Abstract: An electronic device such as a portable computer may have a housing with a rectangular recess in which layers of display structures such as a light guide panel layer and other light guide structures are directly mounted without intervening chassis members. Mating alignment features in the housing and display structures may be used to align the display structures relative to the housing. A display may be formed from glass layers such as a color filter glass layer and a thin-film transistor glass layer. Backlight for the display may be generated by an array of light-emitting diodes. The light guide panel may direct light from the light-emitting diodes through the glass layers. A clamp may be used to hold the light-emitting diodes and light guide structures in place in the recess. An undercut in the housing may also hold the light guide structures in place.

Abstract: An input device is disclosed. The input device includes a movable touch-sensitive track pad capable of detecting an object in close proximity thereto so as to generate a tracking control signal. The input device also includes a movement indicator capable of detecting the movements of the movable track pad so as to generate one or more other control signals (e.g., button signals). The control signals can be used to perform actions in an electronic device operatively coupled to the input device.

Abstract: Electronic devices may use touch pads that have touch sensor arrays, force sensors, and actuators for providing tactile feedback. A touch pad may be mounted in a computer housing. The touch pad may have a rectangular planar touch pad member that has a glass layer covered with ink and contains a capacitive touch sensor array. Force sensors may be mounted under each of the four corners of the rectangular planar touch pad member. The force sensors may be used to measure how much force is applied to the surface of the planar touch pad member by a user. Processed force sensor signals may indicate the presence of button activity such as press and release events. In response to detected button activity or other activity in the device, actuator drive signals may be generated for controlling the actuator. The user may supply settings to adjust signal processing and tactile feedback parameters.

Abstract: Eine elektronische Vorrichtung 10 kann mit einer organischen Leuchtdiodenanzeige 14 mit minimierten Rahmenregionen IA bereitgestellt werden. Die Rahmenregionen IA können minimiert werden, indem die Anzeige mit gebogenen Kantenteilen 56 bereitgestellt wird, die neutrale Ebenen-Anpassungsmerkmale 58 aufweisen, die ein Biegen der gebogenen Kantenteile vereinfachen, während gleichzeitig eine Beschädigung der gebogenen Kantenteile minimiert wird. Die neutralen Ebenen-Anpassungsmerkmale können eine modifizierte Rückfilmschicht 52 der Anzeige beinhalten, bei welcher Teile der Rückfilmschicht in einer Biegeregion entfernt werden. Eine Anzeigevorrichtung kann ein Substrat, ein Anzeigefeld auf dem Substrat aufweisend Anzeigepixel und periphere Schaltungen, benachbart zum Anzeigefeld und eingerichtet zum Betreiben der Anzeigepixel, aufweisen. Ein Teil der Peripherie des Substrats kann im Wesentlichen orthogonal zum Anzeigefeld gebogen werden, um einen ersichtlichen Oberflächenbereich der Anzeigevorrichtung zu verringern. Der gebogene Teil kann eine Elektrode zur Kommunikation mit den peripheren Schaltungen beinhalten.
