Abstract
A process and device for providing and fixing a captor of activation detection. The present invention discloses a tactile designation device for continuous capacitance detection comprising a glass plate covered by a metallic deposit on its entire surface and supported by flexible strips, means of supply of the metallized surface, and strain gauges mounted on top of the strips in order to measure their flexing. According to the present invention, the strips support the plate from a printed circuit of assembly. Each strip comprises at least one conducting part in contact, at one of its ends, with a supply track formed by the printed circuit, and at its other end, with the attachment devices of the plate on the strip that is electrically conducting and in contact with the metallized surface.
