Title: Asuka Koike and Magnetic-Sensor Input Device Innovation.
Introduction
Asuka Koike is an inventor associated with Miyagi, Japan, and Alps Alpine Co., Ltd. Her patent work includes an input device designed to detect both rotation and push operations using a magnetic sensor.
Latest Patents
Koike is named on 1 patent: “Input Device Configured to Determine Rotation Operation and Push Operation Using Magnetic Sensor.” The invention describes an operation knob that rotates and pushes, moving a magnet in response to each action. A magnetic sensor detects the magnet’s field, and circuitry uses the sensor’s readings to determine which operation occurred. The magnet’s orientation and movement are arranged to support detection of both inputs.
Career Highlights
Koike’s listed patent reflects work on input-device technology that combines multiple control actions with magnetic sensing. The available information associates her with Alps Alpine Co., Ltd.
Collaborations
Yasuhiro Ishizawa and Takashi Sato are identified as Koike’s coworkers. The provided information does not specify their roles in the patent.
Conclusion
Asuka Koike’s patent describes a magnetic-sensor input device that distinguishes rotation from pushing, highlighting her contribution to practical control-interface innovation.
