resistive touchscreen technology which supports input via fingertip,
gloved hand or stylus. The touchscreen is internally connected utilizing
one of the machines USB ports. Troll Touch says its innovative component integration technique does not alter the machine’s form factor in any way:
To the casual observer, the system does not appear to have been modified."
