Abstract:
A flexible and non-functionalized low cost paper-based electronic system platform fabricated from common paper, such as paper based sensors, and methods of producing paper based sensors, and methods of sensing using the paper based sensors are provided. A method of producing a paper based sensor can include the steps of: a) providing a conventional paper product to serve as a substrate for the sensor or as an active material for the sensor or both, the paper product not further treated or functionalized; and b) applying a sensing element to the paper substrate, the sensing element selected from the group consisting of a conductive material, the conductive material providing contacts and interconnects, sensitive material film that exhibits sensitivity to pH levels, a compressible and/or porous material disposed between a pair of opposed conductive elements, or a combination of two of more said sensing elements. The method of sensing can further include measuring, using the sensing element, a change in resistance, a change in voltage, a change in current, a change in capacitance, or a combination of any two or more thereof.

Abstract:
A capacitive touch device is described. The device comprises a substrate (2) and a plurality of co-planar capacitive touch switches (21 1 , 21 2 , 21 3 , 21 4 , 21 5 , 21 6 ) and conductive tracks (24 1 , 24 2 , 24 3 , 24 4) connected to the capacitive touch switches disposed directly on a face of the substrate. The capacitive touch switches include first and second capacitive touch switches (21 3 , 21 4 ) which are adjacent, separated by a channel (31) and which are electrically isolated from each other. The capacitive touch switches include third and fourth capacitive touch switches (21 2 , 21 5 ) which are electrically isolated from the first and second capacitive touch switches, but which are electrically connected to each other by a conductive track (242) which runs through the channel.
Abstract:
La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif pour localiser une interaction sur une surface de grande taille permettant de la rendre tactile. Le procédé de l'invention est basé sur une modélisation des répartitions d'efforts entre des capteurs capacitifs répartis sur la surface et une estimation de la position la plus proche de l'interaction, par la recherche d'un coût minimum associé à la proximité des mesures capteurs avec des modèles établis.
Abstract:
A switch device includes a touch sensor (20) and a control unit (5). The touch sensor (20) includes first to third detecting regions (203, 204, 205). The control unit (5) increases light output of a lighting load when the touch sensor (20) detects an operation by a person on the first detecting region (203), decreases the light output of the lighting load when the touch sensor (20) detects an operation by a person on the third detecting region (205), and switch the state of the lighting load from the ON state to the OFF state when the touch sensor (20) detects an operation by a person on the second detecting region (204).
Abstract:
Une interface de commande (IC) équipe un système se déclinant selon au moins deux modèles offrant des ensembles différents de fonctions choisies parmi N fonctions. Cette interface de commande (IC) comprend un écran d'affichage (EA) de couleur foncée et comportant N zones sensitives (Z1-Z14) associées respectivement à N pictogrammes, eux-mêmes associés respectivement aux N fonctions, et propres chacune à permettre à un usager de commander la fonction associée, N moyens d'éclairage propres à éclairer respectivement les N pictogrammes, et des moyens de contrôle agencés pour ne faire fonctionner que des moyens d'éclairage qui sont associés aux pictogrammes associés soit à toutes les fonctions d'un ensemble offert par le système considéré, soit à des fonctions appartenant à un ensemble offert par le système considéré et concernant des zones prédéfinies du système considéré dans lesquelles sont présents des usagers.
