Abstract

The beginners are hard to use traditional remote controllers to operate sophisticated moving machines like robot, helicopter, airplane, and so on. Thus, only well-skilled operator has controlled them conventionally. This fact disturbs the spread of such sophisticated moving machines. Therefore, it is important to make their operation simple. In this paper, we propose a flexible touch panel with a single resistive film and some point electrodes. Any form of touch panel can be realized by using the flexible touch panel. That is, our flexible touch panel will realize an intuitive controller to operate sophisticated machine, by providing a simple operation interface. Through the experiments on a prototype system with a circular touch panel, the axis of the finger touching can be detected by using three point electrodes.

Highlights

  • The beginners are hard to use traditional remote controllers to operate sophisticated moving machines like robot, helicopter, airplane, and so on [1]

  • We propose a flexible touch panel with a single resistive sheet and some electrodes

  • Once the human finger touches to the resistive sheet, the series circuit of a capacitor and a resistor is formed in the human body to the ground

Summary

Introduction

The beginners are hard to use traditional remote controllers to operate sophisticated moving machines like robot, helicopter, airplane, and so on [1]. Only well-skilled operator has controlled them conventionally. This fact disturbs the spread of such sophisticated moving machines. We propose a flexible touch panel with a single resistive sheet and some electrodes. Since the resistive sheet can be cut to any form, any form of the touch panel can be made. Our flexible touch panel will realize an intuitive controller to operate sophisticated machine, by providing a simple operation interface.
