Ever wondered how a touch-sensitive screen works? The answer is capacitive sensing, which can detect the presence of your finger through the protective glass sheet and doesn't require any pressure.

The capacitive touch human-machine interface (HMI) is a critical aspect of modern electronics. It is how we interact with our devices, making it an integral part of wearables, smart home products and ...

Capacitive sensing is a contactless-sensing technique with numerous applications, ranging from proximity sensing (Fig. 1), gesture recognition, automotive rain sensors, and remote liquid-level sensing ...

The folks at Synaptics, a leading developer of human interface solutions for mobile computing, communications, and entertainment devices, say that their ClearTouch product portfolio ClearPad and ...

Infineon has augmented touch sensing and liquid level sensing it a new series of MCUs. Devices in the 4000T family have hardware and software to implement: enhanced capacitive touch sensing, inductive ...

I'm trying to understand why certain objects work (i.e. register a touch) on an iPhone screen, but others don't. From what I've read, the screen consists of two transparent conductive layers separated ...
