Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing touch glass systems are prone to damage from direct user interaction, leading to failure of display and touch functions, and provide limited interaction options.
Innovation Solution
A touch laminated glass design with a display film and touch film sandwiched between two glass panels, protected by adhesive layers, allowing capacitive touch operations and integrated projection capabilities, enhancing user interaction and protection.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If display film and touch film are directly disposed on the outside of the glass, then the glass can provide touch display function, but the display film and touch film are prone to scratch and damage
Solution Approach 1:
The display film and touch film are nested between two glass panels (first glass and second glass), forming a laminated structure. This nesting approach protects the films from direct exposure to external environment and user interaction, preventing scratches and damage while maintaining the touch display functionality.
Solution Approach 2:
The invention creates a composite structure by combining glass panels with display film and touch film in a laminated configuration. This composite material approach integrates the protective properties of glass with the functional properties of the films, achieving both protection and functionality.
2Ease of operation
If touch buttons are integrated on the glass, then the glass provides touch operation function, but the user experience is poor due to limited interaction options
Solution Approach 1:
The touch film enables the entire glass surface to function as a touch interface, replacing limited touch buttons with a full-area interactive surface. This multi-functional approach allows various touch operations (tap, swipe, pinch) across the whole display area, significantly enhancing user experience and interaction options.
3Reliability
If display film and touch film are protected between glass panels, then the integrity of films is protected, but the structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The invention merges multiple components (first glass, display film, touch film, second glass) into a single integrated laminated glass unit. This combining approach, while adding layers, creates a unified structure that is manufactured and installed as one component, managing complexity through integration rather than separate assemblies.
