ST. PAUL, Minn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–3M, 3M Innovative Properties Co. and Cinotop Electronics Co., Ltd. have reached a patent license agreement for use of 3M’s metal mesh technology.
Metal mesh conductor technology is widely used in the construction of projected capacitive touch sensors for consumer and commercial applications.
