Resistive screens are touch-sensitive displays that detect touch through pressure applied to the screen surface. They consist of two flexible layers separated by a small gap. When pressure is applied, the layers make contact, registering the touch. This technology is commonly used in devices like smartphones, tablets, and point-of-sale systems. These screens are known for their durability and cost-effectiveness. They can be operated with various objects, including fingers, styluses, or gloves, making them versatile in different environments. However, resistive screens typically offer lower clarity and responsiveness compared to capacitive screens, which rely on electrical conductivity.
