Abstract
An optical touch apparatus including two touch panels, two optical sensing modules, and a rail device is provided. Each touch panel has two lateral sides separated from each other and a touch zone located between the two lateral sides. Each optical sensing module is disposed or near one lateral side of one of the touch panels. The rail device is coupled to the two touch panels, such that two touch panels can slide in parallel along a predetermined direction and can be selectively operated in one of a first touching mode and a second touching mode, and the optical touch apparatus can flexibly change its size of touch zone.
