Market Definition
A resistive touchscreen is a type of touch-sensitive display made up of two flexible, electrically conductive layers separated by a small gap. When pressure is applied to the screen, the layers come into contact at the point of touch, allowing the device to detect the location of the touch. This technology works with various input methods, including fingers, styluses, and gloves.
