  • Patent number: 9983740
    Abstract: An apparatus and a method of manufacturing the apparatus is provided. The apparatus comprises: a first electromagnetic shielding layer; a second electromagnetic shielding layer; at least one sensing layer, positioned between the first electromagnetic shielding layer and the second electromagnetic shielding layer, comprising an array of touch sensors and multiple traces for connecting the touch sensors to touch sensing circuitry; and at least one electromagnetic shielding wall, extending from the first electromagnetic shielding layer to the second electromagnetic shielding layer, for shielding one or more of the multiple traces from conductive user input objects.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 23, 2014
    Date of Patent: May 29, 2018
    Assignee: Nokia Technologies Oy
    Inventors: Esa Juhani Mäkeläinen, Janne Edvin Lesonen
  • Patent number: 9417742
    Abstract: An apparatus including: an array of capacitive sensor electrodes including a plurality of distinct capacitive sensor electrodes distributed in two orthogonal directions over a sensing area; and a plurality of conductive traces each of which is operatively connected to one of the first plurality of distinct capacitive sensor electrodes, wherein at least some of the conductive traces are routed over the sensing area and are opaque metal traces.
    Type: Grant
