Three Must-Follow Touch Screen Panel Design Principles

With the continuous advancement of technology, today's touch screen panel products are used in various environments more than ever before. But choosing the right touch screen solution is as challenging as designing and developing the product itself. Some engineers may face the challenge of how to design custom touch screens panel , because they not only need to design a suitable solution, but also have a beautiful appearance and can meet consumer expectations. Designing a touch screen that is too confusing, you will probably face consumers or users will not use the product. But if you design a touch screen panel that is too simple, consumers think your product is not so perfect. So this requires engineers to highlight elements to attract and keep users' attention, and colleagues to ensure that the interface is intuitive and easy to use. This is a daunting challenge for engineers to choose what kind of touch screen solution, which is why we have to look at these 3 touch screen panel design principles that must be followed:

Consider the application of the product

Consider the cost of the touch screen panel solution

Consider the type of touch screen

1. Consider The Application Of The Product

A beautiful touch screen plus a lot of functions are nothing if they are just for good-looking and functional. Because we all know that truly great designers never gild Lily-on the contrary, they focus on the solution elements that really bring value. Therefore, we engineering designers must be the most important problem solvers. Every element of your design should have a purpose to have a positive impact on the overall product and provide solutions for users, ensuring that all your elements can play a key role. Always ask yourself or your team why each element is included in the design. If your answer is not very clear, then your design is not focused on providing valuable solutions. For example, the touch screen requirement sent by some customers is that I need to bring water, wear gloves to touch, and also need anti-glare, anti-reflection and anti-fingerprint effects. I very much agree that some customers want to achieve the ultimate function of their products to attract their consumers more. But we also have to consider practicality. For example, some customers' products are used indoors and used in environments where there is no strong light, but they require anti-glare and anti-reflection effects. In my opinion, these functions are unnecessary. In the touch screen function, why do you need to anti-glare and anti-reflection? Because it is used outdoors or in some medical equipment under strong light, anti-glare and anti-reflection effects are needed so that the contents of the touch screen can be seen more clearly. Therefore, we should analyze specific issues in detail. You have to consider which functions your main consumer groups and main application environments will use before you do the corresponding functions, rather than doing all of these functions. Even this may increase the cost of your touch screen.

2. Consider The Cost Of the Touch Screen Panel Solution

How to choose a touch screen panel chip solution is one of the most important steps, because it affects the total price of the touch screen. Therefore, we should select and design touch screen chip solutions based on the application environment of the touch screen and the expected annual usage of the product. For example, if your product application is a consumer touch screen, then there is no need to use the top industrial chip solution, because we all know that the price of the general industrial chip solution is more expensive, because it requires a longer life and a touch screen The stability of the effect should also be stronger. Although the use of industrial chip touch screens is definitely very good, but it may be expensive to make your product sales poor. So we still have to consider how to choose a cost-effective touch screen solution according to the specific application environment.

3. Consider The Type Of Touch Screen

Touch screens include many types, such as resistive screens, capacitive screens, surface screens, acoustic wave screens, infrared screens, etc. We should choose the appropriate touch screen type based on the application environment of the product. Because they have their own advantages and disadvantages. You should choose a touch screen type that is more suitable for your product environment. Instead of the most expensive one, the best choice is the touch screen type. It is still necessary to analyze concretely based on specific issues.
