Touchscreens, i.e. touch-sensitive screens, offer numerous possibilities for convenient operation of devices. However, there is no touch technology that can be used universally for every application. Each technology has advantages and disadvantages, so it is important to know and understand the key technologies in order to implement an optimal solution.
Capacitive keyboards are characterized by an extremely robust and visually appealing design. In contrast to resistive touchscreens, a capacitive touch also works without pressure. You only need to touch it to interact. The surface can be made of glass or plastic. Individual buttons, but also sliders and dials are available for operation. Keyboards with a glass surface can be produced in many different versions.
On the one hand, the choice of glass is paramount:
Secondly, the processing must be selected:
Your advantages:
Resistive touchscreens work via pressure gestures. It does not matter whether you press with your whole finger, your fingernail or a pen. If you press the two layers under DC voltage together, you can measure the voltage at the edges of the upper polyester film and thus obtain the position of the pressure point.
