Definitions
- the detector is operable as an impact detector on an industrial door.
- Figure 7 shows a sectional view of a touch screen comprising 4 detectors located at each corner of the screen.
- the microcontroller may be dedicated to the touch detector system described here but alternatively may also carry out other functions associated with other parts of the host system such as display or motor control.
- Figure 3 shows an electrical output being provided to the host system. Preferably this is a serial data stream, for example I 2 C, but alternatively may be an analogue output such as 0-5V or 4...20 mA.
- the electronic circuit may be augmented with an audio signal output. An audible 'click' may be generated when, for example, a detector senses a user's touch.
- This audio feedback helps compensate for the lack of tactile feedback normally associated with a traditional electro-mechanical push-button but has the advantage of being programmable to a tone, volume and type ('click', 'clack', 'tic', 'toe', 'beep' or speech of whatever language etc.) required by the specific application.
