Publication number: 20250348168Abstract: A touch device is provided, including a touch pad, a screen, a control unit, and a processing unit. The touch pad is adapted to perform hover detection and touch detection on an object. The screen is adapted to display an operating interface. The control unit is configured to: determine that the object is currently in a hover state or a touch state; output hover detection information when the object is currently in the hover state; and output touch detection information when the object is currently in the touch state. The processing unit is electrically coupled to the control unit and the screen, and configured to generate a position labeling pattern based on the hover detection information and display the position labeling pattern on the operating interface, and generate a touch input instruction adapted to control the operating interface based on the touch detection information. A touch method is further provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2024Publication date: November 13, 2025Inventors: Ya-Ting CHEN, Hung-Yi LIN, Hao-Ping LIN, Wen-Hsiang LEE

Patent number: 10466814Abstract: An electronic system comprising an electronic device and an indicating device is provided. The indicating device includes a wireless communication circuit configured to be communicated with the electronic device, a switch circuit, a motion sensor for detecting a movement of the indicating device, and a control unit coupled to the wireless communication circuit, the motion sensor and the switch circuit. In a period that the switch circuit is triggered, the motion sensor detects a plurality of three-dimensional rotation matrices of the indicating device in the space. A movement trace of the indicating device is computed by the electronic device according to the three-dimensional rotation matrices, and a corresponding operating function is enabled according to the movement trace. An operating method and an indicating device is further provided.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2017Date of Patent: November 5, 2019Assignee: ASUSTEK COMPUTER INC.Inventors: Hung-Yi Lin, Yi-Lun Lai, Hao-Ping Lin

Patent number: 10199959Abstract: The piezoelectric actuator of the present invention has at least one ceramic component. The ceramic component has an output surface and two driving surfaces. The ceramic component has a height and the output surface is rectangular in shape, wherein the length of the short axis side of the output surface is shorter than the height. Therefore, when a pulse wave input voltage is applied on the driving surfaces, the output surface generates an elliptical motion.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2016Date of Patent: February 5, 2019Assignee: CHUNG-YUAN CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITYInventors: Yung Ting, Sheuan-Perng Lin, Hao-Ping Lin
