  • Display system with finger sensing
    Patent number: 11960683
    Abstract: A display system for sensing a finger of a user applied to the display system includes a display panel; a sensor for sensing the finger; a sensing light source configured to emit a first light having a first wavelength W1; and a reflective polarizer disposed between the display panel and the sensor. For a substantially normally incident light, an optical transmittance of the reflective polarizer versus wavelength for a first polarization state has a band edge such that for a first wavelength range extending from a smaller wavelength L1 to a greater wavelength L2 and including W1, where 30 nm?L2?L1?50 nm and L1 is greater than and within about 20 nm of a wavelength L3 corresponding to an optical transmittance of about 50% along the band edge, the optical transmittance has an average of greater than about 75%.

  • System and method for rapid defect entry
    Patent number: 11663548
    Abstract: A defects management system includes a server, a mobile computing device, and a local hub. The server has a database configured to store a plurality of records that respectively correspond to a plurality of products in an inspection line. The mobile computing device is configured to receive user input indicating a location of a defect on a selected product among the plurality of products. The local hub, in communication with the server, is configured to receive the user input from the mobile computing device and update a record among the plurality of records that corresponds to the selected product to include a defect indication in accordance with the user input.
