  • Patent number: 9998118
    Abstract: Flexible sheet made of polymer material, preferably a plastics-material sheet provided with a grain structure or embossing, which has functional surface-area regions designed in the form of a switching, sensor or operating element such that the sheet is of multi-layered design at least in the region of the functional surface-area regions, wherein at least one layer made of conductive polymer material is arranged in the functional surface-area regions, wherein the layer made of conductive material is spaced apart, on the rear side, from the visible surface of the sheet and is connected to an electronic control and regulating device, which detects changes in electrical properties of the sheet in the functional surface-area regions and converts these into actuating, switching or control signals.
    Type: Grant
