14.3 14.3 Touch sensor
Principle of operation
The touch device variant operates with an analog-resistive touch sensor. An electrical field is
generated by electrodes along the edge of the sensor. These electrodes are arranged on a
specific grid on the active surface.

Functional restrictions caused by deformation of the field lines
A "scalloping effect" occurs at the edge of the display near the electrodes on all analog-
resistive touch sensors due to its intrinsic design. This leads to a deformation of the field
lines.
