Hybrid Inertial And Touch Sensing Input Device

US Patent:
8300020, Oct 30, 2012
Filed:
Aug 15, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/192889
Inventors:
Farshid Moussavi - Oakland CA, US
Assignee:
Apple Inc. - Cupertino CA
International Classification:
G06F 3/041
US Classification:
345173
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for tracking coarse and fine motions associated with an electronic input device is disclosed. The electronic input device can have both an inertial sensor and a touch sensor. The method includes receiving inputs from an inertial sensor and a touch sensor, and dynamically adjusting a velocity estimate of the electronic input device based on weighting or predetermined thresholds of the inputs to maximize a tracking range of the input device.

Velocity Stabilization For Accelerometer Based Input Devices

US Patent:
2010002, Feb 4, 2010
Filed:
Jul 30, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/182799
Inventors:
Farshid MOUSSAVI - Oakland CA, US
Assignee:
Apple Inc. - Cupertino CA
International Classification:
G09G 5/00
US Classification:
345156
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for reducing or eliminating tracking errors associated with accelerometer-based input devices. The method and apparatus calculates a velocity of the input device; determines if the calculated velocity indicates a motion tracking error; and ignores the calculated velocity if the motion tracking error is indicated.

Methods And Apparatus For Incremental Prediction Of Input Device Motion

US Patent:
2010006, Mar 11, 2010
Filed:
Sep 9, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/207452
Inventors:
Farshid MOUSSAVI - Oakland CA, US
Assignee:
Apple Inc. - Cupertino CA
International Classification:
G06F 3/033, G05G 5/08, G06F 15/00
US Classification:
345158, 702141
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for incremental prediction of input device motion. In one embodiment, the input device comprises one or more sensors adapted to output motional data of the input device as measured at a certain period. A prediction of input device motion is generated based upon the last prediction and a weighted error in estimate determined by the sensory output. According to one embodiment, the weight is calculated as a Kalman gain. In one embodiment, once the prediction has been generated, it is provided to a display update algorithm adapted to orient a navigational object upon an associated display screen.

Touch Device And Detection Method Thereof

US Patent:
2012031, Dec 6, 2012
Filed:
Dec 6, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/311561
Inventors:
FARSHID MOUSSAVI - Oakland CA, US
International Classification:
G06F 15/00
US Classification:
702150
Abstract:
A touch device includes a plurality of sensors, a storage module and a processing module. The sensors are placed on a substrate for detecting acoustic waves and generating electrical signals. The storage module stores a plurality of templates of delay measurement for a plurality of locations on the substrate. The processing module is coupled to the sensors and to the storage module for calculating a received delay measurement and comparing the received delay measurement to the plurality of templates of delay measurement to estimate touch location. A detection method for the touch device is also provided.
