Patent ID: 8736571

Claim:
An apparatus comprising: a touch sensor comprising a mesh of conductive material, wherein: the mesh comprises a plurality of first lines and a plurality of second lines of conductive material extending across a display, the first lines being substantially parallel to each other, the second lines being substantially parallel to each other, the display comprising a plurality of pixels that each comprise sub-pixels and dead space, each of the sub-pixels comprising a color element separated from adjacent sub-pixels by dead space, each of the pixels having a first pixel pitch along a first axis and a second pixel pitch along a second axis that is perpendicular to the first axis, the first pixel pitch being equal to a distance between corresponding features of two adjacent pixels along the first axis, the second pixel pitch being equal to a distance between corresponding features of two adjacent pixels along the second axis, each of the sub-pixels having a first sub-pixel pitch along the first axis, a first sub-pixel dimension along the first axis, and a second sub-pixel dimension along the second axis, the first sub-pixel pitch being equal to a distance between corresponding features of two adjacent sub-pixels along the first axis, the first sub-pixel dimension being equal to a distance between opposing edges of the color element of a sub-pixel along the first axis, the second sub-pixel dimension being equal to a distance between opposing edges of the color element of a sub-pixel along the second axis; the first lines extend across the display at a first angle relative to the first axis, wherein the first angle is within 1° of the arctangent of the ratio of the second sub-pixel dimension to the first pixel pitch; and the second lines extend across the display at a second angle relative to the first axis, wherein the second angle is different from the first angle and is within 1° of the arctangent of the ratio of the second pixel pitch to twice the first sub-pixel pitch; and one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media coupled to the touch sensor and embodying logic that is configured when executed to control the touch sensor.
