CDS has expanded its range of PCAP touchscreens and explains here how they work and highlights the possible customisation.

Aug 2, 2021 · The PCAP touch screen can provide rich functions such as single-touch, dual-touch, rotation, zoom, flip, and multi-touch with up to 10 fingers. And unlike the resistive touch screen, the capacitive touch screen requires pressing pressure to make the touch screen work.

Mar 9, 2021 · How does PCAP work? PCAP uses a conductive grid between a glass protective cover and an LCD panel. When a finger touches the panel – which has an electrostatic charge applied across it – it causes a change to the grid’s electromagnetic field, which the display then recognises as a touch point.

What is PCAP (Projected Capacitive Touch Screen) Technology? PCAP is a type of capacitive touch technology that uses the electrical properties of the human body to detect touch. It allows for precise and multi-touch input, offering a highly responsive user interface.

The Protected Capacitive Touch Screen (PCAP) technology has significantly transformed the interactive display landscape. Its superior performance, durability, and multi-touch capability make it an excellent choice for various applications.

PCAP technology works by detecting changes in capacitance caused by a conductive object, such as a finger, touching the surface of the screen. A PCAP touchscreen is composed of a layer of glass with a conductive coating and a grid of electrodes that sense changes in capacitance.

Sep 30, 2019 · Also known as PCT or PCAP, projected capacitive is a form of touchscreen technology that’s used in smartphones, tablets, human machine interfaces (HMIs) and dozens of other touchscreen devices. It’s essentially the same as surface capacitive technology but with a few added upgrades.

What is a PCAP Touch Overlay? A PCAP (Projected Capacitive) touch overlay refers to a type of touch-sensitive overlay that can be applied to existing displays (such as LCD screens) to add touch functionality. PCAP touch overlays utilize a grid of electrodes etched onto a thin layer of glass or clear film that is placed over the display surface.

Oct 13, 2021 · Learn about projected capacitive (PCAP) touch sensor technology and its many real-world applications, from a leading PCAP solutions provider.

Oct 3, 2024 · PCAP touchscreens provide high levels of touch accuracy and transmission, ensuring fast and reliable user interaction. They also maintain their functionality even in the presence of dirt, dust, grease, and water.
