The document describes different types of touch screen technologies. It discusses how resistive, capacitive, infrared, surface acoustic wave (SAW), and projected capacitive touchscreens work. It explains that resistive touchscreens use electrically conductive and resistive layers separated by spacers, while capacitive and SAW touchscreens rely on changes in electrical fields when touched. The document provides brief summaries of each technology's characteristics.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
2. How Does a Touchscreen Work?
A basic touchscreen has three main components:
1 Touch sensor;
2 Controller;
3 Software driver.
The touchscreen is an input device, so it needs to be
combined with a display and a PC or other device to
make a complete touch input system.
3. Touch Sensor
• A touch screen sensor is a clear glass panel with a touch
responsive surface. The touch sensor/panel is placed
over a display screen so that the responsive area of the
panel covers the viewable area of the video screen.
There are several different touch sensor technologies on
the market today, each using a different method to
detect touch input. The sensor generally has an
electrical current or signal going through it and touching
the screen can cause a voltage or signal change. This
change is used to determine the location of the touch to
the screen.
4. Controller
• The controller connects between the touch sensor and
the PC. It takes information from the touch sensor and
translates it into information that PC can understand.
The controller determines what type of
interface/connection you will need on the PC. Controllers
are available that can connect to a Serial/COM port (PC)
or to a USB port. Specialized controllers are also
available that work with DVD players and other devices.
5. Software Driver
• The driver allows the touchscreen and computer to work
together. It tells the computer's operating system how to
interpret the touch event information that is sent from the
controller. Most touch screen drivers today are a mouse-
emulation type driver. This makes touching the screen
as same as clicking your mouse at the same location on
the screen. This allows the touchscreen to work with
existing software and allows new applications to be
developed without the need for touchscreen specific
programming.
7. Resistive touchscreen
• Structure
Resistive touch screens
consist of a glass or
acrylic panel that is
coated with electrically
conductive and resistive
layers made with indium
tin oxide (ITO) .The thin
layers are separated by
invisible spacers.
9. 5-wire resistive touchscreen
• The construction of the panels are similar
with 4-wire technology, but for a 5-wire
touch screen all four bus bars are
connected to the lower, non-flexible layer
of the screen. The flexible layer is always
used as a sense layer to read the voltage
connection point to the bottom layer.
11. Resistive touchscreen
• Characters:
1. Cost effective solutions
2. Activated by a stylus, a finger or gloved hand
3. Not affected by dirt, dust, water, or light
4. 75%~85% clarify
5. resistive layers can be damaged by a very sharp object
12. Projected-capacitive touchscreen
• Structure
Projected capacitive
touchscreens have front and
back protective glass
providing optical and strength
enhancement options.
Its middle layer consists of a
laminated sensor grid of
micro-fine wires, and
optical enhancement options.
13. Projected-capacitive touchscreen
• During a touch, capacitance forms between the
finger and the sensor grid.The embedded serial
controller in the touchscreen calculates touch
location coordinates and transmits them to the
computer for processing.
14. Surface-capacitive touchscreen
• Structure
Surface capacitive technology consists of a
uniform conductive coating on a glass
panel. Electrodes around the panel’s edge
evenly distribute a low voltage across the
conductive layer, creating a uniform electric
field.
15. Surface-capacitive touchscreen
• Working principle
A human body is an electric conductor, so when you touch the screen
with a finger, a slight amount of current is drawn, creating a voltage
drop. The current respectively drifts to the electrodes on the four
corners. Theoretically, the amount of current that drifts through the four
electrodes should be proportional to the distance from the touch point to
the four corners. The controller precisely calculates the proportion of the
current passed through the four electrodes and figures out the X/Y
coordinate of a touch point.
16. Capacitive touchscreen
• Characters:
1. Durable and resistant to scratches for
demanding applications
2. Faster and more responsive
3. Immune to surface contaminants
4. Superior optical clarity, brighter display and
less surface reflection
5. Must be touched by finger, will not work with
any non-conductive input
17. Infrared touchscreen
• Infrared (IR) technology relies on the interruption of an
IR light grid in front of the display screen. The touch
frame contains a row of IR-light emitting diode (LEDs)
and photo transistors, each mounted on two opposite
sides to create a grid of invisible infrared light.
The IR controller sequentially pulses the LEDs to create
a grid of IR light beams. When a stylus, such as a finger,
enters the grid, it obstructs the beams. One or more
photo transistors from each axis detect the absence of
light and transmit signals that identifies the x and y
coordinates.
19. Infrared touchscreen
• Characters:
1. Clear as glass, improves reading ability
2. Most durable surface
20. SAW touchscreen
• Principle
Surface waves are readily absorbed
when a soft object such as a fingertip
touches the substrate.
SAW Touch Screen use pure glass
with transmitting and receiving
piezoelectric transducers for both the
X and Y axes.
The touch screen controller sends an
electrical signal to the transmitting
transducer, which converts the signal
into ultrasonic waves within the glass.
When you touch the screen, you
absorb a portion of the wave traveling
across it. The received signal is then
compared to the stored digital map,
the change recognized, and a
coordinate calculate.
22. SAW touchscreen
• Characters:
1. Durable glass construction
2. High optical clarity
3. Activated by a finger, gloved hand or soft
tip
4. Not completely sealable, can be affected
by large amounts of dirt, dust, and / or
water in the environment
23. Technology Capacitive SAW Infrared Resistive

techniques which allow computer users to
control graphical applications with several
fingers.

and MacBook Pro
