Posted On 09.06.2024

This Can Result In Unwanted Actions Being Taken On The Device, Such As Apps Being Opened Or Closed, And Text Being Typed.


The Term "Ghost Touch" Is Taken Because The Inputs Appear To Come From A "Ghost" Or Unseen Source, Rather Than From The User Intentionally Touching The Screen. It Can Be Caused By A Variety Of Factors, Including, Grounding Issues, Software Glitches, Hardware Malfunctions, Or Environmental Factors Such As Static Electricity Or Moisture.


If You'Re Worried About Any Type Of Interference, It'S Recommended That You Disassemble The Touchscreen Panel Or Monitor And Conduct Another Test In A More Simplistic Environment. If You'Re Able To Move Or Keep Distance Yourself From The Source Of Interference, It'S A Simple Problem To Resolve. However, If You'Re Unable To Change Your Environment, It'S Best To Contact Your Touchscreen Solution Partner, To See If There Are Any Solutions Available To Improve The Anti-Interference Performance.
