How does a capacitive touchscreen work?
Capacitive touchscreens are made of a thin layer of conductive material, such as copper or indium tin oxide (ITO), printed on the underside of the display’s insulating outer layer. When a finger touches the screen, a small amount of charge is attracted to the point of contact, which effectively becomes a functioning capacitor. The resulting change in the electrostatic field is then measured to pinpoint where the contact occurred.

Types of capacitive touchscreens
There are two key types of capacitive touchscreen technology – projected and surface. Surface capacitance is the more basic of the two technologies, where only one side of the insulator is coated with a conductive layer. In contrast, projected capacitance utilizes a matrix of rows and columns of conductive material on one or two layers. This grid pattern enables excellent accuracy and multi-touch capabilities.

Advantages of capacitive touch screen technology
Currently, capacitive touchscreen technology offers a number of key advantages:

High touch sensitivity and accuracy
Multi-touch support
Sharp and vibrant images
Can be used without a stylus
Reliability – even cracked or punctured capacitive touchscreens often continue to work
The popularity of the technology provides a degree of future-proofing
