Making no bones about the Google Nexus One, the much-hyped phone has definitely managed to entice exquisite fiends. Now, Synaptics has recently proclaimed that the Nexus One phone utilizes its ClearPad 2000 capacitive touchscreen sensor.
For offering users an ideal touchscreen experience with smooth gestures and responsive visual feedback, the device comes equipped with a 3.7-inch WVGA Amoled display, a powerful 1 GHz Snapdragon CPU, and Synaptics ClearPad sensor.
“Synaptics is proud to be chosen for a breakthrough mobile design,” stated Tom Tiernan, Synaptics president and CEO. “Synaptics’ proven touchscreen experience and track record in premier mobile phone design wins reflect our strong portfolio of touchscreen solutions. As a founding member of the Open Handheld Alliance, we look forward to continuing partnerships with other Open Handset Alliance members as we execute on our innovative product roadmap supporting compelling human interface design.”
To notify, the company’s ClearPad Series brings forth the broadest portfolio of advanced, proven capacitive touchscreen technology. These high-resolution capacitive touchscreen solutions bring users rich functionality in a limited space. A ClearPad touch sensor offers an easy-to-use, discoverable interface for screen navigation, selection, interactive input, and much more.
Endured by Synaptics’ exclusive solution stack and engineering services, the efficient ClearPad also helps in addressing the multi-dimensional engineering challenges users face when creating and implementing advanced human interfaces. In addition, it provides DualTouch interaction, supporting single-finger input and two-finger gestures including Pinch and Pivot Rotate. Users may also be gladdened to realize that ClearPad sensors are resistant to dirt and moisture because they are mounted beneath a device’s casing or a plastic facesheet. In fact, doze, sleep, and deep sleep modes help maximize battery life. These sensors can be ready for use as soon as 100 milliseconds from device power-on.
The company’s ClearPad is now available to manufactures who want proven capacitive touchscreens to enhance their mobile devices for navigation, scrolling, and more.
