  • Publication number: 20230268922
    Abstract: A control device with a capacitive-type visual key structure is provided. The control device includes a covering member and a transparent keycap. The covering member includes an accommodation space. The transparent keycap is accommodated within the accommodation space. An elastic element, a first electrode, a key circuit board assembly with a second electrode and a display panel are accommodated within the accommodation space. When the transparent keycap is pressed down, the elastic element is correspondingly moved, and a spatial distance between the first electrode and the second electrode is changed. Consequently, a capacitance change value is formed. According to the capacitance change value, the control device judges whether the transparent keycap is pressed down and triggered.

  • Publication number: 20230214105
    Abstract: A multimedia content editing controller includes a microcontroller, a data storage device, a display device and a function selection device. The microcontroller receives plural editing function options from an external computer host. The plural editing function options are stored in the data storage device. The plural editing function options are displayed on the display device. When a user performs at least one function selection operation through the function selection device, the microcontroller determines at least one selected editing function option from the plural editing function options, and the microcontroller generates a human-machine interaction control signal. The at least one selected editing function option is transmitted from the microcontroller to the external computer host. The human-machine interaction control signal is transmitted to at least one of the display device and a LED display module.

  • Publication number: 20230214172
    Abstract: A control device is connected with a microphone and a display device. The control device can be used to implement a microphone gain setting process. The control device includes an adjustment knob. When the adjustment knob of the control device is pressed down, the control device starts to implement the microphone gain setting process. At the same time, a message is shown on the display device to prompt that the control device starts to implement the microphone gain setting process and prompt the user to emit a sound to the microphone for a time period. Consequently, the sound is amplified by a signal gain amplifier of the control device. Then, a message is shown on the display device to prompt the user that the microphone gain setting process is completed.
