Touchscreen engineer here. There is no such thing as an 'off-the-shelf' capacitive touchscreen.
There is always custom engineering to match the customer's housing and bezel, tune the analog characteristics to the electrical environment, and handle other requests like a safer/thicker cover glass, optical bonding to the LCD, and low friction or hydro/oleophobic coatings on the surface.
- jessaustin 5y agoNo one is denigrating this work, but it's obviously easier to consistently get right than the fiddly processes GP describes. There is a rectangle of a particular size, and various substances are applied to it. You didn't mention UI design, which is the worst aspect of this technology.
