  • Patent number: 9612475
    Abstract: The front light module includes a light guide plate, a light source, a first light transmissive substrate, a second light transmissive substrate, and a printing ink layer. The light guide plate has a first light emitting surface, a second light emitting surface, and a light incident surface. The light source faces the light incident surface. The first light transmissive substrate is located on the first light emitting surface. The second light transmissive substrate is located on the surface of the first light transmissive substrate facing away from the light guide plate, and the thickness of the second light transmissive substrate is smaller than that of the first light transmissive substrate. The printing ink layer is located on the surface of the second light transmissive substrate facing the first light transmissive substrate, and on an edge of the second light transmissive substrate.

  • Patent number: 9513728
    Abstract: A touch sensor includes a substrate, a touch sensing layer, a first processor and a second processor. The substrate includes a first area and a second area. The first area and the second area are on the same surface of the substrate. The touch sensing layer is disposed on the substrate, and includes a first group of conductive patterns and a second group of conductive patterns. The first group of conductive patterns is disposed on the first area, and includes a plurality of first conductive patterns. The second group of conductive patterns is disposed on the second area, and includes a plurality of second conductive patterns. The first processor is electrically connected to the first conductive patterns. The second processor is electrically connected to the second conductive patterns.

  • Publication number: 20140015767
    Abstract: A touch panel including a first and a second substrates, a first and a second sensing electrode layers, plural first lines, plural second lines, a conductive material layer and a shielding layer is provided. The first and the second sensing electrode layers are respectively disposed on the first and the second substrates and located in a sensing region. The first and the second lines are disposed on the first substrate and located in a periphery region. The first lines connect to the first sensing electrode layer. The optical adhesive layer encapsulates the first and the second sensing electrode layers and the first and the second lines. The optical adhesive layer has an opening. The conductive material layer is disposed inside the opening. The second lines connect to the second sensing electrode layer via the conductive material layer. The shielding layer is located above the first and the second lines.
