Abstract: A floating touch method and a touch device are provided. The touch device includes a capacitive touch panel and a sensor circuit. The capacitive touch panel includes separate electrode units and connecting traces corresponding to the separate electrode units one-on-one. At first, the sensor circuit controls the capacitive touch panel to sense a control object within different sensing ranges at different time points to determine a distance-related value between the control object and the capacitive touch panel. Then, the sensor circuit controls the capacitive touch panel to detect a floating touch action of the control object based on the distance-related value. Subsequently, the sensor circuit issues a control signal corresponding to the floating touch action to enable the touch device or the capacitive touch panel to perform a specific function.

Abstract: A touch panel includes a base, which is a liquid crystal module serving as a ground; a flexible dielectric layer over the base; and a one-dimensional pattern layer with sensor cells positioned as the same layer over the flexible dielectric layer. The sensor cells form a sensor array, and each of the sensor cells is individually controlled and sensed via an independent sensing line, wherein press sensing control is conducted according to a capacitance change resulting from a distance change between the sensor array and the base in response to an external force, and touch or gesture-based sensing control is conducted according to a capacitance change in the sensor array without involving the base.
