Abstract

In traditional touch panels, electrodes are settled on or above the surface of displays, weakening the optical transmittance, hence resulting in high power consumption of the display for providing customers satisfied visual experience, giving rise to reduced battery's lifetime which brings users inconvenience. To address this issue, in this article, we propose a new sensor architecture, in which electrodes are settled only at the edge of the touch panel, ensuring a very high optical transmittance. The touch event detection relies on electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) technique, through which 2-dimensional location recognition is achieved, indicating the presented technique provides a feasible means to boost the optical transmittance of the touch panel layer.
