  • Patent number: 9905198
    Abstract: A display panel includes a first substrate, a shading module, a second substrate, optical sensors, and a parallel-to-serial converter. The shading module is disposed on the first substrate. The second substrate is disposed corresponding to the first substrate. The optical sensors are disposed on the second substrate, and are disposed corresponding to the shading module. The optical sensors are configured to output sensing signals according to an offset amount between the optical sensors and the shading module. One of the optical sensors includes a first switch and a second switch, in which the first switch and the second switch are coupled in cascade. The parallel-to-serial converter is configured to generate the serial signal according to the sensing signals.

  • Patent number: 9227371
    Abstract: An optical lens includes a lens portion having an optical axis, and an exterior portion connected to an outer periphery of the lens portion. The exterior portion has first and second surfaces that are disposed along a direction parallel to the optical axis and spaced apart from each other, a first annular surface that extends from a periphery of the second surface parallelly with respect to the optical axis, and a second annular surface that interconnects the first annular surface and the first surface. The second annular surface extends obliquely with respect to the first annular surface.
