With the spread of devices equipped with touch panels, such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops, the opportunity for users to perform touch interaction has increased. In this paper, we constructed a device that generates multi-touch interactions to realize high-speed, continuous, or hands-free touch input on a touch panel. The proposed device consists of an electrode sheet printed with multiple electrodes using conductive ink and a voltage control board, and generates eight multi-touch interactions: tap, double-tap, long-press, press-and-tap, swipe, pinch-in, pinch-out, and rotation, by changing the capacitance of the touch panel in time and space. In preliminary experiments, we investigated the appropriate electrode size and spacing for generating multi-touch interactions, and then implemented the device. From the evaluation experiments, it was confirmed that the proposed device can generate multi-touch interactions with high accuracy. As a result, tap, press-and-tap, swipe, pinch-in, pinch-out, and rotation can be generated with a success rate of 100%. It was confirmed that all the multi-touch interactions evaluated by the proposed device could be generated with high accuracy and acceptable speed.

This article points to the long-standing and significant role that the sound interface plays in shaping the ways we attend to media by considering its phatic function. Employing a reverse engineering approach, the article consists of an analysis of historical transformations in the regimen of attention produced by sound media to date, followed by discourse analyses of scientific and industry communities of digital sound interface design. Introducing the term “phatic alignment” to describe how media and humans are arranged in space and adjusted to communicate with one another, this article points to the increasing hold of the digital sound interface over the user’s attention and identifies the premises affording this trend. The article argues that in abstracting the human ear as an automated “phatic threshold” that regulates the user’s attention, digital sound interface design situates the user in constant attentiveness to media and sets the stage for next-generation communication technologies.

Color filter (CF) and touch panel (or touch sensor (TS)) are important components for optoelectronic materials and component manufacturing. Due to the cut-throat world of market in the manufacturing, the processes of color filters are similar to touch sensors. The case invested in the production of touch panels in 2009. After a long period of quality improvement, the problem of contamination pollution still accounts for ~30% of the total variation. In addition to the external problem, there is also the fail of communication caused by dirt or peeling. Therefore, the case was established to improve the dirt defect by setting up Lean Six Sigma project, and the project goal was to reduce the proportion to 0.18%. After three months of improvement and three months of continuous observation, the abnormal proportion of pollution decreased from 0.35% of the overall average defect loss to 0.13% (the improvement rate reached 63%). It is estimated that the entire product can generate 3 million (USD) of performance for the case in one year. It is also possible to increase the customer’s satisfaction and the company’s technical competitiveness by improving yield and achieving the continuous improvement of objectives.
