A touch sensor, especially a capacitive touch sensor, has some surprisingly sophisticated electronics to detect a fingertip. Luckily, little capacitive touch sensor/switch modules are widely available ...

Capacitive touch sensors are entirely in the domain of DIY, requiring little more than a carefully-chosen conductive surface and a microcontroller. This led [John Phillips] to ask why not embed ...

A finger-heating effect has been observed on mutual capacitive touch sensors with plastic film overlay. The symptom is exhibited as serious sensitivity degradation when there is a greater than 10°C ...

Capacitive Touch Sensors The Capacitive Touch Sensor (CTS) is a gesture sensitive functional textile touch-pad interface for physical devices. The CTS is produced as a single piece of fabric requiring ...

Hi, I am trying to test a capacitive touch sensor. Specifically, I want to show that it registers a specific change in capacitance. Capacitance is defined as: C = A * Eo * Er / d A = Surface Area ...

We're used to tapping away at flat, glass-covered touchscreen devices like smartphones and tablets. A group of Stanford researchers have taken that capacitive touch concept and applied it to a ...

3M Touch Systems announces the commercial availability of a new polyester-based projected capacitive touch screen solution. MicroTouch Flex Capacitive Touch Sensors from 3M are ideal for high-volume ...

This raises a challenging problem: if a touch sensor is deformable, how does it know whether it is being touched or stretched? Mirza Saquib Sarwar, John Madden and colleagues at the University of ...
