Question

Explain in details the working principle & touch screen. Give its application.

Answer 1

Capacitive:

A capacitive touch screen panel is coated with a material that stores electrical charges. The capacitive systems can transmit up to 90% of light from the monitor. It is divided into two categories. In Surface-capacitive technology only one side of the insulator is coated with a conducting layer.

Whenever a human finger touches the screen, conduction of electric charges occurs over the uncoated layer which results in the formation of dynamic capacitor. The controller then detects the position of touch by measuring the change in capacitance at the four corners of the screen.
