Abstract:
The general field of the invention is that of systems having a capacitive touch screen. The system according to the invention has a portable capacitive device that is intended, in operational mode, to be carried by a user. The touch screen operates at at least one first frequency. The system operates according to at least one first identification mode in which the portable device has transmission means for transmitting a first periodic analogue signal that is transmitted at a second frequency, referred to as “identification” frequency, that is different from the first frequency, said frequency being in a range of frequencies that are transmitted by the human body, said first signal being unique and associated with the user. The portable touch screen has first means for detecting and identifying said first signal and second means for authorizing or denying access to predetermined applications of the touch screen, which are dependent on the identification of the user. Other modes of operation of the system are possible.
Abstract:
A device with touch surface with projected capacitive detection comprising a matrix touchscreen comprises a plurality of conductive rows and of conductive columns, the screen linked to electronic control means generating, for each conductive row and for each conductive column, transmission signals and electronic means for receiving and analysing the reception signals from each conductive row and from each conductive column. Each row of the device comprises, at one of its ends, first means for generating a first transmission signal and first means for receiving a first reception signal and, at its opposite end, second means for generating a second transmission signal and second means for receiving a second reception signal, the first transmission signal and the second transmission signal being synchronous, having the same frequency, the same amplitude and the same phase.
