  • Patent number: 10223958
    Abstract: A display device includes a first unit pixel disposed in a first pixel column and a first pixel row, and a second unit pixel disposed in the first pixel column and a second pixel row adjacent to the first pixel row, and first and second gate lines extending in a row direction and having gate voltage input pads at a terminal portion thereof. First and second data lines extend in a column direction and are connected to the first unit pixel and the second unit pixel, respectively. A first charge control line extends in the row direction and has a charge control gate voltage input pad disposed at a terminal portion thereof. The first gate line is connected to the first unit pixel and the second gate line is connected to the second unit pixel. The first gate line and the second gate line simultaneously receive a same gate pulse.

  • Patent number: 10216314
    Abstract: A touch sensing apparatus includes a touch sensing surface having a plurality of TX electrodes and a plurality of RX electrodes. The touch sensing apparatus also includes capacitance sensing circuitry. The circuitry receives a plurality of drive signals. For each of a plurality of scanning stages, the circuitry applies a respective one of the plurality of drive signals to each of the plurality of TX electrodes substantially simultaneously according to a respective TX pattern. The respective TX pattern for each scanning stage is distinct. The circuitry receives sense signals from the plurality of RX electrodes. Each of the plurality of sense signals represents capacitance of a respective intersection of a respective TX electrode and a respective RX electrode. The circuitry then correlates the received sense signals for the plurality of scanning stages with the received drive signals to detect an object proximate to the touch panel.

  • Patent number: 10168179
    Abstract: A vehicle display system displays enhanced vision (EV) and synthetic vision (SV) images to an operator of a vehicle. The display system includes: an EV vision image sensor for generating EV images; an SV database containing information regarding terrain and objects of interest for a travel path of a vehicle; an SV image generating unit for generating SV images based on travel of the vehicle and information from the SV database; an EV image sensor control unit for controlling a field of view of the EV image sensor as a function of object of interest information from the SV database; and a display for displaying images generated by said EV image sensor and the SV image generating unit.

  • Patent number: 10157567
    Abstract: A display apparatus includes a display panel, a gate driver, and a gate driving control circuit. The gate driver is connected to the display panel, and generates gate signals for driving the display panel using a gate clock signal. The gate driving control circuit generates the gate clock signal using a gate on voltage and a gate off voltage, determines whether an operation environment is an abnormal temperature environment by comparing a first feedback gate signal with a second feedback gate signal, and adjusts a voltage level of the gate clock signal in the abnormal temperature environment. The first feedback gate signal is retrieved from the display panel while a first frame image is displayed on the display panel. The second feedback gate signal is retrieved from the display panel while a second frame image subsequent to the first frame image is displayed on the display panel.

  • Patent number: 9977544
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to touch technology, and more particularly to a touch device and a method of fabricating the same. The disclosure provides a touch device comprising a protective cover having a sensing area and a peripheral area surrounding the sensing area; a first decoration layer disposed on the peripheral area; a sensing electrode layer comprising a sensing portion disposed on the sensing area and an extension portion extending from the sensing area to the first decoration layer; a second decoration layer disposed on the first decoration layer; a signal line formed on the second decoration layer and connected to the extension portion of the sensing electrode layer. By the design of the foregoing first and second decoration layers, the broken state or interruption of the sensing electrode layer can be prevented. In addition, the disclosure also provides the fabricating method for the foregoing touch device.
