TENSIONED TOUCH PANEL AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME

摘要

A method of assembling a touch panel including a support structure and a conductive membrane, the support structure having a conductive surface and a peripheral insulating spacer about the conductive surface. The conductive membrane overlies the peripheral insulating spacer separating the conductive membrane and the conductive surface thereby to define an air gap therebetween. The method comprises tensioning the conductive membrane prior to securing to the insulating spacer; and securing the tensioned conductive membrane to the insulating spacer.
