It is understood that in the embodiment, the optical film is coated on the back surface of the glass substrate 20 by coating, so that the glass substrate 20 has the function of reflecting light, i.e. has the function of a mirror. In the embodiment, a light-transmitting area is arranged on the optical film plated on the back surface of the glass substrate 20, and the touch key 1 is arranged on the back surface of the glass substrate 20 corresponding to the light-transmitting area. The sensing range triggered by the touch key 1 needs to be set to be smaller than the range of the light-transmitting area, and the sensing range of the touch key 1 can also be considered not to exceed the edge of the light-transmitting area. This ensures that even if a conventional mirror is one in which an optical film is plated on the back surface, the touch key 1 can be effectively used to control an illumination lamp or other electronic device of the mirror. The problem of touch button 1 can only use on the nonmetal mirror surface glass 2 of leading coating film usually is solved for the silver mirror of ordinary back plating optical film can use touch button 1's purpose, and silver mirror formation of image is more true and clear simultaneously, promotes user's user experience.

In practical use, a metal optical film is first coated on the back surface of a glass substrate by a coating technique to have a mirror function, such as a common silver mirror.

And processing a light-transmitting area on the optical coating on the back surface of the glass substrate 20 through the mirror after coating and through laser etching or other processes. The light-transmitting area comprises a circular area, a rectangle or other figures, wherein the area which is formed by the edges of the light-transmitting area and can transmit light is larger than or equal to the area which meets the finger operation, and the condition that the touch key 1 cannot be triggered when the finger touches the touch key is prevented.

Referring to fig. 4, in a further embodiment, the mirror glass 2 further includes a shielding layer, and the shielding layer covers the film coating layer at a position corresponding to the light-transmitting area.

It can be understood that the mirror glass 2 is provided with a shielding layer at a position corresponding to the light-transmitting area on the back surface of the glass substrate 20, and the shielding layer is used for shielding the light-transmitting area, so that a user cannot directly see the touch key 1 on the back surface through the light-transmitting area. Meanwhile, the color of the shielding layer can be changed according to the actual use requirement, and the shielding layer is made of a material which can transmit a certain amount of light.

The shielding layer may be formed by covering the light-transmitting area with ink by silk-screen printing, where the ink includes water-based ink, oil-based ink, emulsion-type ink, or the like, and the ink may change color by adding pigment, for example, the ink is set to be white, red, or green, or the like.

When the fingers of the human body approach the induction disc of the substrate, the size of the capacitor can be changed due to the conductivity of the human body, and the touch processing chip outputs an instruction signal after detecting the large-amplitude change of the capacitance value. Through a sensing disc on the human body touch substrate, the touch chip integrated circuit detects the change of the capacitance value, sends an instruction to the negative electrode of the light-emitting element of the corresponding channel to be at a low level, so that the light-emitting element (indicator lamp) of the light-emitting element is lightened, and simultaneously sends a signal to the analog switch module to control the analog switch module to carry out communication action on the corresponding channel, so that the corresponding channel is communicated with the ground, and the communication function is realized; when the contact between a finger and the induction disc is released, the capacitance value is recovered, the touch chip integrated circuit detects the change of the capacitance value, sends an instruction to the negative electrode of the light-emitting element of the corresponding channel to be at a high level, so that the light-emitting element (indicator lamp) is not on, and simultaneously sends a signal to the analog switch module, so that the analog switch module is controlled to make a disconnection action for the corresponding channel, so that the corresponding channel is not communicated with the ground, and a disconnection function is realized; thus, the function of touch control on/off is basically realized.
