An adaptive touch panel system and an adaptive method thereof are provided. The adaptive touch panel system includes a touch panel and an environment sensing device. The touch panel includes a touch sensor and a control device. The touch sensor senses a touch event and correspondingly outputs touch raw data. The control device includes a plurality of setting modes. The plurality of setting modes include a general setting mode and at least one special setting mode. The environment sensing device senses a current operating environment of the touch panel and generates at least one environmental physical parameter. The control device is configured to correspondingly select one of the plurality of setting modes according to the at least one environmental physical parameter, set the touch sensor according to the selected setting mode, and analyze the touch raw data to generate touch data.

Adaptive touch panel system and an adaptive method thereof adapted to environmental change

A touch panel including a substrate, a plurality of sensing electrodes, a bridge line, a connection line and an island insulator is provided. The sensing electrodes are disposed on the substrate in parallel. The bridge line is disposed on the substrate and connected between two of the sensing electrodes. The connection line is disposed on the substrate and connected between another two of the sensing electrodes. The bridge line intersects the connection line. The island insulator is disposed on the substrate and covers the bridge line. The bridge line is completely encapsulated between the island insulator and the substrate. The island insulator includes a central portion and a distal portion extended from the central portion. A width of the distal portion is gradually reduced outwardly from the central portion.

Touch panel having an island insulator

A multi-touch resistive touch panel includes a first conductive substrate, a second conductive substrate and a microcontroller. The first conductive substrate includes four input terminals at or around four corners of the first conductive substrate. The second conductive substrate is disposed in parallel with and spaced apart from the first conductive substrate, and includes a plurality of output terminals at or around an edge of the second conductive substrate. The microcontroller is electrically coupled to the four input terminals and the plurality of output terminals, provides a first input voltage to two adjacent input terminals of the four input terminals, and provides a second input voltage to the other two adjacent input terminals of the four input terminals. The microcontroller calculates a coordinate value corresponding to at least one touch point according to an output voltage outputted by at least one of the plurality of output terminals.
