By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News - From Washington, D.C., NewsRx journali sts report that a patent application by the inventors COTRONEO, Francesco (Virle Piemonte, IT); FAGNANI, Lorenzo (Arluno, IT), filed on October 23, 2022, was ma de available online on April 25, 2024. No assignee for this patent application has been made. News editors obtained the following quote from the background information suppli ed by the inventors: “A resistive touch screen may be constructed of layers of f lexible plastic and glass coated with conductive material. When a user applies p ressure to the screen, resistance between the layers changes. This can be used t o identify where the user pressed. Instead of a difference in resistance, a capa citive touch screen uses a conductive touch of a human finger (or a specialized device) as input. When a capacitive touch screen is touched by the user, a small electrical charge is drawn to the point of contact. This allows the display to detect where it has received an input. The result is a display that can detect l ighter touches and with greater accuracy than a resistive touchscreen.”
