A device includes: a sensor component; and a touch panel comprising: touch-registration circuitry; a mesh comprising conductors, wherein at least some of the conductors are routed to a junction; and a flex circuit coupled between the junction and the touch-registration circuitry, wherein the flex circuit is longer than a distance between the junction and the touch-registration circuitry to accommodate routing of the flex circuit past the sensor component.

An apparatus can comprise a display, a first plurality of electrodes, a second plurality of electrodes, a dummy electrode, and a processor. The processor can cause the apparatus to recognize a contact in response to receiving input on at least one of the first plurality of electrodes and at least one of the second plurality of electrodes and receiving no input on the dummy electrode, and ignore a contact in response to receiving input on the dummy electrode, at least one of the first plurality of electrodes, and at least one of the second plurality of electrodes.

Reducing false sensing of touchscreen inputs

An electronic device includes: an enclosure having a first surface, a second surface, and a side surface disposed between the first and second surfaces; an edge-to-edge component mounted in an edge-to-edge opening that extends across substantially an entire width of the side surface between the first surface and the second surface; and a brace disposed in the enclosure, the brace extending along the edge-to-edge opening.

Disclosed is a system for a variable animal interaction device including an animal interaction device; a shell at least partially embedded into the animal interaction device; a component that is substantially encapsulated within the shell, wherein the shell is a barrier between the animal and the component; a detection device that detects a change in the shell; a deterrent device that has at least an on and an off state wherein the on state substantially changes the animal interaction device to substantially deter further interaction between the animal and the animal interaction device; wherein the deterrent device is actuated into the on state when the detection device detects a change in the shell.

A touchscreen display device may include a capacitive sensor disposed adjacent to a top surface of the display device, and a resistive sensor disposed below the capacitive sensor. A backlight may selectively illuminate a pattern on an inner side of the top surface of the display device, so that the pattern is visible from outside the display device when the backlight is activated, and is not visible when the back light is not activated.

Device having multi-layered touch sensitive surface

Disclosed is a device for the transport of temperature sensitive products including an insulated container, an insulated lid, a fastener to secure the lid to the container, an active heat exchanger, a thermal circuit to circulate heat exchange, a temperature sensor read by a temperature regulating circuit that maintains a temperature range, a power source, and a support frame that arranges the elements of the device with the overall center of mass at a location adapted for transport and storage of the device. Disclosed is also a method of transport for temperature sensitive products including securing the temperature sensitive product within an insulated container with a lid, removing heat from the container to maintain a temperature range, strapping the device onto the user's back and adjusting to the shape of the user, freeing both hands during transport of the device, and minimizing hindrances to user mobility caused by the device.
