Abstract
The touch sensing technology that has paved way for a user friendly interaction with the components has become a more prominent option in the recent days due to its capability of providing a direct communication by just one touch and its compatibility with the users of all age and different level of skills. The touch technology can be single or multi and supported by variety of technologies, such as resistive, capacitive, acoustic and infrared. Among all the technologies the capacitive sensor are widely opted as they possess a low hysteresis, good repeatability and faster response time. The paper also puts forward adaptable multi-touch technology system for the touch sensitive devices, by proposing a flexible capacitive touch sensor to make touch sensitive devices more users friendly with the a highest degree of sensitivity to the touch and satisfactory performance for a broader range of applications with the heightened durability.
