Problems solved by technology

[0007] Traditional approaches are space consuming, inflexible and expensive, placing constraints on designers and manufacturers trying to produce state-of-the-art end products
Improvements in functional components and materials have made it possible to design advanced device and interface concepts, but previous solutions for implementing functions related to these components have generally performed poorly in terms of integration and sometimes functionality

Abstract

Electronic device 100 comprising a housing, or a 'cover', the housing material molded into a desired target shape and to at least partially embed a plurality of functional elements 102 and an enabling arrangement, optionally at least partially embedded in said housing, said enabling arrangement comprising: a first connector with a first plurality of connecting means 104 to establish a connection between the plurality of functional elements 102 and said enabling arrangement, a second connector with one or more second connecting means 112 to be connected to a host device 114 utilizing the functionalities associated with said functional elements 102, a memory for storing and retrieval of instructions, and processing means capable of transforming signals from a one known format to another predetermined format according to stored instructions. A corresponding method is presented.

Description

technical field [0001] Generally, the present invention relates to electronic devices and related components. In particular, but not exclusively, the invention relates to electronic equipment having integrated functional components and enabling means for practicably providing the electronic equipment with functionality associated with said functional components. Background technique [0002] In the user interface (UI) of electronic devices such as computers, which includes desktop, laptop and PDA devices, the use of simple switches, buttons and knobs has been replaced by keyboards, keypads, mouse controllers, speech recognition input devices, touch displays, and associated UI devices such as touchpads. [0003] In particular, touch surfaces such as touchpads and touchscreens have undoubtedly become the "de facto" UI of modern smartphones, tablets, and also the secondary UI of many desktop computers. In general, touch displays are adaptable to several different technologies...
