It is a system that is designed to help users who have difficulty in using mouse or keyboard and is used with information kiosks, computer-based training devices etc. A touch screen panel is attached externally to the monitor that is connected to a serial or Universal Serial Bus (USB) port on a computer. Nowadays, monitors are also available with built-in touch screen technology. There are three types of touch screen technologies:
