Jacob E. Ben-Poorat has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10838246
    Abstract: A force-sensitive display assembly provides a user input that is reliable, consumes a relatively small amount of power, and protects against water, dust, and other environmental ingress. The force-sensitive display may be implemented using a force-sensing substrate, such as a force-sensing resistor (FSR). The FSR provides a change in output resistance in response to a change in pressure applied to the FSR. In an embodiment, the FSR enables detection of a tap input on a display.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9748680
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are devices and methods for a multiple contact probe. The multiple contact probe may include a first contact interface and a second contact interface. The first contact interface may be electrically isolated from the second contact interface. A plunger assembly may be slidably engaged between the first contact interface and the second contact interface. The plunger assembly may be slidable between an extended configuration and a retracted configuration along a longitudinal direction of the plunger assembly. The plunger assembly may include a first electrical contact and a second electrical contact. The first electrical contact may be in electrical contact with the first contact interface and the second electrical contact may be in electrical contact with the second contact interface. A bias element may be engaged with the plunger assembly, for instance, the bias element may be configured to bias the plunger assembly to the extended configuration.
