Abstract: A method and system for determining distance from a conductor. A signal is infused into object or into a body part. Calibration occurs by moving the object to at least two known distances and measuring the signal. Using the measured signals, a signal-to- distance map can be created and used to determine the distances of additional objects or body parts.

Abstract: Disclosed is a touch-sensitive controller system employing a controller comprising a plurality of separate FMT sensor patterns adapted to detect a variety positions of the human hand. The controller system outputs both touch events as well as data reflective of the hand interaction with the controller. The FMT sensors may be driven by a common signal generator, and can look at body-generate crosstalk to aid in understanding the position, orientation and grip of a hand on the controller. In an embodiment, signal injection can supplement FMT sensor data. Fusion among the data transmitted and received by the plurality of FMT sensors and additional injected signals may provide improved fidelity in both touch and hand modeling.

Abstract: Disclosed are keyboards and keyboard switches sensitive to touch, including, hover and pressure. The keyboard switches have transmit and receive antennae that are spaced apart such that no portion of the transmit antenna touches any portion of the receive antenna. The keyboard switches are arranged in logical rows and logical columns such that each of the keyboard switches is associated with one row and one column. Signal emitters are conductively coupled to the transmit antennae for each of the keyboard switches associated with each of the rows, and each of the signal emitters are adapted to cause each of the transmit antennae to transmit one or more source signals. Receivers are coupled to the receive antennae for each of the keyboard switches associated with each of the columns, and each of the receivers are adapted to capture a frame of signals present on the coupled receive antennae. A signal processor adapted to determine a measurement from each frame, corresponding to an amount of the source signals present on the receive antennae during a time the corresponding frame was received. The signal processor further adapted to determine a keyboard switch touch state from a range of touch states based at least in part on the corresponding measurement.

公开了对触摸敏感的键盘和键盘开关，包括悬停和压力。 键盘开关具有间隔开的发射天线和接收天线，使得发射天线的任何部分都不接触接收天线的任何部分。 键盘开关布置在逻辑行和逻辑列中，使得每个键盘开关与一行和一列相关联。 对于与每一行相关联的每个键盘开关，信号发射器导电地耦合到发射天线，并且每个信号发射器适于使每个发射天线发射一个或多个源信号。 接收机被耦合到与每个列相关联的每个键盘开关的接收天线，并且每个接收机适合于捕获存在于耦合的接收天线上的信号帧。 适合于确定来自每个帧的测量的信号处理器，对应于在接收相应帧的时间期间存在于接收天线上的源信号的量。 信号处理器还适用于至少部分地基于相应的测量结果来从一系列触摸状态确定键盘切换触摸状态。

Abstract: Disclosed is a sensor enabled object. Beacons may be placed at fixed locations within an environment. The movement of the sensor enabled object can be tracked throughout the environment by analyzing received signals. The relative distances from the known positions of the beacons can be used in order to orient the sensor enabled object within the environment. Alternatively, the sensor enabled objects can be used to determine the relative positions of mobile objects by measuring the respective distances from each other and correlating the relationships.

Abstract: A touch sensitive keyboard is disclosed. In one embodiment, a touch sensitive keyboard is provided that has a touchpad area separate from the keyboard keys. The keyboard is configured to disabled touchpad sensitivity when certain touch signals are received. In another embodiment, a touch sensitive keyboard is used as a controller. In a controller mode, keys on a touch sensitive keyboard are adapted to output a signal strength corresponding to a distance between the key and a finger operating as a control. In an embodiment, a touch sensitive keyboard includes a processor adapted to output a keystroke in response to one of the plurality of touch sensitive keys being pressed, and to output one or more touch points determined by interpolating signal strength for each of the plurality of touch sensitive keys on the keyboard.
