Abstract
An integrated input apparatus includes a panel, a sensing layer, a backlight layer, and a bottom layer. The panel includes a plurality of hot key patterns, a typing key group pattern, a cursor control pattern, and a response key pattern (a left key and a right key). When anyone of the hot key patterns, the typing key group pattern, the cursor control pattern, or the response key pattern is touched, a sensing control signal is sensed by the sensing layer and sent to a computer host for further processing.
