What Is A Touch Screen?

- May 20, 2022-

WIWO TOUCH defines a touchscreen as an electronic input device, usually layered on top of the visual display of an information processing system.







Touchscreens allow users to control the device through simple or multi-touch gestures. It enables users to interact directly with the displayed content rather than using a mouse, trackpad or other similar device.


Touchscreens are considered an innovative interface solution for many products. Common touchscreen applications include medical devices, consumer electronics, industrial control units, and point-of-sale systems.
