  • Patent number: 10827589
    Abstract: The invention relates to a touch panel device for a dimmer lighting control system and a method for controlling a light circuit. The device comprises a touch sensitive surface; a light sensor; a motion sensor and a processor operatively connected to the touch sensitive surface, the light sensor, the motion sensor for generating control signal. The processor is configured for modifying the control signal based on a learning from a stored historical data in a secondary device, accepting or rejecting a device operation using a user input.

  • Publication number: 20190029096
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a multiple input touch control system having a touch sensitive surface capable of detecting a touch input, a sensor that detects an ambient condition within a sensing space adjacent to the device, a processing means operatively connected to the touch sensitive surface and the sensor for generating control signals based on detection of the touch input on the touch sensitive surface and/or ambient conditions wherein, in use, the control system can be controlled manually with the touch panel device and/or controlled autonomously in response to ambient conditions in the sensing space.

  • Publication number: 20180228003
    Abstract: The invention relates to a touch panel device for a dimmer lighting control system, the device comprising a touch sensitive surface capable of detecting a touch input; a light sensor that detects ambient light levels within a sensing area adjacent to the device; a processing means operatively connected to the touch sensitive surface and the light sensor for generating control signals based on detection of the touch input on the touch sensitive surface and/or ambient light levels wherein, in use, the total light output of a light circuit can be controlled manually with the touch panel device and/or controlled autonomously by the level of ambient light in the sensing area.

  • Publication number: 20130127667
    Abstract: An imaging system (1) comprises an antenna array (2), 24 GHz transceivers (3), and a digital receiver (4) including an ADC and circuits for filtering. The digital receives commands from the host PC (5) and passes data to the host PC (5) for display. The host PC 5 initiates volume scans, performs system diagnostics and error reporting, and collects scan data and displays it for the operator. The digital receiver (4) presents the scan requests to the antenna array (2) in a synchronised manner. All control signals in the antenna array are presented via a presentation clock (an individual presentation clock being generated for sub-sections of the array; of the order of five hundred presentation clocks are generated). The spectral content of each presentation clock is adjusted via a spreading circuit, thus adjusting the spectral interference radiated through the printed circuit board traces to the FET elements that each presentation clock feeds. The spreading clock generation circuit include taps (Tap 1, Tap 2 . .
