This site will give information on how capacitive sensors work (Theory), how this is used to create various electrical instrumentation (Sensors), and how capacitive touch screens work (Screens). Please check out the Bibliography for the sources of this information. Site is to be navigated via the upper bank of buttons.

Humidity, Fuel Level, Strain, Pressure, Weight, Sound, Acceleration, Finger Prints. What do these seemingly random things all have in common?! (You can probably guess)

Using the human body as a conductor, your cellphone reads the distortion of the electrostatic field, measured in capacitance, in order for you to check Facebook...
