How does it works: Capacitive
A capacitive touchscreen consists of a glass
panel with a capacitive (charge storing)
material coating its surface. Circuits located at
the corners of the screen measure the
capacitance of a person touching the overlay.
Frequency changes are measured to
determine the X and Y coordinates of the
touch command. The touchscreen controller
sends data via serial port to the host
computer and emulates a mouse.

LVDT
Linear Variable Differential Transformer
Taken from
http://www.pages.drexel.edu/~pyo22/mem351-2004/lecture04/pp062-073lvdt.pdf
An LVDT is used as a sensitive displacement sensor: for example, in a cardiac assist device or a basic research project to study displacement produced by a contracting muscle.

2.6.1: Piezoelectric Sensors
What is piezoelectricity ?
Strain causes a redistribution of charges and results in a net electric dipole (a dipole is kind of a battery!)
A piezoelectric material produces voltage by distributing charge (under mechanical strain/stress)
Discovered in 1880 by Pierre Curie in quartz crystals. The greek word “piezein”, which means “to press”Examples --- Quartz, Barium titanate, tourmaline
