Touch sensors simulation with QuickField

Webinar recorded on Novemer 10, 2022

Touch sensors are modern interface solutions for many practical applications. They detect the position of the finger, or stylus, pointed to visual controls on the screen. These sensors are based on various physical principles, and in this webinar we will discuss capacitive and inductance sensors. Capacitive sensors use measurements of the electric charges and voltages on electrodes affected by presence of the operator finger or stylus in their vicinity, while the inductive sensor measures the change in the inductance of the coil due to finger pressure to the conductive foil near it. QuickField is widely used to simulate the touch sensors and today we will prove that it is a good tool for sensor design and analysis.
