    Abstract: A touch and hover-sensitive sensor system is provided. The system may include a planar light guide that has a plurality of light sources located along a first edge of the light guide and a plurality of light sensors located along a second edge of the light guide orthogonal to the first edge. The light guide may include light-turning arrangements that are configured to redirect light passing through a first side of the light guide from/along orthogonal directions within the light guide. A controller may illuminate proper subsets of the light sources; light that is emitted from the first side and that encounters an object, e.g., a fingertip, may be reflected back into the first side and then redirected to the light sensors. Depending on the light sensors that detect the highest redirected reflected light intensity and the active light sources, the controller may determine the XY/XYZ location of the object.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for recognizing user interactions with an electronic device are provided. Implementations of the systems, methods, and apparatus include surface and air gesture recognition and identification of fingertips or other objects. In some implementations, a device including a plurality of detectors configured to receive signals indicating interaction of an object with the device at or above a detection area, such that a low resolution image can be generated from the signals, is provided. The device is configured to obtain low resolution image data from the signals and obtain a first reconstructed depth map from the low resolution image data. The first reconstructed depth map may have a higher resolution than the low resolution image. The device is further configured to obtain a second reconstructed depth map from the first reconstructed depth map. The second reconstructed depth map may provide improved boundaries and less noise within the object.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for harvesting dissipated heat from integrated circuits (ICs) in electronic devices into electrical energy for providing power for the electronic devices are disclosed. In one embodiment, energy transferred from one or more ICs in the form of dissipated heat is harvested to convert at least a portion of this dissipated heat into electricity. This power can be used to provide power to the ICs to reduce overall power consumption by the electronic device. The harvested dissipated heat can be supplied to ICs in the electronic device to provide power to the ICs. Alternatively, or in addition, the harvested dissipated heat can be stored in an energy storage device to provide power to the ICs at a later time.
