Touchsensors
A touch sensor is a type of equipment that captures and records physical touch or embrace on a device and/or object. It is a crucial part of devices that we have come to rely on, such as control panels e.g. for white goods or industry, HMI interfaces, bounce-free buttons, and many other interactive devices. Also known as tactile sensors, it’s a small, simple, low-cost sensor made to replace old mechanical switches we seen in the past.
A touch sensor works like a switch, where when there’s contact, touch, or pressure on the surface of a touch sensor, it opens up an electrical circuit and allows currents to flow through it.
Types of touch sensor:
- Capacitive touch sensor
- Resistive touch sensor
- Infrared touch sensor
- Surface acoustic wave (SAW) touch sensor
- Inductive touch sensor
