Abstract:
The present invention relates to a sensor device for the detection of a gripping of a hand-held device with one hand. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for the detection of a gripping of a hand-held device with one hand, wherein the hand-held device comprises a sensor device according to the present invention for the detection of the gripping. Furthermore, the invention relates to a hand-held device comprising a sensor device according to the present invention. The sensor device comprises at least one first electrode and at least one second electrode. The first electrode can be operated in a first operating mode. The second electrode can be operated in the first operating mode and in a second operating mode. In the first operating mode, the capacitive coupling between the first electrode and the second electrode is analyzed. In the second operating mode, a capacitive load of the second electrode is analyzed against a reference ground.
Abstract:
The invention provides an anti-trap protection system for a moving system. The anti-trap protection system comprises a capacitor system, with a first electrode device, which comprises a first and a second electrode, and a second electrode device, which comprises a third and a fourth electrode; an LC oscillating circuit formed by the first electrode device and an inductance; a signal generator for charging the first electrode device and the second electrode device with an adjustable frequency and amplitude; and a capacitor for coupling the signal generator with the first electrode device and the second electrode device; whereby the signal provided by the signal generator and the signal present at the LC oscillating circuit form a first indication for an approach of an object to the electric field of the first electrode device, and the signal provided by the signal generator and the signal tapped at the fourth electrode form a second indication for an approach of an object to the electric field of the second electrode device.
