#Nanostructure Changes Colour When Finger Comes Near Touchscreens suffer from mechanical wear over time and are a transmission path for bacteria
What they really want is to use it in touchless displays. ecause these sensors react in a very local manner to any increase in moisture,
it is quite conceivable that this sort of material with moisture-dependent properties could also be used for touchless displays
and monitors, said Ganter. Touchless screens of this kind would require nothing more than a finger to get near the display to change their electrical or optical properties and with them the input signal at a specific point on the display.
Taking phosphatoantimonate nanosheets as their basis the Stuttgart scientists then developed a photonic nanostructure which reacts to the moisture by changing colour. f this was built into a monitor,
