There are three types of touchscreens: resistive, capacitive, and infrared. Resistive phones have two layers and when the top layer is pushed onto the bottom one an electric current senses this and calculates the location. Capacitive have currents coming from the corners and when changed it's calculated. Infrared use heat sensitivity and optics.
