Turning Surfaces into Touch Panels: A Granite-Touch Pad
نویسندگان
چکیده
Touch sensing interfaces are used in many human to machine applications with the natural feeling to the touch missing. We propose the use of humantenna touch technique to turn surfaces of natural or arti cial conductive or semi-conductive materials into passive touch pads. Because of the conductivity of the human body, AC power lines induce a voltage on the human body which is used as the touch trigger. By the use of electrodes mounted at the edges of the surface, the ratio of voltage detected is used to compute the touch location. Granite touch pad was implemented as an example, and the voltage detected at the electrodes due to various touch locations is presented.

Sound Collage Creation on a Curved Touch Display
We present a novel audio workspace for creating sound collages based on a vertically curved display. In contrast to flat interactive surfaces, this form factor avoids ergonomic problems of tabletop displays or vertical touch screens and enables continuous touch interaction across vertical and horizontal display parts. Additionally, it allows combining established software and hardware component...

As a transparent conductive film for touch panels, FUJITSU COMPONENT and FUJITSU LABORATORIES have jointly developed an organic conductive polymer film with excellent environmental resistance, high conductivity, and transparency and have applied it in a touch panel product. This product has better endurance than touch panels adopting conventional ITO films and a lifetime of 10-fold or longer th...
متن کاملSeveral Sensor Approaches that Retrofit Large Surfaces for Interactivity
Several different techniques are described for turning a large wall into an interactive surface. These include capacitive sensing of arm and body gesture, scanning laser rangefinders for tracking hands above video walls, passive tracking of knocks on large plates of glass with distributed acoustic pickups, and the detection of touch via frustrated total internal reflection.
متن کاملTouch-panel Usability for Children
In the past few years, touch panels have increasingly been used in children’s education, and more research has been devoted to the development of electronic schoolbag. However, children often encounter difficulties operating touch screens, possibly due to their relative lack of experience using computers or touch panels, or because of the small size of their hands. This study investigates the d...
متن کاملLCD In-Cell Touch
to the implementation of a touch sensor inside the cell of a liquid-crystal display (LCD). While the term and technology have been applied to touch sensors integrated into plasma-display panels, electrophoretic (electronic paper) displays, and OLEDs, this article examines only the application in LCDs. LCD in-cell touch currently exists in three forms, only one of which is physically inside the ...
