Types of LCD Touch Monitors

Resistive Touch Monitors:

Resistive monitors use a resistive membrane layer to detect touch. They are durable, inexpensive, and can be operated using a finger, stylus, or gloved hand. However, they are less sensitive and have a lower resolution than other types of touch monitors.

Capacitive Touch Monitors:

Capacitive Touch monitors use a conductive layer to detect touch. They are more sensitive than resistive touch monitors, offer better clarity, and support multi-touch gestures. However, they are more expensive and require a conductive object like a finger or stylus to operate.

Infrared Touch Monitors:

IR Touch monitors use infrared sensors to detect touch. They are durable, have a high resolution, and support multi-touch gestures. However, they are more expensive and require regular calibration.

Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) Touch Monitors:

SAW Touch monitors use ultrasonic waves to detect touch. They offer high clarity and support multi-touch gestures. However, they are more expensive and can be affected by dust and scratches.
