Abstract: A soluble laminate, a laminated paper, and a packaging material including the soluble laminate are provided. The laminate may include a first layer including a paper and a second layer including a film. The paper and the film may be at least partially soluble. The first layer may include a first paper surface and a second paper surface. The first paper surface may face towards the second layer, and the second paper surface may face away from the second layer. The second layer may have a first film surface and a second film surface. The first film surface may face away from the first layer and the second film surface may face toward the first layer. At least some of the first paper surface and at least some of the second film surface may be partially dissolved and adhered to one another.

Abstract: A method of projected capacitance touch sensing on a display includes updating the display by applying a drive waveform to each pixel of the display over a plurality of frame periods to update a pixel state. The updating includes selecting each row of the display in turn and repeating a frame update to drive pixels with successive time slices of the drive waveforms. The method further includes sensing a signal from a projected capacitance touch sensing electrode of the display during a sensing interval to provide a touch sensing response; identifying when column drive levels of the drive waveforms for pixels of one selected row change by more than a threshold level between the selected row and a next selected row; and inhibiting the touch sensing responsive to the column drive row change signal indicating a greater than the threshold level change of the drive levels between the selected rows.

Abstract: A method of projected capacitance touch sensing on a display screen, the method comprising: updating said display screen by applying a drive waveform to each pixel of the display screen over a plurality of frame periods, wherein a said drive waveform for a pixel defines a transition of the pixel from a current pixel state to an updated pixel state over said plurality of frame periods, and wherein said updating comprises selecting each row of said display screen in turn for a row driving period and driving columns of the display screen with a time slice of drive waveforms for pixels of the row to perform a frame update of said display screen, and repeating said frame update to drive pixels of said display with a plurality of successive time slices of said drive waveforms to drive said pixels with said drive waveforms; sensing a signal from a projected capacitance touch sensing electrode of said display screen during a sensing interval, and using said sensing to provide a touch sensing response; identifying whe

Abstract: The tape for protecting and mechanically supporting an optical, power, or other such cable is disclosed. An open cell foam layer is coated or layered with a super absorbent layer that is attached to one side of a support layer. In this arrangement, when exposed to water the super absorbent layer expands or swells into the open cell layer. The inner core of the cable is surrounded by the tape with the side of the open cell layer distal from the super absorbent layer facing the inner core. The support layer may have the protective open cell and super absorbent combination attached to both sides of the support layer.
