 Capacitive Touchscreens   
 

A capacitive touch screen consists of a glass panel with a capacitive (charge storing) material coating its surface. Circuits located at corners of the screen measure the capacitance of a person touching the overlay. Frequency changes are measured to determine the X and Y coordinates of the touch event.

Capacitive type touch screens are very durable, and have a high clarity. They are used in a wide range of applications, from restaurant and POS use to industrial controls and information kiosks.

 

Advantages

Disadvantages

  • High touch resolution
  • High image clarity
  • Not affected by dirt, grease, moisture.
  • Must be touched by finger, will not work with any non-conductive input
