发明名称 Line spacing in mesh designs for touch sensors
摘要 In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a touch sensor that includes a mesh of conductive material configured to extend across a display that includes multiple pixels that each include sub-pixels. The mesh includes multiple first and second lines of conductive material. The first lines are substantially parallel to each other, and the second lines are substantially parallel to each other. Each of the pixels has a first pixel pitch (PPx) along a first axis and a second pixel pitch (PPy) along a second axis that is substantially perpendicular to the first axis. The first pixel pitch is a distance between corresponding features of two adjacent pixels along the first axis, and the second pixel pitch is a distance between corresponding features of two adjacent pixels along the second axis. The first lines extend across the display at a first angle relative to the first axis.

主权项 1. An apparatus that comprises: a touch sensor that comprises a mesh of conductive material configured to extend across a display that comprises a plurality of pixels that each comprise sub-pixels, wherein: the mesh comprises a plurality of first lines and a plurality of second lines of conductive material, wherein: the first lines are substantially parallel to each other;the second lines are substantially parallel to each other;each of the pixels has a first pixel pitch (PPx) along a first axis and a second pixel pitch (PPy) along a second axis that is substantially perpendicular to the first axis;the first pixel pitch is a distance between corresponding features of two adjacent pixels along the first axis; andthe second pixel pitch is a distance between corresponding features of two adjacent pixels along the second axis;the first lines are configured to extend across the display at a first angle relative to the first axis, wherein the first angle is within 1° of the arctangent of[3m×PPyPPx],  wherein m is equal to 1, 2, 4, or 5;the second lines are configured to extend across the display at a second angle relative to the first axis, wherein the second angle is within 1° of the arctangent of[3n×PPyPPx],  wherein n is equal to 1, 2, 4, or 5;first lines that are adjacent to each other are separated from each other along the first axis by a first-line horizontal separation distance that is within 1% of k×PPx, wherein k is a positive integer; andsecond lines that are adjacent to each other are separated from each other along the first axis by a second-line horizontal separation distance that is within 1% of1318×k×PPx;  and one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media coupled to the touch sensor and embodying logic that is configured when executed to control the touch sensor.
