Touch Monitor

A touch monitor is a type of computer display screen that allows users to interact with the computer system by using touch based gestures. It is a sensitive screen that can detect touch input from fingers, a stylus or other objects and responds by executing the corresponding actions on the computer.

These monitors use a touch-sensitive layer on the top of the screen that can detect the touch and send the signal to the computer. Some touch monitors use capacitive touch technology, where a layer of conducting material is spread over the screen and responds to the electrical charges in a user's finger or stylus. Other types of touch technology include resistive touch, infrared touch, and acoustic pulse recognition.

Touch monitors are commonly used in kiosks, point of sale displays, digital signage, and other interactive applications. They are also increasingly used in personal computing applications such as gaming, drawing, and designing.
