Abstract:
The general field of the invention is that of touchscreen devices with projected capacitive detection comprising a touch-sensitive matrix panel comprising a plurality of conductive rows and conductive columns, said panel being connected to electronic control means. The electronic control means generate two periodic transmission voltages transmitted at two different frequencies. Analysis of the reception voltages is used to determine the positions of presses on the touch-sensitive panel, including when a row or column is cut. Pressing on a cut row or column is basically determined by calculating the barycenters of ‘virtual’ hollows in the reception voltages corresponding to this cut row or column.

The general field of the invention is that of monochromatic stereoscopic image projectors including two light sources that illuminate two imagers, the radiation of the two light sources having a spectral distribution centred on a central wavelength, the first imager and the second imager being connected to a generator of stereoscopic image pairs. The image projector includes a dichroic separating filter that transmits the portion of the spectrum below the central wavelength and that reflects the portion of the spectrum above this central wavelength. The first light source and the second light source are arranged symmetrically on either side of the dichroic separating filter. The image projector operates cyclically, each cycle including two alternations. Each alternation consists in changing the emission source and in switching to the two displays the left and right images emitted by the generator of image pairs.
