Abstract

An audio signal processing device includes an analog gain amplification circuit, a peak detection circuit, a codec and digital gain amplifier, a time delay module and an audio output processing circuit. The codec and digital gain amplifier provides a digital gain amplification factor. The analog gain amplification circuit provides at least one analog gain magnification factor. The peak detection circuit generates a peak detection signal. The time delay module provides a signal delay time. In the signal delay time, the codec and digital gain amplifier estimates and judges whether a multiplication result of the peak detection signal, the at least one analog gain amplification factor and the digital gain amplification factor exceeds a peak threshold value, thereby determining whether the at least one analog gain amplification factor and/or the digital gain amplification factor is reduced in advance.

Abstract

A force touch judgement method is applied to a force touch pad with two force sensors. Firstly, a force touch operation corresponding to a real force value is performed on a force touch position. Then, a first sensing signal value and a second sensing signal value corresponding to the force touch operation are respectively generated by the two force sensors. Then, the first sensing signal value and the second sensing signal value are added as a total sensing signal value. A calibration force value corresponding to the force touch position is obtained. A first calibration signal value and a second calibration signal value corresponding to the force touch position are added as a total calibration signal value. A ratio of the total sensing signal value to the total calibration signal value is equal to a ratio of the real force value to the calibration force value.

Each switch unit in the first matrix circuit is an ink-type force sensing switch. A resistance of the ink-type force sensing switch is variable according to a pressing mode of a keypress action. An electrical connection path is formed between the ink-type force sensing switch and the corresponding bias resistor of the second bias resistor group.

Furthermore, the cooperation of the first matrix circuit and the first bias resistor group can achieve a ghost key preventing function.

In response to the magnetic attractive force, the magnetically attractable transmitter coil structure is moved upwardly through the lifting assembly. Consequently, the magnetically attractable transmitter coil structure and the magnetically attractable receiver coil structure are attracted by and aligned with each other.

Abstract

A mouse device includes a casing, a key module and a stopping assembly. The key module includes a switch and a keycap. When the keycap is in a pressable state and the keycap is pressed in response to an external force, the keycap is moved toward the switch to trigger the switch. The stopping assembly is disposed within the casing and aligned with the key module. The stopping assembly includes an actuating screw and a stopper. The actuating screw is screwed into the stopper. While the actuating screw is rotated in response to a rotational force, the actuating screw is moved in a screwing manner, and the stopper is moved toward a region between the keycap and the switch. When the keycap is stopped by a first stopping part of the stopper, the keycap is switched from the pressable state to a non-pressable state.

Abstract

A mouse device includes a roller module. The roller module includes a base member, a scroll wheel, a magnetic conductor, a swingable arm, a driving motor and an actuating element. The scroll wheel is installed on the base member. The magnetic conductor is located beside the scroll wheel. When the scroll wheel is rotated, the magnetic conductor is correspondingly rotated. The swingable arm is installed on the base member. The swingable arm includes a magnetic element. The swingable arm is swingable relative to the magnetic conductor. When the swingable arm is swung to a first position, the magnetic element is aligned with the magnetic conductor. Consequently, a magnetic attraction force between the magnetic element and the magnetic conductor is generated. When the swingable arm is swung to a second position, the magnetic attraction force between the magnetic element and the magnetic conductor is eliminated.

Abstract

An audio and video streaming device includes a device main body and a lens cover. The device main body includes a power source, a lens element, an audio and video output unit and a sensing and controlling module. When the power source is in an on state and a relationship between the lens cover and the lens element is in an opened state, the sensing and controlling module issues an audio and video streaming signal to the audio and video output unit. When the power source is in the on state and the relationship between the lens cover and the lens element is in a closed state, the sensing and controlling module stops issuing the audio and video streaming signal, and the power source is maintained in the on state.

Abstract

A mouse device includes a casing and plural key modules. The plural key modules are installed on two opposite sides of the casing. Each key module includes a switch, an elastic element, a keycap and a stopper. The switch and the elastic element are disposed within the casing. The keycap is detachably connected with the elastic element. The elastic element is arranged between the keycap and the switch. When the keycap is in a pressable state and the keycap is pressed in response to an external force, the keycap is moved in a direction toward the switch and the elastic element is moved with the keycap, so that the switch is triggered by the elastic element. The stopper is detachably connected between the keycap and the elastic element. When the keycap is stopped by the stopper, the keycap is switched from the pressable state to a non-pressable state.

Abstract

A digital photographing device is provided. The digital photographing device can be operated in at least two manual focus modes to provide at least two different common focus lengths. The user can select a suitable manual focus mode from the at least two manual focus modes. When the user faces the digital photographing device to take a selfie or create a live stream, the user can realize the current focus mode of the digital photographing device in real time according to the indication of the focus mode indication module.

Abstract

A backlight kit includes a base member, a covering member, a slim-type light guide element and an illumination module. The covering member is combined with the base member. The slim-type light guide element and the illumination module are arranged between the base member and the covering member. After the illumination module emits a light beam to the slim-type light guide element, the light beam is transferred through the slim-type light guide element. Consequently, a luminance gradient region is formed on the surface of the covering member.
