Apparatus with Surface Information Displaying and Interaction Capability
First Claim
1. An apparatus with surface information displaying and interaction capability, comprising:
- a moving object;
a skin unit, covering at least a part of the exterior surface of the moving object while having a flexible display formed therein;
a tactile sensing unit, disposed on the skin unit for enabling the same to detect and measure the magnitude and position of a touch contacting the skin unit; and
a control unit, disposed on the moving object for controlling movements of the moving object and for controlling the skin unit to display an interactive information based on the sensing signals from the tactile sensing unit.

Abstract
The present invention provides an apparatus with surface information displaying, wherein a skin unit comprising a flexible display is covered on the surface of a moving object of the apparatus such that the surface of the apparatus is capable of displaying the information such us color, pattern or text immediately by software control. Meanwhile, the flexible display further has a layer of tactile sensing unit for detecting input of interacting signal. In addition, the moving object further integrates an environmental sensing device, an information identifying device or a combination of both and uses the environmental status, text information or audio/video, which are generated from the environmental sensing device or information identifying device, as an input signal through cable or wireless technology so as to generate responsive action through the flexible display or mechanism of the apparatus so that interactivities of the apparatus can be increased.
