Description
本發明是有關於一種觸控裝置,尤其是有關於一種可用於觸控裝置的線光源模組及具有此線光源模組的光學觸控裝置。The present invention relates to a touch device, and more particularly to a line light source module that can be used for a touch device and an optical touch device having the line light source module.
觸控功能已成為現今許多電子裝置必備的功能之一,而觸控裝置即為實現觸控功能所需之常見電子元件。目前觸控裝置的種類主要包括電阻式、電容式、光學式等,電子裝置可根據不同的觸控需求而搭配不同種類的觸控裝置。Touch function has become one of the functions necessary for many electronic devices today, and the touch device is a common electronic component required for implementing touch functions. At present, the types of touch devices mainly include resistive, capacitive, optical, etc., and electronic devices can be matched with different types of touch devices according to different touch requirements.
圖1為習知一種光學式觸控裝置之結構示意圖。請參照圖1,習知光學式觸控裝置100包括一導光組110、一發光元件120以及一影像偵測模組130。其中,導光組110包括二導光條112a、112b以及一條狀鏡(mirror)114。導光條112a、112b與條狀鏡114沿一矩形軌跡之三個邊排列,其中導光條112a與條狀鏡114相對,而導光條112b連接於導光條112a與條狀鏡114之間,且上述矩形軌跡內的區域為一感測區116。此外,發光元件120設置於導光條112a與導光條112b相鄰兩端之間,且用以提供光線至導光條112a與導光條112b內。導光條112a、112b用以將光源提供的光線轉換成線性光 源,以藉由線性光源照射整個感測區116。另外,影像偵測模組130設置於導光條112a旁,且影像偵測模組130的視野(Field of View,FOV)涵蓋整個感測區116。FIG. 1 is a schematic structural view of a conventional optical touch device. Referring to FIG. 1 , the optical touch device 100 includes a light guiding group 110 , a light emitting component 120 , and an image detecting module 130 . The light guiding group 110 includes two light guiding strips 112a and 112b and a mirror 114. The light guiding strips 112a, 112b and the strip mirror 114 are arranged along three sides of a rectangular track, wherein the light guiding strip 112a is opposite to the strip mirror 114, and the light guiding strip 112b is connected to the light guiding strip 112a and the strip mirror 114. The area within the rectangular track is a sensing area 116. In addition, the light emitting element 120 is disposed between the adjacent ends of the light guiding strip 112a and the light guiding strip 112b, and is configured to provide light into the light guiding strip 112a and the light guiding strip 112b. The light guiding strips 112a, 112b are used to convert the light provided by the light source into linear light. The source is to illuminate the entire sensing region 116 by a linear light source. In addition, the image detecting module 130 is disposed beside the light guiding strip 112a, and the field of view (FOV) of the image detecting module 130 covers the entire sensing area 116.
承上述,影像偵測模組130用於偵測感測區116內是否有遮光物,並計算出遮光物的位置。更詳細地說,感測區116中的觸控點(即遮光物)A經由條狀鏡114產生一鏡像點A1,而影像偵測模組130會偵測到暗點A2、A3。如此,距離d1、d2可被計算出,並且配合其他已知的參數可算出觸控點A的位置(座標)。上述之其他已知的參數包括感測區116於X軸的長度、感測區116於Y軸的寬度、觸控點A至條狀鏡114的最短距離等於鏡像點A1至條狀鏡114的最短距離等。有關於詳細的座標計算方法為所屬技術領域中的通常知識,在此將不詳述。In the above, the image detecting module 130 is configured to detect whether there is a shade in the sensing area 116 and calculate the position of the shade. In more detail, the touch point (ie, the shade) A in the sensing area 116 generates a mirror point A1 via the strip mirror 114, and the image detecting module 130 detects the dark points A2 and A3. Thus, the distances d1, d2 can be calculated, and the position (coordinates) of the touch point A can be calculated in conjunction with other known parameters. Other known parameters include the length of the sensing region 116 on the X axis, the width of the sensing region 116 on the Y axis, and the shortest distance from the touch point A to the strip mirror 114 equal to the mirror point A1 to the strip mirror 114. The shortest distance, etc. The detailed coordinate calculation method is a general knowledge in the art, and will not be described in detail herein.
但是,習知光學式觸控裝置100存在一定的盲區150(Blind Zone)。盲區150的意思是無法精確計算出觸控點座標的區域。舉例來說,感測區116中的觸控點B剛好位於盲區150,此時影像偵測器130所偵測到的暗點B2、B3會有部分重疊,如此將無法精確地計算出觸控點B的座標。However, the conventional optical touch device 100 has a certain blind zone 150 (Blind Zone). The blind zone 150 means that the area of the touch point coordinates cannot be accurately calculated. For example, the touch point B in the sensing area 116 is located in the blind area 150. At this time, the dark spots B2 and B3 detected by the image detector 130 may partially overlap, so that the touch cannot be accurately calculated. Point B coordinates.
圖2為習知另一種光學式觸控裝置之結構示意圖。請參照圖2,習知光學式觸控裝置100a與習知光學式觸控裝置100之區別在於導光組110a包括二導光條112a、112b以及二條狀鏡114a、114b。導光條112a、112b相鄰設置,且條狀鏡114a、114b亦相鄰設置,並且導光條112a、112b與條狀鏡114a、114b沿一矩形軌跡之四個邊排列,而矩形軌跡內的區域為一感測區116。2 is a schematic structural view of another conventional optical touch device. Referring to FIG. 2, the conventional optical touch device 100a is different from the conventional optical touch device 100 in that the light guiding group 110a includes two light guiding strips 112a and 112b and two strip mirrors 114a and 114b. The light guiding strips 112a, 112b are disposed adjacent to each other, and the strip mirrors 114a, 114b are also disposed adjacent to each other, and the light guiding strips 112a, 112b and the strip mirrors 114a, 114b are arranged along four sides of a rectangular track, and the rectangular tracks are arranged. The area is a sensing area 116.
相較於習知光學式觸控裝置100,雖然習知光學式觸控裝置100a的盲區150a的面積大幅減少,但是盲區的問題仍然存在。此外,由於習知光學式觸控裝置100a之導光 模組110a包括二條狀鏡114a、114b,使得位於感測區116之每一觸控點會相應地產生三個鏡像,導致影像偵測模組130偵測到較多的暗點,如此將提高計算觸控點之座標的複雜度。Compared with the conventional optical touch device 100, although the area of the blind spot 150a of the conventional optical touch device 100a is greatly reduced, the problem of the blind spot still exists. In addition, due to the light guide of the conventional optical touch device 100a The module 110a includes two strips 114a and 114b, so that each touch point in the sensing area 116 generates three mirror images correspondingly, which causes the image detecting module 130 to detect more dark spots, which will improve Calculate the complexity of the coordinates of the touch point.
另外,當感測區116同時出現兩個觸控點時,會相應地產生六個鏡像,此將大幅增加計算出此二觸控點之座標的複雜度,因此習知光學式觸控裝置100a並不利於實現雙點觸控(dual-touch)或多點觸控(multi-touch)。In addition, when two sensing points are simultaneously generated in the sensing area 116, six mirror images are generated correspondingly, which greatly increases the complexity of calculating the coordinates of the two touch points, so the conventional optical touch device 100a It is not conducive to dual-touch or multi-touch.

請再次參照圖3,光源模組220例如包括一第一發光元件222以及一第二發光元件224。本實施例中,第一發光元件222例如是設置於第二導光元件214與第三導光元件216相鄰兩端之間。第一發光元件222與第三導光元件216可構成所謂的線光源模組,而第二發光元件224與第四導光元件218可構成另一線光源模組。第一發光元件222用以提供光線至第三導光元件216之光入射端413,並用以提供光線至第二導光元件214之光入射面313。第二發光元件224設置於第四導光元件218與第一導光元件212相鄰兩端之間。第二發光元件224用以提供光線至第四導光元件218之光入射端413,並用以提供光線至第一導光元件212之光入射面313。在其他實施例中,可藉由其他發光元件提供光線至第一導光元件212與第二導光元件214,而非藉由第一發光元件222與第二發光元件224提供光線至第一導光元件212與第二導光元件214。Referring to FIG. 3 again, the light source module 220 includes a first light emitting element 222 and a second light emitting element 224 . In this embodiment, the first light-emitting element 222 is disposed between the second ends of the second light guiding element 214 and the third light guiding element 216, for example. The first light-emitting element 222 and the third light-guiding element 216 may constitute a so-called line source module, and the second light-emitting element 224 and the fourth light-guitar element 218 may constitute another line source module. The first illuminating element 222 is configured to provide light to the light incident end 413 of the third light guiding element 216 and to provide light to the light incident surface 313 of the second light guiding element 214. The second light emitting element 224 is disposed between the fourth light guiding element 218 and the adjacent ends of the first light guiding element 212. The second illuminating element 224 is configured to provide light to the light incident end 413 of the fourth light guiding element 218 and to provide light to the light incident surface 313 of the first light guiding element 212. In other embodiments, light may be supplied to the first light guiding element 212 and the second light guiding element 214 by other light emitting elements instead of providing light to the first light by the first light emitting element 222 and the second light emitting element 224. The light element 212 and the second light guiding element 214.
上述之第一發光元件222與第二發光元件224適於交替發光。當第一發光元件222開啟,而第二發光元件224關閉時,第一發光元件222提供光線至第三導光元件216,而第三導光元件216將光線轉換成傳遞至感測區域219的線性光源。同時,因第二發光元件224關閉,故第四導光元件218用以提供鏡面功能。反之,當第一發光元件222關閉,而第 二發光元件224開啟時,第二發光元件224提供光線至第四導光元件218,而第四導光元件218將光線轉換成傳遞至感測區域219的線性光源。同時,因第一發光元件222關閉,故第三導光元件216用以提供鏡面功能。The first light-emitting element 222 and the second light-emitting element 224 described above are adapted to alternately emit light. When the first illuminating element 222 is turned on and the second illuminating element 224 is turned off, the first illuminating element 222 provides light to the third light guiding element 216, and the third light guiding element 216 converts the light into a sensing region 219. Linear light source. At the same time, the fourth light guiding element 218 is used to provide a mirror function because the second light emitting element 224 is turned off. Conversely, when the first light-emitting element 222 is turned off, and When the second light-emitting element 224 is turned on, the second light-emitting element 224 provides light to the fourth light-guiding element 218, and the fourth light-guitar element 218 converts the light into a linear light source that is transmitted to the sensing region 219. At the same time, the third light guiding element 216 is used to provide a mirror function because the first light emitting element 222 is turned off.
上述之影像偵測模組230設置於第一導光元件212與第二導光元件214相鄰兩端之間。影像偵測模組230之視野涵蓋感測區域219、第三導光元件216與第四導光元件218。因此,影像偵測模組230可以有效偵測到感測區域219內的遮光物以及經由第三導光元件216或第四導光元件218所形成的遮光物虛像之光學資訊,以準確定位感測區域219內的遮光物之位置(座標)。The image detecting module 230 is disposed between adjacent first ends of the first light guiding element 212 and the second light guiding element 214. The field of view of the image detecting module 230 covers the sensing area 219, the third light guiding element 216 and the fourth light guiding element 218. Therefore, the image detecting module 230 can effectively detect the optical information in the sensing area 219 and the optical information of the blackout image formed by the third light guiding element 216 or the fourth light guiding element 218, so as to accurately sense the position. The position (coordinate) of the shade in the area 219 is measured.
此外,上述之光學觸控裝置200更可包括一基板(圖未示),而導光模組210與光源模組220可設置於基板上。In addition, the optical touch device 200 can further include a substrate (not shown), and the light guide module 210 and the light source module 220 can be disposed on the substrate.
下文將具體描述適用於上述之光學觸控裝置200之光學觸控裝置的定位方法。A positioning method of an optical touch device suitable for the optical touch device 200 described above will be specifically described below.
適用於上述之光學觸控裝置200之光學觸控裝置的定位方法包括以下步驟:控制光學觸控裝置200之第一發光元件222與第二發光元件224交替發光。當第一發光元件222開啟而第二發光元件224關閉時,影像偵測模組偵230測到一第一光學資訊。當第一發光元件222關閉而第二發光元件224開啟時,影像偵測模組230偵測到一第二光學資訊;以及根據影像偵測模組230所偵測到之第一光學資訊以及第二光學資訊判斷位於感測區域219內的遮光物之位置。The positioning method of the optical touch device for the optical touch device 200 described above includes the following steps: controlling the first light-emitting element 222 and the second light-emitting element 224 of the optical touch device 200 to alternately emit light. When the first illuminating element 222 is turned on and the second illuminating element 224 is turned off, the image detecting module detects 230 to detect a first optical information. When the first illuminating element 222 is turned off and the second illuminating element 224 is turned on, the image detecting module 230 detects a second optical information; and the first optical information detected by the image detecting module 230 and the first The second optical information determines the position of the shade located in the sensing area 219.
具體而言,請參閱圖8,當第一發光元件222開啟而第二發光元件224關閉時,第四導光元件218提供鏡面功能,故位於感測區域219的遮光物C將會形成一虛像C1,而影像偵測模組230可偵測到關於遮光物C以及虛像C1之第 一光學資訊(如暗點C2、C3)。如此,距離d3、d4可被計算出,並且配合其他已知的參數可算出遮光物C的位置(座標)。上述之其他已知的參數包括感測區219於X軸的長度、感測區219於Y軸的寬度、遮光物C至第四導光元件218的最短距離等於虛像C1至第四導光元件218的最短距離等。有關於詳細的座標計算方法為所屬技術領域中的通常知識,在此將不詳述。Specifically, referring to FIG. 8, when the first light-emitting element 222 is turned on and the second light-emitting element 224 is turned off, the fourth light-guiding element 218 provides a mirror function, so that the shade C located in the sensing region 219 will form a virtual image. C1, and the image detecting module 230 can detect the first about the shade C and the virtual image C1 An optical information (such as dark spots C2, C3). Thus, the distances d3, d4 can be calculated, and the position (coordinates) of the shade C can be calculated in conjunction with other known parameters. Other known parameters include the length of the sensing region 219 on the X-axis, the width of the sensing region 219 on the Y-axis, and the shortest distance from the shade C to the fourth light guiding member 218 being equal to the virtual image C1 to the fourth light guiding element. The shortest distance of 218, etc. The detailed coordinate calculation method is a general knowledge in the art, and will not be described in detail herein.
此外,請參閱圖9,當第一發光元件222關閉而第二發光元件224開啟時,第三導光元件216提供鏡面功能,故位於感測區域219的遮光物C將會形成一虛像C4,而影像偵測模組偵230可偵測到關於遮光物C以及虛像C4之第二光學資訊(如暗點C5、C6)。如此,距離d5、d6可被計算出,並且配合其他已知的參數可算出遮光物C的位置(座標)。In addition, referring to FIG. 9, when the first light-emitting element 222 is turned off and the second light-emitting element 224 is turned on, the third light-guiding element 216 provides a mirror function, so the shade C located in the sensing region 219 will form a virtual image C4. The image detection module 230 can detect the second optical information about the shade C and the virtual image C4 (such as dark spots C5, C6). Thus, the distances d5, d6 can be calculated, and the position (coordinate) of the shade C can be calculated in conjunction with other known parameters.
然後,根據影像偵測模組230所偵測到之第一光學資訊以及第二光學資訊即可判斷位於感測區域219內的遮光物C之位置。一般情況下,由第一光學資訊和第二光學資訊可分別計算出遮光物C的正確位置(座標)。Then, the position of the shade C located in the sensing area 219 can be determined according to the first optical information and the second optical information detected by the image detecting module 230. In general, the correct position (coordinate) of the shade C can be calculated from the first optical information and the second optical information, respectively.
然而,如前所述,當光學觸控裝置僅有一個鏡子組件時,會存在盲區。在本實施例之光學觸控裝置200中,當第一發光元件222開啟而第二發光元件224關閉時,若感測區域219的遮光物正好位於盲區內,可能無法獲得有效可用的第一光學資訊。但是,當第一發光元件222關閉而第二發光元件224開啟時,感測區域219的遮光物將不會位於盲區內,從而可以獲得有效可用的第二光學資訊,因此可以由第二光學資訊計算出感測區域219內的遮光物之正確位置(座標)。反之亦然。換言之,在圖8狀態下的光學觸控裝置200的盲區不同於在圖9狀態下的光學觸控裝置200的盲區,當第一光學資訊與第二光學資訊其中之一無效時,可藉由另一 光學資訊來計算出遮光物的正確位置。因此,本實施例之光學觸控裝置200及其定位方法可有效解決盲區的問題。However, as previously mentioned, when the optical touch device has only one mirror assembly, there is a dead zone. In the optical touch device 200 of the present embodiment, when the first light-emitting element 222 is turned on and the second light-emitting element 224 is turned off, if the light-shielding region of the sensing region 219 is located in the blind region, the first optical light that is effectively available may not be obtained. News. However, when the first illuminating element 222 is turned off and the second illuminating element 224 is turned on, the shading of the sensing region 219 will not be located in the blind spot, so that the second optical information that is effectively available can be obtained, and thus the second optical information can be obtained. The correct position (coordinate) of the shade in the sensing region 219 is calculated. vice versa. In other words, the blind area of the optical touch device 200 in the state of FIG. 8 is different from the blind area of the optical touch device 200 in the state of FIG. 9, when one of the first optical information and the second optical information is invalid, another Optical information to calculate the correct position of the shade. Therefore, the optical touch device 200 and the positioning method thereof of the embodiment can effectively solve the problem of the blind zone.
值得一提的是,本實施例之光學觸控裝置200及其定位方法有利於應用在雙點觸控領域或多點觸控領域。下文將以雙點觸控為例進行說明。It is worth mentioning that the optical touch device 200 and the positioning method thereof are advantageously applied in the field of dual touch or multi-touch. The following description will be made by taking a two-touch as an example.
光學觸控裝置200應用於雙點觸控時的定位方法與前述應用單點觸控時的定位方法類似,以下僅針對出現鬼影時的情況進行說明。圖10和11分別繪示為上述之光學觸控裝置200應用於雙點觸控時的示意圖。The positioning method of the optical touch device 200 when applied to the two-touch is similar to the positioning method when the single touch is applied. The following description is only for the case when ghosting occurs. 10 and 11 are schematic diagrams of the optical touch device 200 described above applied to two-touch.
請先參照圖10,當第一發光元件222開啟而第二發光元件224關閉時,第四導光元件218提供鏡面功能,故位於感測區域219的遮光物E、F將會形成虛像E1、F1,而影像偵測模組230可偵測到關於遮光物E、F以及虛像E1、E2之第一光學資訊(如暗點M1、E2、F2)。由於暗點M1是由兩點重疊而成,所以由第一光學資訊會算出三個遮光物E、F、G1的位置,其中遮光物G1即所謂的鬼影(ghost image),其並非真實存在,故此時尚無法確定遮光物E、F的正確位置。Referring first to FIG. 10, when the first light-emitting element 222 is turned on and the second light-emitting element 224 is turned off, the fourth light-guiding element 218 provides a mirror function, so that the shades E, F located in the sensing region 219 will form a virtual image E1. F1, and the image detecting module 230 can detect the first optical information (such as dark spots M1, E2, F2) about the shades E, F and the virtual images E1, E2. Since the dark point M1 is formed by overlapping two points, the position of the three shades E, F, and G1 is calculated by the first optical information, wherein the shade G1 is a so-called ghost image, which is not real. Therefore, it is impossible to determine the correct position of the shades E and F.
請參照圖11,當第一發光元件222關閉而第二發光元件224開啟時,第三導光元件216提供鏡面功能,故位於感測區域219的遮光物E、F將會形成虛像E3、F3,而影像偵測模組230可偵測到關於遮光物E、F以及虛像E3、F3之第一光學資訊(如暗點M2、E4、F4)。由於暗點M2是由兩點重疊而成,所以由第二光學資訊會算出三個遮光物E、F、G3的位置,其中遮光物G3即所謂的鬼影,其並非真實存在。由於第一光學資訊所算出的可能位置與第二光學資訊所算出的可能位置皆包含遮光物E、F的位置,因此可排除遮光物G1、G3的位置,進而確定遮光物E、F的正確位置。Referring to FIG. 11, when the first light-emitting element 222 is turned off and the second light-emitting element 224 is turned on, the third light-guiding element 216 provides a mirror function, so the shades E and F located in the sensing region 219 will form virtual images E3 and F3. The image detection module 230 can detect the first optical information (such as dark spots M2, E4, F4) about the shades E, F and the virtual images E3, F3. Since the dark point M2 is formed by overlapping two points, the position of the three shades E, F, and G3 is calculated by the second optical information, wherein the shade G3 is a so-called ghost, which is not real. Since the possible positions calculated by the first optical information and the possible positions calculated by the second optical information include the positions of the shades E and F, the positions of the shades G1 and G3 can be excluded, thereby determining the correctness of the shades E and F. position.
由於本實施例之光學觸控裝置200及其定位方法 採用使第一發光元件222與第二發光元件224交替發光的設計,以獲取第一光學資訊與第二光學資訊。因藉由第一光學資訊與第二光學資訊計算出遮光物之正確位置的方法較為簡單,所以本實施例之光學觸控裝置200及其定位方法有利於應用在雙點觸控領域或多點觸控領域。Optical touch device 200 of the embodiment and positioning method thereof A design is adopted to alternately emit the first light-emitting element 222 and the second light-emitting element 224 to obtain first optical information and second optical information. The method for calculating the correct position of the light shield by using the first optical information and the second optical information is relatively simple. Therefore, the optical touch device 200 and the positioning method thereof are advantageously applied in the field of dual touch or multiple points. Touch field.
圖12繪示為本發明第二實施例之光學觸控裝置之結構示意圖。請參閱圖12,本實施例之光學觸控裝置200a與光學觸控裝置200的不同之處在於第一導光元件212’與第二導光元件214’分別為一反光條。反光條具有一反射面511,而在採用反光條為第一導光元件212’與第二導光元件214’的實施例中,第一導光元件212’與第二導光元件214’之第一表面為反射面511。光源模組220’更包括一第三發光元件226,其設置於第一導光元件212’與第二導光元件214’之相鄰兩端之間,以提供光線至感測區域219。在光學觸控裝置200a開啟時,第三發光元件226會持續發光,而第一導光元件212’與第二導光元件214’用於將傳遞至第一表面(即反射面511)之光線反射至感測區域219。此外,本實施例之光學觸控裝置200a之第一發光元件222例如是僅用以提供光線至第三導光元件216,第二發光元件224例如是僅用以提供光線至第四導光元件218。FIG. 12 is a schematic structural diagram of an optical touch device according to a second embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 12, the optical touch device 200a of the present embodiment is different from the optical touch device 200 in that the first light guiding element 212' and the second light guiding element 214' are respectively a reflective strip. The reflective strip has a reflective surface 511, and in the embodiment in which the reflective strip is the first light guiding element 212' and the second light guiding element 214', the first light guiding element 212' and the second light guiding element 214' The first surface is a reflective surface 511. The light source module 220' further includes a third light emitting element 226 disposed between adjacent ends of the first light guiding element 212' and the second light guiding element 214' to provide light to the sensing area 219. When the optical touch device 200a is turned on, the third light-emitting element 226 continues to emit light, and the first light-guiding element 212' and the second light-guiding element 214' are used to transmit light to the first surface (ie, the reflective surface 511). Reflected to the sensing region 219. In addition, the first light-emitting element 222 of the optical touch device 200a of the present embodiment is only used to provide light to the third light-guiding element 216, for example, and the second light-emitting element 224 is only used to provide light to the fourth light-guiding element. 218.
本實施例之光學觸控裝置200a的優點與上述之光學觸控裝置200的優點相似,在此將不再重述。The advantages of the optical touch device 200a of the present embodiment are similar to those of the optical touch device 200 described above, and will not be repeated here.
綜上所述,本發明之至少具有下列優點:In summary, the present invention has at least the following advantages:
1.在本發明中,由於第一發光元件發光時與第二發光元件發光時,光學觸控裝置具有不同的盲區。當第一光學資訊與第二光學資訊其中之一無效時,可藉由另一光學資訊來計算出遮光物的正確位置。因此,本發明之光學觸控裝置及其定位方法可有效解決盲區的問題。1. In the present invention, since the first light-emitting element emits light and the second light-emitting element emits light, the optical touch device has different dead zones. When one of the first optical information and the second optical information is invalid, the correct position of the shade can be calculated by another optical information. Therefore, the optical touch device and the positioning method thereof of the present invention can effectively solve the problem of the blind spot.
2.當本發明之光學觸控裝置及其定位方法應用於雙點觸控領域或多點觸控領域時,因影像偵測模組所偵測到的第一光學資訊及第二光學資訊包含的資料較少(即暗點較少),所以可降低計算遮光物之正確位置的複雜度。因此,本發明之光學觸控裝置及其定位方法有利於應用在雙點觸控領域或多點觸控領域。2. When the optical touch device and the positioning method thereof are applied to the field of dual touch or multi-touch, the first optical information and the second optical information detected by the image detecting module include There is less data (ie fewer dark spots), so the complexity of calculating the correct position of the shading can be reduced. Therefore, the optical touch device and the positioning method thereof are advantageously applied in the field of dual touch or multi-touch.
3.本發明之線光源模組除了可用以提供線光源外,由於鏡面導光元件的表面(即第二表面)設有鏡面反光材料層,所以當發光元件關閉時,鏡面導光元件可提供鏡面功能。3. The line light source module of the present invention can provide a mirror light guiding element when the light emitting element is closed, except that the line light source module can be used to provide a line light source, since the surface of the mirror light guiding element (ie, the second surface) is provided with a mirror reflective material layer. Mirror function.
