摘要:
Surface acoustic waves are propagated in a lower-left oblique direction and a lower-right oblique direction from an excitation element located on the upper side of a non-piezoelectric substrate and then received by receiving elements located on the left side and the right side, while surface acoustic waves are propagated in an upper-left oblique direction and an upper-right oblique direction from an excitation element located on the lower side of the non-piezoelectric substrate and then received by the receiving elements located on the left side and the right side. Based on the received results at the two receiving elements, a position of an object in contact with the non-piezoelectric substrate is detected. The sensitivity in a region near the diagonal, which is influenced largely by propagation loss of the surface acoustic waves, is improved by increasing the widths of the electrode fingers of the excitation elements and/or the receiving elements, the number of pairs of the electrode fingers, or the aperture width of comb-like electrodes, according to an increase in the propagation distances of the surface acoustic waves, i.e., toward the region near the diagonal.
摘要:
A burst wave is applied to an excitation element of a touch panel main body from an oscillation section so as to excite surface acoustic waves, and the excited surface acoustic waves are received by a receiving element of the touch panel main body. The received signals are A/D converted by a receiving section, and a control section calculates the contact position and the contact width of the object in contact with the touch panel main body, based on time-series changes in the received strength. Based on the received strength of surface acoustic waves, the control section controls the wave number of the burst wave to be applied to the excitation element.

It is an object of the invention to provide a method for forming printing inspection data in which the use of a mask plate makes it possible to simply and efficiently form the inspecting data.In a method for forming printing inspection data for obtaining mask opening data from an image got by picking-up the image of a mask plate to form the inspecting data, when an image pick-up visual field 20a is sequentially moved to visual field positions having a grid-shaped arrangement to obtain a plurality of images, if incomplete opening parts 16b (X) and (Y) in which parts of the opening parts protrude are detected, ranges BX2 and BY2 which are excluded from an object of data in this image are determined based on these sizes BY1 and BY2. When the image pick-up visual field is moved to an adjacent visual field position, the image pick-up visual field is overlapped on the adjacent image pick-up visual field by BX2, BY2 to include these opening parts in the adjacent image pick-up visual field. Thus, an inconvenience that the opening parts protrude in the image is eliminated so that the inspecting data can be simply and efficiently formed.
