At least one of the electricity manipulating devices is a pressure-sensitive variable-conductance sensor for creating an analog electrical output proportional to varying physical pressure applied to at least one depressible surface. Disclosed are controllers and methods of manufacture of controllers having at least one pressure-sensitive analog sensor of deformable material with an apex surface which variably flattens-out under variable pressure against at least one conductive trace surface to increase surface contact and vary conductivity.

    Abstract: A positioning system for controlling the orientation of the movable elongated inner member relative to the fixed elongated outer member of a surgical instrument. An endoscopic rotatable shaver instrument incorporates a shaver blade assembly adapted to be received in and driven by a handpiece. The movable component of the shaver blade assembly is provided with a position indicator which is read by a sensor in the handpiece in order to control the position at which the inner member is stopped relative to the outer member. The invention is embodied in an apparatus and method enabling use of a shaver blade assembly as an aspirating device or as a probe without any aspirating function.

    Abstract: An adaptive keypad which has one or more keys includes, for each key, a pressure transducer positioned below a semi-rigid faceplate where the pressure transducer has a resistance which decreases as the pressure compressing the transducer increases. The transducer is connected in series with a capacitor to define an RC circuit for each key. Each RC circuit has a charge time proportional to the pressure applied to the key. A time capture circuit initially and thereafter intermittently, obtains the charge time for each RC circuit for each key and computes a conductance value from that time. The initial conductance value is stored in a memory. A comparing circuit intermittently compares the initial conductance value with each subsequent conductance value generated for a key. If the comparison value generated is greater than a predefined amount, a signal is generated indicating that a key has been depressed. If the comparison value is greater than a predefined amount over a selected period of time indicating a key is permanently depressed, the initial conductance stored in the memory for that key will be modified to a new value against which subsequent comparisons will be made to determine if a key is depressed.

One or more first switch contacts are deposited on the first base member and one or more facing second switch contacts are deposited on the second base member to define one or more on/off switches. At least one of the first switch contacts includes a first conductive pad and a first pressure sensitive layer applied over the first conductor pad so that a surface junction is formed between the first and second switch contacts where the surface junction is electrically nonconductive when the first contact noncompressively touches the facing second contact and is electrically conductive when the first contact compressively touches the facing second contact.
