5 Facts About Infrared (IR) Grid Touchscreens

5 Facts About Infrared (IR) Grid Touchscreens

There are many different technologies that power touchscreens. Some touchscreens are powered by capacitive technology, whereas others are powered by resistive touchscreen. A lesser-known touchscreen technology, however, is infrared (IR) grid. To learn more about IR...

Pros and Cons of Surface Capacitive Touchscreens

Surface capacitive is one of the world’s leading touchscreen technologies. Not to be confused with projected capacitive, it uses an electrostatic field to detect touch commands. With a surface capacitive touchscreen, a voltage is applied to the corners of the...

Self-Capacitive vs Mutual Capacitive Touchscreens

Touchscreen devices that measure a uniform electrostatic field to detect touch commands are known as capacitive touchscreens. During operation, they project a small electrostatic field across the display interface. When a conductive object, such as a bare finger,...

An Introduction to Projected Capacitive Touchscreen

Capacitive is the world’s leading touchscreen technology. Research shows that over nine in 10 of all touchscreens produced and shipped globally consist of capacitive touchscreens. There are several types of capacitive touchscreens, however, one of the most...
