What Is Touch Control?

Touch control is the use of a screen to provide input and feedback to users.touch control This type of interface is particularly important in automotive environments, where the ability to respond to user gestures with an intuitive UI is essential to driver comfort.

The touchscreen system consists of a resistive sensor (sometimes called a capacitive or capacitance-touchscreen) and a control microcontroller that processes the events reported by the sensor.touch control The microcontroller also interacts with the operating system, GUI framework and end-user application to provide dynamic controls and feedback.

Resistive Touchscreen

The resistive touchscreen panel consists of two transparent electrically conducting layers facing each other with a thin gap between them.touch control The bottom layer has conductive connections along its edges, and the top layer has a conductive coating with a pattern printed on it. When touched, the finger changes the voltage applied to the sensing electrodes on either side of the gap, which are connected to an internal power source and signal a change in state to the microcontroller. The microcontroller can detect the location and magnitude of the change, and determine whether a touch is being made.

Once a touch is detected, the sensor reports an event stream to the microcontroller via a standard hardware bus like I3C, I2C or SPI.touch control The microcontroller uses these events to determine the type of touch gesture and update the UI. Depending on the design of the touchscreen, other sensors and switches may be used to provide additional feedback.

Infrared-Based Touchscreens

There are several different infrared-based touchscreen technologies.touch control In one, frustrated total internal reflection causes leakage of infrared light from the back of the display, peaks at points of maximum pressure and can be sensed with cameras at the bottom of the screen. Other approaches use a camera to capture infrared emissions from the touch point and the surrounding environment, which is then translated into an equivalent digital signal for the controller to interpret.

A touchscreen can be damaged by scratches or dust on the surface, so it is important to select a durable material for your display or control panel. The most common choices are glass and plastic, but special materials for high-performance applications, such as polycarbonate, are available.

Touch Screen Design Considerations

It is important to consider the positioning of a gamer's thumbs when designing a touchscreen for gaming consoles. Thumbs typically cover the top center of the screen, so any buttons or controls that require a player to press in that area need to take this into account. If a button is placed in this area, players will need to make a deliberate and forceful action to reach it, making it less likely that they will accidentally hit it.

With the right design, a touch panel can be built to resist harsh conditions. The key is selecting the right material, which must be able to withstand vibrations and other effects from the mechanical structure of the vehicle, as well as from environmental contaminants. KURZ offers a wide range of options, including deceptively realistic-looking marble, wood and carbon, as well as a variety of real metal coatings, including indium-based metallization and vibrant colors with different gloss levels.
