Capacitive touch sensors are based on the electrical capacitance of the human body. When, for example, a finger comes close to the sensor, it creates a capacitance to Earth with a value of 30 to 100 ...

The latest generation of handheld personal consumer electronic devices, with their highly sensitive and intuitive user interfaces based around projected capacitive (p-cap) touchscreens, have begun to ...

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 multi-touch ClearPad 3000 series of capacitive touch sensors brings high-resolution capacitive touchscreens with basic gesture capability to mobile handsets and other handheld devices. With the ...

The sensors provide a reliable alternative to mechanical switches that may have a high rate of wear and tear. The sensors use capacitive technology for start and stop actuation, and are available with ...

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 only two electrodes to ...

Those tiny switches inside your mouse may be rated for 50 million clicks or more, but your fingers will likely wear out much sooner than that. Trust us — mouse arm and/or hand fatigue is no fun at all ...

ON Semiconductor has introduced a highly integrated capacitance-to-digital converter IC that will speed the implementation and reduce the component count of electrostatic capacitance touch sensor ...

Most projects that interface with the real world need some sort of input device. Obviously this article is being written from a standardized “human interface device” but when the computers become ...
