They can also be attached to computers or, as terminals, to networks. Touchscreens are common in devices such as game consoles, all-in-one computers, tablet computers, and smartphones. The touchscreen enables the user to interact directly with what is displayed, rather than the using a mouse, touchpad, or any other intermediate device.
The user can use the touchscreen to react to what is displayed and to control how it is displayed. Some touchscreens can also detect objects such as a stylus or ordinary or specially coated gloves.
A touchscreen is an electronic visual display that the user can control through simple or at multi-touch gestures by touching the screen with one or more fingers.
