Detailed explanation-1: -Which of the following is the most common input method for mobile devices? Most mobile devices today use capacitive touch screens, which allow the user to use their finger as an input device.
Detailed explanation-2: -Touchscreens are common in devices such as smartphones, handheld game consoles, personal computers, electronic voting machines, automated teller machines and point-of-sale (POS) systems. They can also be attached to computers or, as terminals, to networks.
Detailed explanation-3: -Capacitive touch screens are control displays that utilise the electrical properties of the human body as input. When a finger (or specialised input device, such as stylus) comes in contact with the display it detects when and where on the display the user touches it.
Detailed explanation-4: -If you want increased screen contrast and clarity, capacitive touch screens are the preferred option over resistive screens, which have more reflections due to their number of layers. Capacitive screens are also far more sensitive and can work with multi-point inputs, known as ‘multi-touch’.
