This survey, completed in January 2010, will give the details of light sensing, voltage sensing, and charge sensing in-cell touch. How each technology works, who is working on it, advantages, disadvantages, and products in the market or coming to the market are all explained. The one-hour talk concludes with a comparison of the technologies, a market forecast, and a prediction of the overall impact of in-cell touch technologies.
