An optical navigation system with optical imaging of multiple inputs using a single navigation sensor. The optical navigation system includes a tactile interface device, an image sensor, and a processor. The tactile interface device facilitates a navigation input. The image sensor intermittently generates images of a surface of the tactile interface device and images of a contact navigation surface. The image sensor also generates the images of the surface of the tactile interface device exclusive of the images of the contact navigation surface. The processor is coupled to the image sensor. The processor generates a first navigation signal based on the images of the tactile interface device and generates a second navigation signal based on the images of the contact navigation surface.

Multiple input optical navigation system

A method and apparatus is described for a light-emitting diode with high light output. A polymeric cup to reflect light holds a light-emitting diode chip connected to surface-mounting leads and is filled with an optically clear filter. The use of a polymeric cup allows for better bonding between the cup and the filler.

SMT LED with high light output for high power applications

An optical navigation system having an illuminator housing and a sensor housing that are movably connected at a connection point with a connection mechanism, which may include a pivot. The illuminator housing and the sensor housing may be rotated about the connection point relative to each other so that the optical navigation system may be configured with a desired operating Z-height. The optical navigation system may also include a locking mechanism to lock the illuminator housing and the sensor housing in a predetermined fixed position after the desired operating Z-height has been selected.

An optical navigation sensor apparatus for an optical mouse includes an optical navigation sensor having an electronic chip, an aperture plate and an imaging lens integrated into a single package. The imaging lens includes a lens housing surrounding the aperture and providing a barrier to the entry of foreign matter into the aperture. In one form, the optical navigation sensor also includes a light emitting diode (LED) for illuminating a small area of a surface under the sensor and generating a reflected image that is detected by the electronic chip. In a sensor having an integral LED, an integral collimating lens is included for receiving light from the LED and focusing the light from the LED on the surface to be illuminated. The collimating lens is incorporated into a lens housing surrounding the LED and protecting the LED from exposure to foreign material.

A lead frame includes pins for a plurality of parts. The pins for the plurality of the parts include first pins for a first part and first pins for a second part. The first pins for the first part include first shaped pins and second shaped pins. Each of the first shaped pins has a wide area of a first length, and a narrow area. Each of the second shaped pins has a wide area of a second length and a narrow area. The first length and the second length are not equal. The first pins for the first part are interdigitated with the first pins for the second part.
