摘要： The present invention provides a haptics control system that may include a driver to generate a continuous drive signal and to output the drive signal to a mechanical system on an electrical signal line, wherein the continuous drive signal causes the mechanical system to vibrate to produce a haptic effect. The haptics control system may further include a monitor, coupled to the electrical signal line, to capture a Back Electromotive Force (BEMF) signal generated by the mechanical system in the electrical signal line, to measure a BEMF signals attribute, and to transmit an adjustment signal to the driver based on the BEMF signals attribute. The driver is further configured to adjust the continuous drive signal according to the adjustment signal.

摘要： A method and a device for detecting user input includes receiving a user input at an input arrangement of a user interface. The input arrangement has at least one piezoelectric sensor that generates an electric signal in response to the input. The electric signal is processed to determine the presence of the input. The processing may indicate the magnitude of the force of the input, in addition to the input's location. An output arrangement of the user interface generates an output in response to the processing. The output may be a haptic, audio or visual output.

摘要： The present disclosure provides numerous applications for the use of liquid crystal polarization gratings (LCPGs) to controllably steer light. When combined with an image sensor, light generated or reflected from different fields of view (FOV) can be steered, allowing an increase in the FOV or the resolution of the image. Further, the LCPG can stabilize the resulting image, counteracting any movement of the image sensor. The combination of LCPGs and liquid crystal waveguides (LCWGs) allows fine deflection control of light (from the LCWG) over a wild field of view (from the LCPG). Further applications of LCPGs include object tracking and the production of depth images using multiple imaging units and independently steered LCPGs. The LCPG may be used in controlling both the projection and reception of light.
