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: Dispositivos electrónicos pueden utilizar paneles sensibles al tacto que tienen arreglos de sensores táctiles, sensores de fuerza, y activadores para proporcionar retroalimentación táctil. Un panel sensible al tacto puede montarse en un alojamiento de computadora. El panel sensible al tacto puede tener un miembro de panel sensible al tacto plano rectangular que tiene una capa de vidrio cubierta con tinta y contiene un arreglo de sensores táctiles capacitivos. Pueden montarse sensores de fuerza bajo cada una de las cuatro esquinas del miembro de panel sensible al tacto plano rectangular. Los sensores de fuerza pueden utilizarse para medir qué tanta fuerza se aplica a la superficie del miembro de panel sensible al tacto plano por un usuario. Las señales procesadas de sensores de fuerza pueden indicar la presencia de actividad de botones tales como eventos de presión y liberación. En respuesta a la actividad de botones detectada u otra actividad en el dispositivo, pueden generarse señales de conducción de activador para controlar el activador. El usuario puede suministrar parámetros para ajustar los parámetros de procesamiento de señales y retroalimentación táctil.
