OPTICAL TOUCH PANEL SYSTEM, OPTICAL SENSING MODULE, AND OPERATION METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
1. An optical touch panel system for recognizing a track of an object to determine a corresponding gesture function, comprising:
- a touch control surface for the object to move on or above to form the track, the touch control surface including at least two touch control areas;
at least one image sensor for capturing a plurality of continuous pictures including images of the object; and
a processor for determining which touch control area is active according to the track of the object in the pictures, and recognizing the track to execute a corresponding gesture function which is pre-defined in association with the active touch control area.

Abstract
The present invention discloses an optical touch panel system, an optical sensing module, and an operation method using for the same system. The system recognizes a track of an object moving on or above a touch control surface to determine a corresponding gesture function; it includes a touch control surface, at least one image sensor, and a processor. The touch control surface includes at least two touch control areas. The image sensor captures a plurality of continuous pictures including the images of the objects. The processer determines which touch control area the object is moving on or above according to a starting position or a path of the track, and executes a gesture function corresponding to the track and the touch control area.
