An electronic device can include integrated micro circuitry configurable for optical sensing and touch and/or proximity sensing. An integrated touch screen can include light emitting diodes or organic light emitting diodes and chiplets. In some examples, the LEDs/OLEDs and chiplets can be disposed in a visible area of the integrated touch screen. In some examples, some or all of the chiplets can be disposed outside of the visible area of the integrated touch screen. In some examples, the chiplets can include display driving circuitry and touch sensing circuitry, and can optionally perform optical sensing using the touch sensing circuitry. In some examples, the chiplets can include separate touch chiplets configured to perform touch sensing (and/or optical sensing) and display chiplets configured to perform display functionality (and optionally provide some switching functionality).

Provided is a display device comprising a display panel, a metal plate on a bottom surface of the display panel, the metal plate including a first surface facing the bottom surface of the display panel and a second surface opposite to the one surface, and a fingerprint sensor overlappingly disposed on the second surface of the metal plate, wherein the metal plate includes an indentation groove recessed in a direction toward the first surface from the second surface of the metal plate, and the fingerprint sensor is disposed on the second surface of the metal plate on which the indentation groove is formed.

An image display control device according to the present invention includes a display control unit, an obtaining unit, a drawing unit, a deleting unit, and an operating unit. The display control unit displays an image on a display device. The obtaining unit obtains contact position information or proximity position information of a drawing device, which is relative to a display area of the display device. The drawing unit generates a drawn image, compose a display image of an information processing apparatus with the drawn image, and displays the composite image on the display device. The deleting unit deletes the drawn image from the displayed image, and display on the display device. The operating unit operates the information processing apparatus. The drawing device switches and specifies a generation and deletion of the drawn image, and an operation of the information processing apparatus.

Aspects of the present invention relate to external user interfaces used in connection with head worn computers (HWC).

A touch sensitive apparatus comprises a top plate configured such that light from the one or more light sources is transmitted within the top plate with total internal reflection; and a base plate within which, light is transmissible. The base plate comprises a plurality of base plate elements optically separated from each other. The top plate and the base plate are configured such that if an external body touches a first surface of the top plate, then light is coupled from a second surface of the top plate into an underlying base plate element for transmission within that base plate element. Each base plate element has one or more detectors for detecting light transmitted within that base plate element. A processor determines information from the detectors relating to touching of the first surface of the top plate. An associated method is also described.
