Abstract
A touch sensor is presented. The touch sensor comprises a first electrode (); a second electrode (); a spacing layer () disposed between the first and second electrodes to separate the first and second electrodes; a first sealing layer () and a second sealing layer (), wherein the first and second electrodes and the spacing layer are disposed between the first and second sealing layers; wherein the first electrode, the second electrode, the spacing layer, the first sealing layer and the second sealing layer are bendable; a capacitive touch circuitry () arranged to sense a capacitive coupling between the first and second electrodes and to output a capacitive touch signal as a response to a change in the capacitive coupling; and a charge inducing circuitry () connected to the first and second electrodes arranged to independently induce electric charge to the first and second electrodes. A touch sensitive system comprising the touch sensor is also presented.
