Abstract: A cover glass integrated sensor has an excellent visibility of sharp outlines of the display screen as seen through the cover glass and has a sense of unity in appearance in portions surrounding the display screen. The cover glass integrated sensor includes a cover glass and a capacitance type film sensor. The cover glass includes a glass substrate and a first frame-like light-blocking layer made of a screen printing film formed on peripheral portion on the rear surface of the glass substrate. The capacitance type film sensor has a second frame-like light-blocking layer made of an exposure/development product of color resist material formed on a periphery of the front surface. The capacitance type film sensor is attached to a rear surface of the cover glass. An inner edge of the second frame-like light-blocking layer is closer to the center than an inner edge of the first frame-like light-blocking layer.

Abstract: An information input apparatus includes a panel member having a touch type information input function, a package having a support portion for supporting the panel member, a pressure detection portion provided between/across the panel member and the support portion for detecting a pressure operation force to the panel member, and an initial load applying portion provided between/across/across the panel member and the support portion and configured to draw the panel member and the support portion toward each other, thereby to apply an initial load to the pressure detection portion, so that an information input operation corresponding to a pressing force to the panel member can be performed speedily.

Abstract: A portable device including a transparent cover (1) having a light transmittance of not less than 50%. A circuit pattern of a conductive material is provided in the cover between two sheet-like transparent substrates (5a). A device main body (2) is coupled to the transparent cover 1 thereto in an openable/closable manner such that members provided on a surface thereof are concealed or exposed by the transparent cover (1) being opened or closed. An open/close determination part (7) is provided for determining whether the transparent cover is open or closed, and function switching parts (22, 23) are provided for switching functions of the circuit pattern based on the determination of the open/close determination part as to whether the transparent cover is open or closed.

Abstract: Provided is a transparent thin plate including a transparent substrate in a sheet form, a mesh layer formed on a surface of the transparent substrate and made of an opaque material having a structure wherein an outline of meshes is made of bands that are very thin and have a substantially equal width, and having a light transmittance of 50% or more, and a colored layer that is arranged in a state that the layer is laminated in a partial area of the mesh layer and on the surface of the mesh layer, and has a color different from that of the opaque material constituting the mesh layer.

Abstract: A pressure sensor (40) comprises a pair of electrodes (16a), (16b), a base film (31) on which at least one electrode is disposed, an upper film (6) facing the base film (31), a pressure sensitive ink layer (30) disposed so as to be able to cover the pair of electrodes (16a, 16b) and having electrical characteristics changed by applied pressing force, and a spacer (10) having adhesive properties and interposed between the base film (31) and the upper film (6).

Abstract: A transparent antenna for a display, for example, a portable telephone, the transparent antenna performing good transmission and reception, not bulky, and not impairing design of an apparatus. The transparent antenna for a display has an insulating sheet-like transparent substrate and has a planar antenna pattern formed on the surface of the transparent substrate. An electrically conductive section of the antenna pattern is constructed from an electrically conductive thin film of a mesh structure, outlines of each mesh are constituted from extra fine bands with substantially the same width, and the light transmittance of the section where the antenna pattern is formed is equal to or more than 70%.
