Abstract

The invention discloses an optical touch panel, a touch display device and a touch input method thereof. The optical touch panel comprises a substrate, a single surface light source generator, a retro-reflection element and a single optical sensing array, wherein the substrate is provided with a surface; the single surface light source generator is arranged outside the surface of the substrate and is used for generating a surface light source, wherein the radiation range of the surface light source covers the range of the surface of the substrate; the retro-reflection element is arranged at the side of the substrate and is used for reflecting the surface light source; and the single optical sensing array is arranged outside the surface of the substrate, is used for sensing the reflected surface light source and generates reflection light distribution information. The optical touch panel and the touch display device can fulfill a function of touch input by only needing to arrange the single surface light source generator and the single optical sensing array, and therefore, the manufacture cost and the process complexity of the optical touch panel can be dramatically lowered.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a touch display device with an optical touch panel and a touch input method thereof, especially to an optical touch panel using only a single surface light source generator and a single light sensing array and including the above-mentioned A touch display device of an optical touch panel and a touch input method thereof. Background technique [0002] In today's various types of consumer electronic products, portable electronic products such as tablet computers, personal digital assistants (PDAs), mobile phones (mobile phones) and satellite navigation systems (GPS) have widely used touch panels. , as a communication interface for man-machine data, thereby saving the volume of electronic products. [0003] Generally speaking, according to different touch input mechanisms, touch panels can be mainly divided into three categories: resistive touch panels, capacitive touch panels, and optical touch panels. The advantages of...
