Encoding apparatus, e.g. for a business machine keyboard includes a resilient striker (for each key) for inducing diverging sound waves within a rod by impact with it. Transducers positioned along the rod on each side of the striker and at unequal distances from it, convert the sound wave fronts into a first and a second output signal which respectively start and stop an oscillator-driven binary counter (to indicate the location and thus identity of the actuated key).

11 Smart Acoustical Electrical Switch US15984472 2018-05-21 US20180269015A1 2018-09-20 John Willis
An electrical switch responds to acoustic inputs. A microphone integrated into the electrical switch generates electrical signals in response to the acoustic inputs. A network interface integrated into the electrical switch provides addressable communication with controllers, computers, and other networked devices. The electrical switch may thus be installed or retrofitted into the electrical wiring of all homes and businesses. Users may thus speak voice commands, which are received by the electrical switch and sent for voice control of appliances and other automation tasks.

An apparatus is disclosed for supplying input signals to a computer. A sensor having the form of a sphere has a touch sensitive surface for generating position data for touch events. The sensor includes orientation sensors that determine rotation with respect to the earth's magnetic and gravitational fields. Orientation data may be combined with position data to interpret the orientation of touch events on the surface with respect to the computer's display. Cursor movement or text may be generated from touch events. Preferably the sphere has a roughened surface that generates sound when touched. Position data is generated by processing signals from microphones under the sphere's surface.
13 Acoustic wave touch detection circuit and method US11781808 2007-07-23 US07812269B2 2010-10-12 Terence J. Knowles; Wayne J. Wehrer; Chris Kalmus; Charles F. Bremigan, III
A circuit for an acoustic wave switch or sensor having a resonant acoustic wave cavity detects a touch or sensed event using a time domain approach. The circuit includes a controller that drives an acoustic wave transducer to generate a resonant acoustic wave in the acoustic wave cavity during a first portion of a sampling cycle. In a second portion of the sampling cycle, the controller monitors the time that it takes for the acoustic wave signal from the transducer to decay to a predetermined level. Based on the decay time, the controller detects a sensed event, such as a touch on the acoustic wave switch/sensor.
14 Acoustic wave touch actuated switch with feedback US09998220 2001-11-20 US07463249B2 2008-12-09 Terence J. Knowles; Charles F. Bremigan, III
An acoustic wave switch includes a substrate with an acoustic wave cavity formed therein such that the mass per unit area of the acoustic cavity is greater than the mass per unit area of the substrate adjacent the cavity. A transducer is mounted on the acoustic cavity for generating an acoustic wave that is substantially trapped in the cavity. A touch on the touch surface of the acoustic wave cavity absorbs acoustic wave energy and produces a detectable change in the impedance of the transducer. Various feedback mechanisms can be employed to provide a user with a tactile, audible and/or visual response indicating actuation of the switch by a touch.

18 Electronic control button operated by sound absorption US626390 1990-12-12 US5149986A 1992-09-22 Vincent P. Jalbert
An electronic control or touch button, with no moving button parts and operated by sound absorption, including in a first embodiment (FIG. 1) a cylindrical, metal, outer casing (1) of comparable diameter to standard buttons. The casing holds a glass, ball-shaped button (2) serving as a sound transmitting medium, the exposed side of which serves as the button touch surface (3). Behind the ball-shaped button is a printed circuit board (4), carrying on it an integrated circuit (IC; 5), an ultrasound transducer (6), and a series of light emitting diodes (LED; 7). In operation the transducer routinely sends sound (or ultrasound) waves into the glass ball and then receives back the echoes of its transmission--in sonar fashion. If skin or other material comes into contact with the touch surface, some of the sound will be absorbed by the material, and the reduced echoes detected by the IC, which is analyzing the echoes. When the echoes are so reduced (compare upper and lower wave form traces in FIG. 4B), the IC then causes the electrical or electronic function controlled by the touch button to be activated (or deactivated, depending on the design, or otherwise altered). The LEDs then are activated, providing visual feedback to the button pusher. Additionally, tactile and/or audio feedback may be implemented. An exemplary circuit is illustrated in FIG. 3. A second embodiment (FIGS. 2 & 2A) uses a solid metal plate (11) having two button-like-configured depressions (13A & B) surrounded by two, concentric isolation rings (14A/14A & 14B/14B).
