近年來,隨著技術的進步,觸控模組的用途已越來越廣,從常見的提款機、智慧型手機、平板電腦、到工業用的觸控電腦等等。然,目前市場上主流的觸控模組多為直板型,另有少數觸控模組的曲面為僅邊緣具有一定曲率的2.5D結構,擁有大曲率曲面(如球形曲面或橢球形曲面)的觸控模組較為少見。In recent years, with the advancement of technology, the use of touch modules has become wider and wider, from common cash dispensers, smart phones, tablet computers, to industrial touch computers and so on. However, the current mainstream touch modules on the market are mostly straight type, and the surface of a few touch modules is a 2.5D structure with only a certain curvature on the edge, and has a large curvature surface (such as a spherical surface or an ellipsoidal surface) Touch modules are relatively rare.
習知技術中,對於大曲率曲面的觸控模組的記載較少,涉及其具體結構、製作方法的技術還有待完善。具體地,球形曲面的預期應用範圍廣泛,且球形曲面的應用場景與傳統的直板型存在一定差異,設計一種應用廣泛、製作方便且成本低廉的球形觸控裝置是本領域技術人員需要解決的技術問題。In the conventional technology, there are few records about the touch module with a large curvature surface, and the technology related to its specific structure and manufacturing method needs to be improved. Specifically, the expected application range of the spherical curved surface is wide, and the application scenarios of the spherical curved surface are different from the traditional straight type. Designing a spherical touch device with wide application, convenient manufacture and low cost is a technology that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art problem.
