Abstract

See full text

Digitizer tablet and digitizer tablet structure having an illuminable working surface are disclosed. A space between a top translucent layer having the working surface and a source of light is provided so as to eliminate or minimize undesirable lighting effects at the working surface. In the preferred embodiments, the space is an air gap (e.g. 0.060-0.250 inch) immediately adjacent the top translucent layer. The air gap is formed by transparent optical fibers or solid glass or acrylic rods. Back-lighted, translucent, back-lightable (without light source) and surface lighted digitizer tablet embodiments are described.
