Touchscreen overlay
« on: January 09, 2015, 10:10:40 pm »
Does anyone know where to get reasonably priced touchscreen monitor overlays?  I'm building a kiosk project, and a 15" or 17" 4:3 touchscreen would be a perfect interface.  I already have LCD monitors this size, but I haven't been able to find resistive overlays for anything close to a reasonable price.  Smaller ones are very cheap, making me think they do exist.

Any ideas?

Does it have to be resistive and what price do you consider cheap/expensive?


This one is optical and $55

I suppose infrared would be fine too.  I'm not very fond of capacitive though; they never work well for me.

That one is $95, because of an outrageous $40 shipping charge.  About $50 total seems reasonable to me.
