A resistive touch display works by having two flexible layers (with a small gap between them).
When you press the screen, the layers physically touch at that point, and the system detects the location of the pressure.
It responds to pressure, not electricity, so you can use fingers, gloves, stylus, or any object.
Works with anything – Gloves, stylus, pens, even fingernails
Durable against liquids/dust – Good for messy or outdoor environments
More precise – Good for fine-point touch and handwriting
Cheaper – Lower cost compared to capacitive displays
Good in industrial and medical settings – Rugged and reliable
Lower clarity – Extra layers slightly reduce screen brightness and sharpness
No multi-touch – Mostly single-point touch only
Requires more pressure – Not as light or responsive as capacitive touch
Wears out faster – Physical pressure can wear down layers over time
Industrial control panels (factories, warehouses)
Medical devices (where gloves are used)
Outdoor kiosks and ATMs (in rain, dust, or extreme weather)
POS (Point of Sale) terminals
Older GPS devices and PDAs
