An automobile vehicle information system includes a touchscreen having a touchscreen capacitive sensing grid. The touchscreen displays graphics and detects touch events using the touchscreen capacitive sensing grid. A virtual touchscreen and display device is in communication with and receives the touch events detected by the touchscreen via a first digital communication link. The virtual touchscreen and display device generates graphics and maps touch coordinates to intended functions. A location of a failed virtual switch is mapped by the virtual touchscreen and display device based on screen coordinates provided by the touchscreen, the virtual touchscreen and display device generating a switch failure signal identifying the failed virtual switch. A control unit diagnoses the switch failure signal and generates a default action according to a virtual switch type.

One or more examples of the present disclosure relate generally to systems and methods for canceling mutual capacitive effects in a capacitance measurement. Some examples relate to providing a driven shield during capacitance measurement. Some examples relate to providing such a driven shield using rail-to-rail voltage.

Examples disclosed herein involve calibrating an input device to a display using the input device. An example method includes determining first coordinates of a position-encoded film corresponding to a location of an input device relative to the position-encoded film of a display of a computing device based on first position points of the position-encoded film, determining second coordinates of a pixel array corresponding to the location of the input device relative to the pixel array of the display based on a first reference pixel of the display, measuring a first offset between the first coordinates of the position-encoded film and the second coordinates of the pixel array, and calculating a calibration transformation to control the computing device based on the first offset.

An information reception device is provided with: operation surface which is adjusted to produce a characteristic index vibration by an object contact; a storage device stores candidate information (candidate information is related with the index vibration) which serves as a candidate of input information; a microphone which acquires observation information according to observation of the actual vibration arising in the surrounding environment; and a CPU. The CPU (selecting part) judges whether or not the index vibration exists in the observation information acquired. When the CPU judges that the index vibration exists, the CPU selects the candidate information which is related with the index vibration as the input information.

A hover touch compensation system and method may detect and track a hover position of a pointing/selecting device, such as a user's finger, relative to an input surface of a user interface, and may detect a point at which the pointing/selecting device initiates a movement toward the input surface of the user interface. The system may identify an intended contact point on the user interface based on the hover position of the pointing/selecting device relative to the input surface of the user interface at the point at which the movement toward the user interface is detected.

An electrostatic capacitance-type input device in which input position detecting electrodes are disposed in an input area of a substrate, includes a lower layer-side conductive film, an interlayer insulating film, and an upper layer-side conductive film, which are stacked on the substrate in order from the substrate side.

A relay electrode overlaps with the first input position detecting electrode in the intersection portion to be electrically connected to the discontinued portion of the second input position detecting electrode. An input area shield electrode that overlaps with the first and second input position detecting electrodes are formed by a second conductive film out of the lower and upper layer-side conductive films.
