Even the most famous Smartphone equipped with 2D multi-touch sensor cannot overwhelm non-conductive gloves. Innolux's world's first in cell force touch, DST (Deep Sensing Technology), adopted unique electrode design to realize 3D multi-press touch and combine the advantages of capacitive touch and resistive touch. Surgeon and high voltage electrical maintenance engineer could work on touch screen with sensibility outperformed 2D touch without taking off their sterile or insulated gloves. DST was awarded Innovative Product Award of Hsinchu Science Park. Mr. Jeffrey Yang, Vice President & General Manager of Mobile Product of Innolux represented the company to receive the honor in today (Dec. 13) ceremony at the 37th annual meeting of Hsinchu Science Park.
Dr. Chiu-Lien Yang, General Director of Technology Development of Innolux said DST turned the page on human-Smartphone interaction. DST was at the moment the most cutting-edge technology and compatible with insulated capacitor. Innolux would introduce DST into LCD TID to make the product lighter and thinner. The five-level sensibility was the best choice of in cell force touch sensor ever.
Innolux made fast and significant touch technology upgrade in 2012 and 2015 to release TOD (touch on display) and TID (touch in display) which was well received by the market, said Dr. Yang. The world's first [3D in cell touch] DST featured three characteristics:
1. Multi 3D touch: Support multi 3D touch with different depth. Musician could compose music with the audio software on tablet. DST could break the traditional single-press constraint.
2. Multi level 3D touch: The unique electrode design of DST could detect the capacitance difference, touch point and depth instead of duration to upgrade the accuracy and efficiency. For example, in car-racing game panel, user has to repeatedly press the screen button to speed up and overtake the rivals in traditional panel. With Innolux's DST which offered multi level 3D touch, user could manage the speed with the depth of pressing and enhance the pleasure of driving.
3. Non-conductive touch: Based on the high accuracy of traditional capacitive touch, DST further overcame the limit with compatibility with insulated material. Even rubber could draw on DST panel with high sensibility.
Dr. Yang expected DST could be applicable to the 13 panel applications very soon. Other than personal mobile device, medical and industrial applications would be the new foci.
DST in cell force touch could replace traditional OGS touch in a short time with Innolux's one-stop manufacturing model. With the timely product development and manufacture, high yield rate and material reduction (note: 15% module weight and 44% thickness reduction), and lower transportation cost, the product became lighter, thinner, more eco-friendly and cost-efficient. Small and medium size product would be the pilot market for DST. The technology would be combined with LCD technology to apply on the fields of consumer products, automobile, avionics, IT and special applications.
