touch screen capacitive works by the capacitance differential between the screen and your finger wherever there is difference in capacitance on the screen is where you are touching and the screen knows what function you are trying to do depending on what is displayed on the screen.

Is iPhone Capacitive or resistive touch screen?

Resistive touchscreens are better if you do not wish to use a stylus. When a stylus is used, capacitive touchscreens respond better. The decision on which is better comes from the applications being used and the preferences of the user.

Does a tablet PC come with a stylus?

Some do, the main one being the HTC Flyer. There is recent technology buy Samsung which is a small stylus that works on capacititive touch screens. Pretty much anything works on a resistive touch screen. But yes, anything that has a resistive touch screen usually come with a stylus. With capacitive touch screen tablets, no they do not have styluses.


Was the first devices with touch screen capabilities?

It's believed that the first ever touch screen was invented in 1965 by a man named E.A. Johnson in Malvern, United Kingdom. The device was a tablet with a capacitive touch screen. The resistive touch screen was created in 1970.


What is a capacitive touch screen?

In fact, the capacitive touch screen has a capacitive system. It is built with a layer that holds an electrical charge right on top of the glass panel. When a finger touches the screen, some of the charge escapes into the finger. The decrease in charge is measured in circuits which are usually located at the corners of the screen. And from the relative change in charge at each corner the computer can calculate what the point of contact was with the finger that released some of the charge. http://www.dinodirect.com/Cell-Phones/Cell-Phone-Accessories


How does the Touch Screen work on the Garmin?

The touch screen on a Garmin works by responding to pressure that is appllied to the screen.


Is it true that touch screen technology uses pressure to make the computer follow commands at a user's touch?

Touch screen technology primarily operates using one of two methods: resistive or capacitive. Resistive screens detect pressure applied to the surface, causing two conductive layers to make contact and register a touch. Capacitive screens, on the other hand, use the electrical properties of the human body to detect touch without requiring pressure; they sense changes in capacitance when a finger approaches the screen. Thus, while some touch screens do use pressure, many modern devices rely on capacitive technology instead.


Does Nokia x6 has a pen?

No, it doesn't require one due to the capacitive touch screen which is very sensitive like the iPhone's.
