Touch Market Trends Touch is interface technology of choice. Smartphone Adoption - ~ 100% Tablet Adoption 100% Notebook 8% growing to > 60% All in One 4% growing to >30% New Products POP, POI, Multi-touch and fast response required Reductions in touch component cost required to drive expanded adoption. Current Technologies reaching cost/performance limits ITO technology limited to smaller sizes. ITO can not meet new faster touch response rates Glass based touch sensors require large CapEx and have low yield. 18

Scalability Advantage Multiple Development Designs above 10 with Multiple Controllers 10.1 11.6 13.3 15.6 The high conductivity of UniBoss touch sensors allow: Narrow product borders with high resolution bezel traces. Precise low latency touch performance even with large size displays. Lower overall total touch cost Touch sensor Fewer controller needed Higher yielding process 23 31

Printing Examples 6µm+/- 1um mesh 32

Metal Mesh and Moiré Moiré is an interference pattern created when two or more meshes are overlaid either at an angle, with different spatial frequencies. For touch screens, the display sub-mask interacts optically with capacitive grid overlay Moiré interference can be rendered undetectable for all display sizes and pixel sizes Force fringe spatial frequencies beyond the resolution limit of the eye/display. Reducing fringe contrast below detectable levels by minimizing line width. UniPixel developed a sophisticated optical analysis tools to analyze specific sub-pixel and mesh configurations and design patterns to minimize Moiré. 33

In-house Simulation LCD Pixels Accurate representation of sub-pixel mask Virtually any arrangement can be implemented Wire Mesh Mesh can have any angle, orientation, spacing or width Tolerance analysis available Mesh Angle (photo of unlit display) Model sub-pixels Mis-alignment translational translational & rotational 34
