touch screen
<hardware> An input device that allows user to interact with computer by
touching the display screen.
Often this uses beams of infrared light that are projected across the screen
surface. Interrupting the beams generates an electronic signal identifying the
location of the screen. Software interprets the signal and performs the required
operation.
