Capacitive switches are built to perform in many situations, which inevitably make the user experience better and safer.
Capacitive touch technology and healthcare
The year 2020 has seen its share of demand in healthcare equipment with capacitive switch keypads. Why? The healthcare system is going digital, the world population is aging, and the Covid-19 pandemic continues to be widespread.
