  • Patent number: 8432373
    Abstract: A touch panel having a first panel and a second panel, wherein the first panel has a voltage providing area connected to a power source and the second panel has a patterned resistive element facing the voltage providing area so that when a touch event on the touch panel occurs, the first panel is caused to make contact with and provide a voltage to the second panel at one or more contact points on the resistive element. By measuring the voltage on one or both ends of the resistive element, it is possible to determine the two-dimensional coordinates of each contact point. The touch panel can have one or more resistive elements located at different touch areas for sensing one or more touch points in a touch event.

  • Publication number: 20110057898
    Abstract: In a touch-sensing structure for a touch panel and a touch-sensing method thereof, the touch-sensing structure includes a plurality of first conducting wires paralleled to each other and a first conductor. A terminal of each first conducting wire is electrically coupled to the first conductor, so as to divide the conductor into a plurality of first line segments. The resistance of each first conducting wire is smaller than that of each first line segment. Wherein, when the displaying area of the touch panel receives an external force, a first conducting wire corresponding to the position designated by the external force is electrically coupled to a reference potential.
