate, and a driving module. The calibration plate includes a first background region for calibrating the brightness of the scanning module and a second background region for intensifying an edge of a document to be scanned. The driving module is used for driving movement of the calibration plate. As a consequence, the scanning light beam from the scanning module is projected onto the first background region or the second background region of the calibration plate. Under this circumstance, the purposes of calibrating the brightness and increasing the image processing efficiency are both achieved. Moreover, since the calibration plate is driven by the driving module to be moved in the direction parallel with said scanning light beam, the purpose of dynamically adjusting the brightness can be achieved.
