How Do Touchscreens Work?

The video explains the differences between resistive and capacitive touchscreens. Resistive touchscreens require physical pressure to work and are used in devices like credit card readers. They are affordable but not suitable for multi-touch. Capacitive touchscreens, used in most smartphones, rely on the conductive properties of the human body to detect touch. They are more accurate and can handle multiple touches but won't work with gloves unless they have conductive fibers.
