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.

Abstract: An electronic device with a display and a fingerprint sensor displays, on the display, a first user interface. While displaying the first user interface on the display, the device detects movement of a fingerprint on the fingerprint sensor. In response to detecting movement of the fingerprint on the fingerprint sensor: in accordance with a determination that the movement of the fingerprint is in a first direction, the device navigates through the first user interface; and in accordance with a determination that the movement of the fingerprint is in a second direction different from the first direction, the device displays a second user interface different from the first user interface on the display.

Abstract: Displays such as organic light-emitting diode displays may be provided with touch sensing capabilities. A touch sensor (14) may be formed from electrodes (44) located on a thin-film encapsulation layer (84) or one or more sides of a polarizer. A single-sided or double-sided touch sensor panel may be attached to the upper or lower surface of a polarizer. Control circuitry (36) may be used to provide control signals to light-emitting diodes (50) in the display using a grid of control lines. The control lines and transparent electrode structures such as indium tin oxide structures formed on a thin-film encapsulation layer (84) or polarizer may be used as electrodes for a touch sensor. Displays (14) may have active regions (A) and inactive peripheral portions (IR). The displays (14) may have edge portions that are bent along a bend axis (122) that is within the active region (A) to form a borderless display. Virtual buttons (VB) may be formed on the bent edge portions.

Abstract: Devices, methods and graphical user interfaces for manipulating user interfaces based on fingerprint sensor inputs are provided. While a display of an electronic device with a fingerprint sensor displays a first user interface, the device may detect movement of a fingerprint on the fingerprint sensor. In accordance with a determination that the movement of the fingerprint is in a first direction, the device allows navigating through the first user interface, and in accordance with a determination that the movement of the fingerprint is in a second direction different from the first direction, the device allows displaying a second user interface different from the first user interface on the display.

Abstract: A capacitive fingerprint sensor that may be formed of an array of sensing elements. Each capacitive sensing element of the array may register a voltage that varies with the capacitance of a capacitive coupling. A finger may capacitively couple to the individual capacitive sensing elements of the sensor, such that the sensor may sense a capacitance between each capacitive sensing element and the flesh of the fingerprint. The capacitance signal may be detected by sensing the change in voltage on the capacitive sensing element as the relative voltage between the finger and the sensing chip is changed. Alternately, the capacitance signal may be detected by sensing the change in charge received by the capacitive sensing elements as the relative voltage between the finger and the sensing chip is changed.
