In what ways can a user interact with a touch screen device?
A user interacts with the computer, tablet, smartphone or touch-controlled appliance by using hand gestures and fingertip movements to tap pictures, moving elements or type words on the screen. The screens are pressure-sensitive and can be used or manipulated using fingers or a stylus.
What is touch interaction?
Touch interactions require three things: A touch-sensitive display. The direct contact (or proximity to, if the display has proximity sensors and supports hover detection) of one or more fingers on that display. Movement of the touch contacts (or lack thereof, based on a time threshold).
What interface is touchscreen?
A touchscreen interface is a combined display/input device; the screen displays a graphical interface, and a user's physical touching of the screen is interpreted as an input or interaction with the interface, at the point of contact.
Which interface is optimised for mouse and touch gesture input?
A touchpad has both a multi-finger touch gesture input (touchscreen) feature and a refined pointing input (mouse) feature.
