Abstract: A device configured to determine the location and magnitude of a touch on a surface of the device. The device includes a transparent touch sensor that is configured to detect a location of a touch on the transparent touch sensor. The 5 device also includes a force-sensing structure disposed at the periphery of the transparent touch sensor. The force sensor includes an upper capacitive plate and a compressible element disposed on one side of the upper capacitive plate. The force sensor also includes a lower capacitive plate disposed on a side of the compressible element that is opposite the upper capacitive plate. 106 104--- Zt 7- o 300-, 20230 SLC~IION 2-2

Abstract: Embodiments described herein may take the form of an electromagnetic actuator that produces a haptic output during operation. Generally, an electromagnetic coil is wrapped around a central magnet array. A shaft passes through the central magnet array, such that the central array may move along the shaft when the proper force is applied. When a current passes through the electromagnetic coil, the coil generates a magnetic field. The coil is stationary with respect to a housing of the actuator, while the central magnet array may move along the shaft within the housing. Thus, excitation of the coil exerts a force on the central magnet array, which moves in response to that force. The direction of the current through the coil determines the direction of the magnetic field and thus the motion of the central magnet array.

Abstract: Hier beschriebene Ausführungsformen können die Form eines elektromagnetischen Aktuators annehmen, der während des Betriebs eine haptische Ausgabe erzeugt. Allgemein gesprochen wird eine elektromagnetische Spule um eine zentrale Magnetanordnung gewickelt. Ein Schaft verläuft durch die zentrale Magnetanordnung, sodass sich die zentrale Magnetanordnung längs des Schaftes bewegen kann, wenn eine geeignete Kraft angewandt wird. Wenn ein Strom durch die elektromagnetische Spule fließt, erzeugt die Spule ein Magnetfeld. Die Spule ist stationär bezüglich eines Gehäuses des Aktuators, während die zentrale Magnetanordnung sich längs des Schaftes innerhalb des Gehäuses bewegen kann. Die Erregung der Spule übt daher eine Kraft auf die zentrale Magnetanordnung aus, die sich als Reaktion auf diese Kraft bewegt. Die Richtung des Stromes durch die Spule bestimmt die Richtung des Magnetfelds und damit die Bewegung der zentralen Magnetanordnung.
