Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009106738A1] The present invention relates to a multicontact tactile sensor (1) comprising a matrix formed of two transparent conducting layers, at least one exhibiting an array of fine conducting tracks, and a control circuit comprising a power supply for one of the layers and means for detecting the other layer, said sensor (1) having an operating mode of multicontact type (32) corresponding to a sweep of the supply to the lines of the corresponding layer, characterized in that it also comprises an operating mode of monocontact type (33) corresponding to a continuous and uniform supply over the whole of the sensor, each operating mode (32, 33) being activated as a function of the detection or nondetection of at least one contact.
