Projected capacitive (PCAP) touchscreens are the latest iteration of the decades-long history of touch sensor technology. The use of PCAP touchscreens has increased with the proliferation of consumer electronics, advancements in medical devices, and more complex automotive applications, creating breakthrough specializations and use cases.
The conductive mesh of the PCAP screen detects changes in capacitance, which is the mechanism behind recording touches. Combining different bonding techniques, finishes and touch controller adjustments, the ability to customize PCAP touchscreens has resulted in an endless array of highly successful touch display products.
Resistive touch sensors register a touch when force is applied to the screen. When pressed against the screen, the finger creates an indent in the top membrane, which connects to the electrodes at the bottom of the stack. This change in resistance is how touches are recognized.
