Abstract :
Recently, new touch panels are actively developed. And, the device with the touch panel is widespread. However, past touch panels cannot fold. Therefore, they can be set up only on the plane. Flexibility is needed for the touch panel to set up the touch panel in various places. Then, we propose the flexible touch panel sensor. This sensor is made from a resistance films and an insulation film and metallic foils. The place touched can be specified according to the current ratio that flows to the circuit when the person touches the sensor. This sensor can be installed on various places.
