A touch sensor includes a resistive layer on a substrate and electrodes on the resistive layer. The electrodes and portions of the resistive layer between the electrodes form series resistor chains disposed at peripheral regions of the touch sensor and surrounding a touch region of the touch sensor. The electrodes are formed by forming a conductive layer on the resistive layer in a thin-film deposition process, followed by patterning the conductive layer into the electrodes. A sheet resistivity of the resistive layer is between about 200Ω and about 800Ω. A sheet resistivity of the conductive layer is between about 0.03Ω and about 0.2Ω. A ratio of the sheet resistivity of the resistive layer to the sheet resistivity of the conductive layer is between about 2,500 and about 10,000.

A limb rehabilitation and training system includes a horizontal position adjuster movably mounted at a bottom side of a base, an expansion rotary member mounted at the horizontal position adjuster, a shoulder joint traction mechanism linked to the expansion rotary member through a first arm segment robotic arm and a height adjuster, and an upper-limb rehabilitation device linked to the shoulder joint traction mechanism. The upper-limb rehabilitation device is able to rapidly be adjusted to fit the left arm or right arm through the horizontal position adjuster, the expansion rotary member, the first arm segment robotic arm and a shoulder positioning-lifting rotary member and. Further, by means of the shoulder joint traction mechanism, the user's stiffened shoulder joint can be timely moved for a separation distance, achieving the function of loosening the joint and facilitating performance of successive rehabilitation treatment or training.

Limb rehabilitation and training system

A rehabilitation and training apparatus is built based on the empirical law by introducing physical therapists' experiences into the apparatus to simulate therapy with hands in the course of rehabilitation. The apparatus includes a multi-axis robotic arm having first to eighth arm segments, and a high-precision control system for controlling movements of the multi-axis robotic arm. The control system provides an active, a passive and an auxiliary mode; receives and computes information about a patient's movements and muscle force detected by potentiometers and force sensors provided in the multi-axis robotic arm; and accordingly, drives actuators to apply an aiding force or a resisting force to assist the patient in completing rehabilitation exercises. The apparatus also includes a humanized operating interface, via which a doctor or a physical therapist may obtain related rehabilitation data for assessment and adjustment of rehabilitation therapeutic courses. A method of controlling the apparatus is introduced.

Configurations of patterns on a touch panel and methods thereof are proposed. The proposed pattern uses a design unparallel to either one of the X axis and the Y axis of a black matrix of a pixel layout of an LCD panel to resolve the Moir&#xe9; Phenomenon resulting from the interference between the touch panel and the pixel layout.

Touch panel design and method thereof

A touch electrode device includes first electrode lines and second electrode lines formed on a transparent substrate. An insulating block is disposed at a junction between a first conductive connecting portion of the first electrode line and a second conductive connecting portion of the second electrode line. At least one insulating line is extended from the insulating block and disposed along the first electrode line.
