20110037704 | FLASH LIGHTING INPUT APPARATUS AND DRIVING METHOD THEREFOR - This invention provides a flash lighting input apparatus and driving method. According to this invention, the flash lighting input apparatus can be a flash lighting keyboard. The flash lighting apparatus comprises a micro control unit, a pulse width modulation unit electrically connects to the micro control unit, a light control unit electrically connects to the pulse width modulation unit, and a lighting unit electrically connects to the light control unit. The micro control unit produces a control signal to the pulse width modulation unit, and the pulse width modulation unit produces a modulation signal according to the control signal. The lighting control unit receives the modulation signal and produces a driving signal according to the modulation signal, and transfers the driving signal to the lighting unit to drive the lighting unit. | 02-17-2011 |
20110141017 | Waterproof mouse - A waterproof mouse includes a casing assembly, a circuit board, two touch switches, and a capacitive touch panel. The casing assembly has a base and a cover that are assembled with each other. A soft ring is assembled between the base and the cover. An outer cover with an opening covers on the cover, forms two elastic pressing portions and provides two protruding posts penetrating the cover into the base. The circuit board is provided in the base. The touch switches are coupled to the circuit board respectively and correspond to the two protruding posts of the outer cover. The capacitive touch panel, coupled to the circuit board, is assembled with the cover and located in the opening of the outer cover. With the above structure, the liquid penetrated into the mouse can be prevented. Further, in virtue of the capacitive touch panel, the mouse has a unique practicability. | 06-16-2011 |
20110205036 | POWER-SAVING WIRELESS INPUT DEVICE - This invention relates to a power-saving wireless input device. A pulse-width-modulation unit is introduced to generate a pulse-width modulator signal for controlling a light-source control unit to produce a driving signal. The driving signal is of the same duty cycle as that of the pulse-width-modulation signal so as to control the on/off of an indicator light. Furthermore, the invention introduces a timer unit to count a length of a time period between receipts of two subsequent input signals. When the length of the time period exceeds a predetermined threshold, a wireless input device is configured to be operating in a hibernation mode. Still further, an optical unit using a beam-splitting technology is introduced so that only one luminescent component may be necessary to provide light beams for the indicator lights of the wireless input device. | 08-25-2011 |
