INTRODUCING THE TECHNOLOGY
A touch screen is an input device that allows users tooperate a PC by simply touching the display screen.
The display screen has a sensitive glass overlay placed on
it and we could give the desired input by touching it.
A touch screen is based on CRT (Cathode Ray Tube)technology, that accepts direct onscreen input.
The ability for direct onscreen input is facilitated by anexternal (light pen) or an internal device (touch overlayand controller) ..

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.

The inside surface of each of the two layers is coated with
a transparent metal oxide coating Pressing the flexible top sheet creates electrical contact
between the resistive layers, producing a switch closing in
