Cirque Corporation is an American company which developed and commercialized the
first successful capacitive touchpad, now widely used in notebook computers.
Cirque develops and sells a variety of touch input products, both in OEM
(Original Equipment Manufacturer) and end-user retail form. Cirque was founded
in 1991 by George E. Gerpheide, PhD, and James L. O'Callaghan, to commercialize
the GlidePoint technology invented in the 1980s by Dr. Gerpheide.


HISTORY[EDIT]

For many years, Gerpheide and O'Callaghan traveled in an attempt to convince
makers of notebook computer to agree to use GlidePoint. Dr. Gerpheide recalls
'We would often drive to the COMDEX trade show in Las Vegas and stay in a seedy
hotel. There wasn't money for a booth at the show, so we carried our GlidePoint
prototypes around the convention center making demonstrations to whoever was
willing to watch. The early prototypes had a suitcase full of electronic
circuits. I knew they could be shrunk into an integrated circuit, but we didn't
have money for that either. So we were seeking a large leap of faith for a
manufacturer to agree to use the technology. It was even worse because at that
time most notebook computers were running DOS, which did not need a pointing
device!'

In April 1994, Cirque adapted GlidePoint into an integrated circuit and began
selling a retail GlidePoint touchpad. The first notebook computer containing
GlidePoint appeared soon thereafter. GlidePoint technology was licensed to Alps
Electric Corporation LTD, and ALPS launched touchpad products into the market.

In 2003, Cirque was acquired by Alps Electric as a wholly owned
subsidiary.[1][2] Cirque continues to function as an independent research and
technology development facility.


TECHNOLOGY[EDIT]

GlidePoint
GlidePoint was the first touchpad technology to be adopted in notebook computers
as a system pointing device, that is, performing the same function as a mouse.
Before that, system pointing was performed mostly using a small trackball
embedded in the notebook computer case, and other mechanical devices. After
GlidePoint's commercial introduction in April 1994, its popularity in notebook
computers steadily increased and Synaptics and Logitech also introduced
capacitive touchpad technologies. Presently, in 2009, both Synaptics and
GlidePoint touchpads are used widely, with approximately 90% of notebook
computers using touchpads.

GlidePoint was not the first touch input technology. For example, it was
pre-dated by resistive membrane input pads such as used in the Model 3155
Keyboard from Keytronic, Inc. Transparent resistive membrane technology is used
in PDAs such as the Palm Pilot, point-of-sale terminals, video poker machines,
and information kiosks and other touch screens. There are also prior capacitive
touch input pads in the patent literature. One, 'The UnMouse' was invented by
James Logan and marketed by his company Microtouch Systems, Inc. as a retail
plug-in mouse alternative product in the 1980s, but discontinued after a few
years.

GlidePoint technology senses the presence and absolute position of a finger on
the pad's surface using capacitive techniques. Because of the capacitive
technique, it does not require electrical contact with the finger, nor does it
require the finger to exert pressure on the pad. It measures very small
capacitance changes, due to a finger's proximity, among electrodes in a grid
buried beneath the insulating surface of the pad. From these measurements, it
can determine if a finger is touching the pad, and if so, the finger's absolute
position horizontally and vertically on the surface. Subtraction of a preceding
absolute position from the present absolute position yields the relative motion
of the finger during that time. This relative motion is the same as a mouse for
controlling position of a computer screen cursor.

GlideSensor
Cirque GlideSensor solutions are an extension of GlidePoint capacitive touch
technology. They are configured to allow the rapid design of non-conventional
touch input products. GlideSensor touch arrays may now be designed to take the
form of thin films, flexible surfaces and irregular shapes.

GlideSensor’s mixed-mode ASIC controller was designed to blend the performance
of GlidePoint with a low-voltage, low-power EEPROM programmable processor. The
result is a touch controller capable of being rapidly configured to solve the
most unusual input application.

Key GlideSensor technology features at a glance include:

 * Design sensors in circular, linear, flexible shapes
 * Programmable controller for custom solutions
 * Interfaced by SPI, I2C or PS2 for easy integration to microprocessor and
   PC-based systems
 * Efficient low-power management
 * Can sense through plastic materials of many colors
 * Ideal for handheld portable battery-operated products


PRODUCTS[EDIT]

Circle Trackpads have recently been featured in gaming controllers, but could
also be used in remotes, automotive, industrial, and medical devices. Cirque's
Circle Trackpad Development Kit is Arduino based and uses open sourced code on
Github so it's easy to setup and use for developing projects. There are also
step by step videos on YouTube for assembly and startup.VR Grip™ is a new
technology platform that was featured at CES 2018. VR Grip™ combines touch
technology with proximity sensing to give a more immersive experience in virtual
reality and augmented reality. You can find the VR Grip™ Dev Kit online with an
instructional video on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/user/CirqueCorp.
