  With the increasing demand for touch devices, there are many different solutions available for touchscreen sensors. However, the two most conventional yet popular technologies - resistive and capacitive touchscreens still dominate the market. This is particularly due to the availability of enhanced and innovative solutions designed around these two technologies.      Resistive and Capacitive touchscreens are much different from each other - from operations to quality. For instance, resistive touchscreens are pressure-activated, whereas capacitive touch technology uses electrical properties of the human body as an electrical conductor to identify the touch point. When a finger is placed on the screen, it forms a capacitive coupling that either bleeds off some of the emitted radio frequency from the sensor’s surface in the case of “self-capacitive” operation or in the case of “mutual capacitive”, the finger touch couples an X and Y trace on the sensor allowing radi...
