  • TOUCH SCREEN AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME
    Publication number: 20110273395
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a touch screen and a method for controlling the same. The touch screen includes: two sheets of transparent substrates; transparent electrodes each formed on one surface of the two sheets of transparent substrates and sensing the change in capacitance at the time of a user input; and a spacer bonding one surface of the two sheets of transparent substrates to each other, wherein the coordinates of the input are measured by detecting the change in capacitance sensed by the transparent electrodes and lowering sensitivity when the capacitance becomes larger. The embodiments provide the touch screen that can accurately measure the coordinates by controlling the sensitivity based on the change in capacitance, and the method for controlling the same.
