Touch Screens around Us

Smartphone

I have a smartphone. It is a really useful. Zooming by pinching, scrolling by flipping, these operations are cool. I love it.

The huge hit of smartphone made touch screen familiar to many people. Touchscreen allows users to operate mobile phones intuitively.

I had a mobile phone with keys (without a touch screen) before. I needed to memorize functions and corresponding keys for them.

Right. In case of smartphone with touch screen on the other hand, users can just operate by touching images on the screen. It is easy to understand how to operate without any memorization.

What kind of touch screen is used for smartphone?

A touch screen on smartphone needs to be high-resolution, low-power-consumption, and thin. Today, projected capacitive technology is most dominant in this application. Resistive technology is also used.
