Mesh patterns for touch sensor electrodes
First Claim
1. An electrode comprising a continuous first pattern and a discontinuous second mesh pattern bounded by and electrically isolated from the continuous first pattern, wherein the continuous first pattern of the electrode and the discontinuous second mesh pattern of the electrode comprise metallic traces, wherein the discontinuous second mesh pattern of the electrode is disposed in interior regions of the continuous first pattern of the electrode.

Abstract
An electrode for a touch sensitive device includes micro-wire conductors arranged to define an electrically continuous area and to include interior regions that are electrically discontinuous. The electrically continuous area may be patterned according to a one pattern, and the interior pattern may be patterned according to another pattern.
