TouchScreen Article with source code for AVR microcontrollers
English
Do you want your new device to have a simple and intuitive interface? If the answer is YES, then a graphic LCD display with touch panel is the best choice because together they create a Touchscreen.
Deutsch
Soll Ihr aktuelles Projekt eine einfache und intuitive Schnittstelle haben? Wenn JA, dann ist ein grafi sches LC-Display mit Touchpanel die beste Lösung, denn beides zusammen ergibt einen Touchscreen.
Español
¿Quieres que tu último proyecto tenga un interfaz sencillo e intuitivo? Si la respuesta es SI, una pantalla LCD gráfi ca con un panel táctil es la mejor elección porque juntos constituyen una pantalla táctil.
Français
Voulez-vous une interface intuitive et simple pour votre nouveau projet ? Si la réponse est OUI, un LCD graphique avec dalle tactile est le meilleur choix, parce que ensembles ils forment un écran tactile.
Nederlands
Wilt u voor uw nieuwste project een eenvoudige en intuïtieve interface? Als het antwoord JA is, is een grafi sch lcd-scherm met aanraakpaneel de beste keuze, want samen vormen deze een aanraakscherm.
Srpsko-Hrvatski
Želite li da vaš novi uređaj ima jednostavan i intuitivan interfejs? Touchscreen u kombinaciji sa grafičkim displejom je idealna stvar za to. Sa malim brojem elektronskih komponenti napravićete veoma atraktivan uređaj koji će uz to biti i izuzetno jednostavan za korišćenje.
