Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1617445A1] The electrical pushbutton field is mounted in a rectangular box (18). The flexible foil covering the electrodes and a piezoelectric layer has circles (20,20') to mark the position of each button. Each circle marking is accommodated in a square, bounded by narrow solid strips (22). The interdigitating positive and negative electrodes are connected to a control system by an array of wires passing through a tube (8) extending from the bottom of the box.
