TALK FLOW • INTRODUCTION • HISTORY • FUNCTIONS • WORKING • TOUCH SCREEN TECHNOLOGY • APPLICATION • CONCLUSION
INTRODUCTION • A touch screen is a computer display screen that is sensitive to human touch, allowing a user to interact with the computer by touching pictures or words on the screen. • A touch screen is an input device that allows users to operate a PC by simply touchingthe display screen which has a sensitive glass overlay placed on it . • A touch screen accepts direct onscreeninputs.
HISTORY • In 1971, the first "touch sensor" was developed by Doctor Sam Hurst (founder of Elographics) while he was an instructor at the University of Kentucky. • The University of Kentucky Research Foundation named it as “Elograph”. • The "Elograph" was not transparent like modern touch screens. • In 1974, the first true touch screen incorporating a transparent surface came.
HOW DOES A TOUCHSCREEN WORK? A basic touch screen has three main components: • touch sensor • controller • software driver
1.TOUCH SENSOR • A touch screen sensor is a clear glass panel with a touch responsive surface which is placed over a display screen. • The sensor generally has an electrical current or signal going through it and touching the screen causes a voltage or signal change. This voltage change is used to determine the location of the touch to the screen.
2.CONTROLLER • The controller is a small PC card that connects between the touch sensor and the PC. • It takes information from the touch sensor and translates it into information that PC can understand.
3.SOFTWARE DRIVER • The driver is a software that allows the touch screen and computer to work together. • It tells the operating system how to interpret the touch event information that is sent from the controller. • Most touch screen drivers today are mouse-emulation type drivers. This makes touching the screen the same as clicking your mouse at the same location on the screen.
DIFFERENT TOUCH SCREEN TECHNOLOGIES • RESISTIVE • CAPACITIVE • SURFACE WAVE • INFRARED • DISPERSIVE SIGNAL TECHNOLOGY
RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN TECHNOLOGY • Polyester Film . • Top Resistive Layer. • Conductive Transparent Metal Coating. • Bottom Resistive Layer . • Insulating Dots . • Glass Substrate
Contd. • Pressing the flexible top sheet creates electrical contact with the coating on the glass. • The touch screen controller gets the alternating voltages between the two layers and converts them into the digital X and Y coordinates of the activated area.
In case of measurement of X coordinate ,the top sheet caries a voltage gradient generated by applying a voltage between the electrodes of top sheet .the bottom sheet serve as a slider in a linear potentiometer .The X co-ordinate is estimated considering the equivalent resistance between the touch point to each linear electrode in top sheet.
Implementation X1=k(Vrtl+Vrtr+Voffset) X2=k(Vrtl+Voffset) X3=k Voffset The x-coordinate is calaulated from: X=(X2-X3)/(X1-X3) similarly; Y=(Y2-Y1)/(Y1-Y3)
Advantages of Resistive Technology • Can be activated with any device • Low cost solution • Low power consumption
Disadvantages of Resistive Technology • Poor durability • Lower resolution • Less Accuracy
APPLICATIONS • Public Information Displays tourism displays, trade show displays • Customer Self-Service stores, restaurants, transportation hubs, ATM and airline e-ticket terminals. • And many more uses... computerized gaming, student registration systems, multimedia software, financial and scientific applications, and more.
CONCLUSION • Touchscreens, touch panels or touchscreen panels are display overlays which have the ability to display and receive information on the same screen. • Touchscreens also have assisted in recent changes in the PDAs, making these devices more usable.
