We permanently using touch screen devices, How do touch screens actually work?
Dear Diary R. Sulaiman ,
A touchscreen is a bit like an invisible keyboard glued to the front of your computer monitor. There are two layers of electrically conducting plastic separated by an insulating plastic membrane with holes in it. In fact, there's one hole underneath each key. When you press a key, you push the top conductor layer down towards the bottom layer so the two layers meet and touch through the hole. A current flows between the layers and the phone knows you've pressed a key. Little springy pieces of rubber underneath each key make them bounce back to their original position, breaking the circuit when you release them.

Touchscreen works by having the top of the display that you're touching come in contact with another electrically conductive layer underneath it. If you press on these types of displays with your finger, you can feel that the display bends a tiny bit. That's what makes it work. They use the pressure of your finger to create a change in the flow of electricity.

Surface sound waves technology works with surface sound waves technology. External pollutants that form on its surface.
Touch Screens work instantly with All programs - Just like a mouse . Simply touch the screen to respond, explore or create with your computer. Choose menu items, press buttons, move objects - simply by touching the screen. ADD-On touch screens are external frames with a clear see-through touch screen.
The model with noncircular orbits describes the current contact as a bit retarded, so the signal appears a small distance from the finger touch. I think some materials in touch-screens may work in that way, because the first smart-phone we tested exhibits that behaviour. A collecting name of materials for screens is graphen, but it is surely compensated not to display the distribution of current signal away from the finger tip.

Smart Touch Boards
Smart Boards are interactive whiteboards with a touch screen. ... Smart Boards are finding their way into classrooms, training sessions, conferences and board meetings. The environment allows instructors and presenters to control a presentation in a more flexible way than just sitting behind a computer and projector.

I have an answer. The touched area and the signal are described with Tti, Tove time invariant, ( our Tti proposed as a candidate for the Nobel Prize. The only I have heard, hitherto.)

I am puzzled.
Firstly, you are a lecturer in the field of electronics - and ask how a touchscreen works: a somewhat surprising question for one with your background.
Then you reply to your own question with a fairly complete answer.
What was the point of this question if you knew the answer?
And exactly what research are you conducting that led to this question?
