Benefits of technology

[0018]As mentioned above, the visual interface system of the invention can be directly applied to the system containing matrix structure such as TFT LCD panel, OLED panel, LED panel, electrophoretic display panel, MEMS display panel, or the likes, thereby integrating display, touch input and data transmission functions together. Thus, the manufactured products can be lighter and thinner and the product cost can be decreased, thereby improving the product competitiveness. Moreover, the encoded signal is coupled to the external operation apparatus instead of being directly read by the matrix substrate, so that it is unnecessary to modify the layout on the matrix substrate. For example, regarding the touch input application, it is unnecessary to add the capacitance sensing components in the display panel for detecting the change of external capacitance values. As a result, the present invention can decrease the manufacturing cost and shrink the process time.

Problems solved by technology

However, due to the additional touch panel, this approach not only increases the weight and sized of the product, but also the cost.

Embodiment Construction

[0028]The present invention will be apparent from the following detailed description, which proceeds with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein the same references relate to the same elements.

[0029]FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a visual interface system 1 according to a first embodiment of the invention. The visual interface system 1 includes an operation apparatus 11 and a matrix display apparatus 12, which are coupled with each other. For example, the operation apparatus 11 is capacitive coupled to the matrix display apparatus 12 for transmitting signals, which is a non-contact signal transmission.

[0030]In this embodiment, the operation apparatus 11 is, for example, a stylus, an IC card, an NFC reading apparatus, or a user (especially the hand of a user). When the operation apparatus 11 is an electronic apparatus, it may include some functional circuits such as a process control circuit, a storage circuit or a transmission circuit. Herein, any circuit can be composed of h...

Abstract

A visual interface system includes an operation apparatus and a matrix display apparatus. The matrix display apparatus includes a display surface and a matrix substrate. The matrix substrate includes a substrate and a matrix which is disposed at one side of the substrate while the display surface is located at the other side of the substrate. When the operation apparatus is operated on the display surface, an encoded signal is coupled to the operation apparatus from the matrix substrate. The operation apparatus receives the encoded signal so as to generate a transmission signal.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a human-machine interface system and, in particular, to a visual interface system.[0003]Related Art[0004]Recently, touch panels have been widely applied to the commercial electronic products such as mobile phones, digital cameras, MP3, PDA, GPS, tablet PC, UMPC, and the likes. In these electronic products, the touch panel is bound with a screen to form a touch input display apparatus. A manufacturing method of a conventional touch input display apparatus is to dispose a touch panel on a display panel of a display module. However, due to the additional touch panel, this approach not only increases the weight and sized of the product, but also the cost.[0005]In order to broaden the applications of the commercial electronic products, some products have been added with the new function of near field communication (NFC), which can be used to replace the conventional IC card (e.g. door card, credi...
