  • Patent number: 11594066
    Abstract: A fingerprint sensor-compatible overlay material which uses anisotropic conductive material to enable accurate imaging of a fingerprint through an overlay is disclosed. The anisotropic conductive material has increased conductivity in a direction orthogonal to the fingerprint sensor, increasing the capacitive coupling of the fingerprint to the sensor surface, allowing the fingerprint sensor to accurately image the fingerprint through the overlay. Methods for forming a fingerprint sensor-compatible overlay are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 9244576
    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods of touch discrimination are described. One method receives data from an occupant classification system and sets a touch detection threshold of a touch-sensing device based on the received data. The method may be used to discriminate between an adult touch and a child touch and to selectively allow access to control functionality to adults and not to children.

  • Patent number: 8587546
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide multi-panel display systems and methods for operating the same. Content is generated on a first display device based on first user input received through a user interface device coupled to the first display device. Second user input is received on the user interface device. The generated content is displayed on a second display device in response to the receiving of the second user input on the user interface device.

  • Patent number: 7408396
    Abstract: Disclosed is a circuit to provide protection from an over voltage signal. The circuit protects against load dumps or positive transients applied to any electronic unit. The circuit isolates the protected circuitry from the transient voltage by two ways. The circuit limits the current flow and clamping the voltage using a small package zener diode. Additionally, the circuit causes a specific voltage drop between the applied transient and the protected circuit.
