Abstract
Finger touch-based interactions relying on real physical touch between the objects and the plane screens are inconvenient to be used in large scale displays, since the size of the screen is beyond the reachable range of the operators. In this work, we propose a novel optical interaction simultaneously integrated with remote optical touch and direct touched fingerprint sensing which includes three layers of transparent optical films embedded with sub-wavelength gratings. The proposed films were validated by the rigorous coupled-wave theory analysis and the coupling efficiency of each layer was optimized via the finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulation. The proposed smart transparent optical interaction system is believed to improve the performance of touching technologies which have significant applications in large screen teaching, meeting and gaming.
