TOUCH SENSOR TO RECOGNIZE GESTURE AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME

摘要

Disclosed herein is a touch sensor to recognize a gesture, including: a touch sensor including first electrode patterns and second electrode patterns which are formed on a base substrate in a direction intersection each other, a mode selection unit, a first switching circuit unit, a second switching circuit unit and a control unit detecting a switching operation of the first switching circuit unit and the second switching circuit unit and a change in mutual capacitance in the first electrode pattern group and the second electrode pattern group depending on an operation mode selection of the touch sensor.

1. A touch sensor to recognize a gesture, comprising:
a touch sensor including first electrode patterns and second electrode patterns which are formed on a base substrate in a direction intersecting each other; a mode selection unit selecting an operation mode of the touch sensor among a touch recognition mode and a gesture recognition mode; a first switching circuit unit forming a first electrode pattern group configured of at least one of the first electrode patterns by a switching operation and a second switching circuit unit forming a second electrode pattern group configured of at least one of the second electrode patterns by the switching operation, when the gesture recognition mode is selected; and a control unit detecting a switching operation of the first switching circuit unit and the second switching circuit unit and a change in mutual capacitance in the first electrode pattern group and the second electrode pattern group depending on an operation mode selection of the touch sensor.
