Description
POSITIONING METHOD OF TOUCH SCREEN PANELAND APPARATUS FOR EXECUTING THE METHOD
Technical Field The present invention relates to a touch screen panel, and more particularly, to a positioning method of a touch screen panel that can readily perform positioning and variously design a panel shape, and an apparatus for executing the method.
Background Art Generally, a touch screen panel is a pointing device in a planar shape. The touch screen panel is also referred to as a touch pad or a track pad.
The touch screen panel is used as an input device for various types of electrical and electronic products such as a computer and the like. The touch screen panel enables information corresponding to a contact location to be input when a user contacts a screen.
The existing touch screen panel has been widely used as an input device in various types of fields due to its convenience. The touch screen panel may be classified into a resistive type, an ultrasonic type, an optical type, and the like, depending on an input style. The touch screen panel is installed in a display screen of an image display device such as a liquid crystal display (LCD), a cathode ray type (CRT), a plasma display panel (PDP), an electroluminescence (EL), and the like. While viewing the display screen of the image display device, a user may contact a predetermined location of the touch screen panel according to information that the user desires to view. For example, a touch screen is installed in a monitor of an automatic transaction machine (ATM) of a bank. The user may touch a predetermined location of the screen according to a guideline displayed on the monitor and thereby input information according to the contact location. In response to the input, the ATM may perform a predetermined operation. FIG. 1 is a diagram for describing a method of recognizing coordinates according to a contact location of a user on a conventional touch screen panel.
As shown in FIG. 1, in the conventional touch screen panel, a panel
corresponding to a touch region 101 is formed in a square shape. When the user contacts a location Pl in the touch region 101, the touch screen panel may determine coordinates (x, y) where the contact occurs and recognize the coordinates (x, y) as a positioning value of the contact location. Specifically, the region 101 may recognize positioning of the contact location
Pl of the user within minimum coordinates (0, 0) and maximum coordinates (A, B) based on an X axis and a Y axis, according to the coordinates (x, y) and may receive, as a user command, information that is predetermined according to the corresponding coordinates. However, in the conventional touch screen panel, positioning of a contact location may be measured according to coordinates and thus there is some constraint on designing a panel shape.
Also, when the image display device is manufactured in various shapes, it is difficult to set reference coordinates of a touch screen panel and also difficult to measure positioning of a contact location.
The touch screen panel using the existing positioning method may not be manufactured to match the shape of the image display device. Accordingly, when a panel has a different shape from the image display device, there may be a region where a user contact does not occur. Also, invalid coordinates may increase.

region of a predetermined shape; and recognizing the calculated distance and the angle as a positioning value of the contact location.
In this instance, the touch region may be formed in a polygonal shape or a circular shape that includes at least three lines. Also, the calculating may include: calculating a distance between the contact location and the central point based on the reference line; and calculating an angle between the reference line and a line that is extended from the contact location to the central point, based on the reference line.

Hereinafter, a positioning method of a touch screen panel according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.
FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a positioning method of a touch screen panel according to an embodiment of the present invention. In operation S201, the touch screen panel may define a central point and a reference line in a touch region for positioning of a contact location of a user.
FIG. 3 is a diagram for describing a positioning method in a touch screen panel according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The touch screen panel may provide a touch region 301 in a polygonal shape or a circular shape consisting of at least three lines.
Initially, a central point 302 and a reference line 303 may be defined with respect to the touch region 301. The central point 302 may be set as a right central
location of the touch region 301. The reference line 303 may be set as a line that is extended from the central point 302 to the circumference of the touch region 301.
Particularly, a polygonal shape or a circular shape constituting the touch region 301 may be in a 360-degree rotational type based on the central point 302. Therefore, the reference line 303 may have an angle of about zero to about 360 degrees with respect to the central point 302.
In operation S202, the touch screen panel may determine whether an external contact of the user occurs in a predetermined location of the touch region 301.
In operation S203, when the external contact occurs, the touch screen panel may calculate a distance and an angle with respect to a contact location based on the central point and the reference line.
In further descriptions referring to FIG. 3, the touch screen panel may calculate a distance R 305 between the central point 302 and a contact location 304 with respect to the contact location 304 of the user. The touch screen panel may calculate an angle r 306 between the reference line 303 and a line that is extended from the contact location 304 to the central point 302.
The touch screen panel may recognize the calculated distance 305 and the angle
306, as a positioning value of the contact location 304. Specifically, the positioning value of the contact location 304 may be expressed and recognized in a form of (distance, angle) according to the distance 305 and the angle 306 that are calculated based on the central point 302 and the reference line 303.
In operation S204, the touch screen panel may output, as an input signal, information that is predetermined according to the positioning value (distance, angle) of the contact location. According to an aspect of the present invention, a touch screen panel may predefine information corresponding to an input signal target for each positioning value in a touch region. Specifically, when a user contacts a predetermined location of the touch region, the touch screen panel may recognize a positioning value corresponding to the contact location and then output, as an input signal, information that is predetermined with respect to the recognized positioning value.
According to the above positioning method, when a location or a shape of a touch screen panel or an image display device for installing the touch screen panel is
changed, it is possible to re-set a central point and a reference line of the touch screen panel to a desired location and thereby readily perform correction. Specifically, although information that is predetermined according to a positioning value is not changed, it is possible to perform correction according to the change in a location or shape of the touch screen panel or the image display device by resetting the central point and the reference line.
Hereinafter, a positioning apparatus for performing a positioning method of a touch screen panel according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.
