Patent number: 8605053Abstract: A method and a device for detecting user input includes receiving a user input at an input arrangement of a user interface. The input arrangement has at least one piezoelectric sensor that generates an electric signal in response to the input. The electric signal is processed to determine the presence of the input. The processing may indicate the magnitude of the force of the input, in addition to the input's location. An output arrangement of the user interface generates an output in response to the processing. The output may be a haptic, audio or visual output.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2010Date of Patent: December 10, 2013Assignee: Analog Devices, Inc.Inventors: Mark J.

Patent number: 8305200Abstract: A device and method are provided to drive piezoelectric elements in haptic applications. In one embodiment, a pattern generator provides user programmable PWM waveforms to a driver. The load of the driver is an inductor in series with the piezoelectric element. The filtration of the inductor in series with the capacitance of the piezoelectric element suppresses the high-frequency components of the PWM pulse train, and recovers a value commensurate with the duty cycle of the PWM pulse train. The resulting waveform across the piezoelectric element is converted to physical motion, thereby creating a haptic effect on a user interface. Advantageously, there is reduced power loss, reduced switching induced noise, and a more haptic rich environment.Type: GrantFiled: December 2, 2009Date of Patent: November 6, 2012Assignee: Analog Devices, Inc.Inventors: Mark J. Murphy, Alan Gillespie, Eoin Edward English, Donal Geraghty, Dennis A. Dempsey

Publication number: 20120249475Abstract: Techniques to provide a three-dimensional (“3D”) user interface (“UI”) processing system for a device that may include at least one sensor, a 3D display, and a controller. The controller may include a memory, which may store instructional information, and a processor. The processor may be configured to receive sensor data from the sensor(s) and to interpret sensor data according to the instructional information. The processor may generate a user interface command(s) and transmit the command(s) to the 3D display to control and/or manipulate the 3D display. The processor may also generate host commands to control and/or execute applications within a host system of the device.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 29, 2012Publication date: October 4, 2012Applicant: ANALOG DEVICES, INC.Inventors: Mark J.
