A touch device includes a touch pad and a base having an accommodating region and at least one first conductor. The touch pad is received in the accommodating region and subjected to a force to generate a changeable position relative to the base. The touch pad has a touch surface consisting of a plurality of capacitive sensors and at least one second conductor connected with at least one of the capacitive sensors. The second conductor is electrically connected with the first conductor. Capacitances measured from the capacitive sensors are substantially different between the touch surface touched with a conductive object and the second conductor connected with the first conductor, which is connected to a fixed voltage, current or a ground. Therefore, a control unit connected to the capacitive sensors can generate different control signals from the connecting state between the first conductor and the second conductor.

An input device having a sensing region overlapping an input surface includes a first substrate, a second substrate physically coupled to the first substrate, and a sensor electrode disposed on the first substrate and configured to detect input objects in the sensing region. A first force sensor includes a first electrode disposed on the first substrate and a first conductive portion of the second substrate capacitively coupled with the first electrode. The first conductive portion is configured to move relative to the first electrode such that a first variable capacitance of the first force sensor changes in response to force applied to the input surface in a first direction parallel to the touch surface.

An information handling system input device coordinates presentation of keyboard augmentation panels proximate a keyboard resting on a horizontally-disposed touchscreen display. The keyboard augmentation panels relate keyboard and other inputs to an application active on the information handling system to enhance end user interactions. A keyboard augmentation module tracks the keyboard position on the touchscreen display to adapt content presentation in the keyboard augmentation panels based upon expected end user inputs. In other embodiments, other physical devices are augmented to have hybrid graphical interfaces that enhance multi-hand end user interactions.

A locating method for an optical touch system determines a center position of an indication object on a touch area of the optical touch system by an optical location means. The locating method determines a light-emitting position of a light emitter of the indication object on the touch area by receiving indication light emitted from the light emitter by two optical sensors. The locating method determines a touch position and a touch direction according to a relative relationship between the center position and the light-emitting position; therein, the touch position can be regarded as a touch point on the touch area by the indication object, and the touch direction can be regarded as a rotation angle of the indication object relative to the touch area.

A zoom lens system having a negative first lens group and a positive second lens group, from an object side, and achieving zooming by varying a group-to-group distance. The second lens group includes a three-element cemented lens which is a set of three lens elements cemented together including, from the object side, a negative first lens, a positive second lens, and a negative third lens, and the three-element cemented lens fulfills conditional formulas 0.08<(rs2+rs1) / (rs2−rs1)<0.5, 27<v2-v1<40, 20<v2-v3<38 (rs1, rs2 represent the curvature radius of the sides of cemented surfaces of the three-element cemented lens on the object side and the image side respectively, and v1-3 represent the Abbe numbers of the first to third lenses of the three-element cemented lens).

Embodiments can include means for categorizing lexical data, means for accurately describing the structure hierarchical data, means for accommodating lexicons having disparate data structures, means for pooling data from separate lexicons into aggregate lists, means for gathering data from participating users, and specified interfaces for handwriting recognition, optical character recognition, and text-to-speech and speech-to-text conversion. Embodiments can provide significant enhancements in data description, data connectivity and access, data presentation, data enhancement, and input functionality. The input means may be coupled with an electronic implementation of the character lookup invention by the same inventor to facilitate the lookup of individual characters. An exemplary embodiment can comprise a linguistic services center that interfaces with various natural language processing modules such that users of one module can take advantage of the wealth of linguistic information provided in the system. The resulting system may greatly minimize the frustration and inconvenience users typically experience when using Japanese, Chinese, or Korean in electronic contexts. A revenue sharing and data security system is disclosed for encouraging competitors to make their data available to the system in a way that lexical data providers, the OS provider, the LSC provider, and the user may all mutually benefit.

The invention provides a detection module and a detection method for the crimping position of a vehicle instrument pointer, and relates to the installation technology of the vehicle instrument pointer industry. According to the technical scheme of the invention, the problem in the prior art that due to the inaccurate measurement on the crimping depth of the pointer of a vehicle instrument, the vehicle instrument is easily damaged and low in production efficiency can be solved. The structurally limiting means and the artificially judging means are not adopted. When the overall curve of pressure signals is monitored, the characteristic key positions of the curve of pressure signals are judged through the built-in algorithm at the same time. When the crimping depth is within an abnormal range, an operator is notified first time of the abnormal change of the curve. The monitoring range and the condition can be freely set. The invention provides not only a display platform, but also an alerting tool. The above application brings actual benefits to enterprises and facilitates the research for researchers no matter in the industrial field or in the research field. In this way, instrument pointers, instrument panels and motors can be well protected, and the one-shot crimping success rate is improved. Therefore, the production efficiency is increased. The detection module and the detection method can be applied to the crimping operation on the pointers of vehicle instruments or other instruments.

The invention discloses a method for extending button key with single function to button key with multiple function through lamp number indicator. The button key as a device for functional input is cooperated with lamp number indicator of at least one indicator light so as to input each function in execution area in mode of divided phases: A press of pushing the button key represents different meanings. The operation includes following steps: (1) multifunctional state is activated by the button, (2) the indicator light displays state of first lamp number, (3) within a holdup time, pushing the button key to select the function in order to execute the function selected in this time. Thus, button key with single function is extended to button key with multiple functions. The invention can obtain more operational functions, and reduce number of button key in a device.
