Touchscreens

from Nerd Adjacent · host Chris Rouman

Touchscreens feel like modern magic, but the tech has a surprisingly long history—starting with clunky pressure-based screens and evolving into the sleek, responsive glass we tap today. This episode traces how we got from early experiments to the multitouch world of smartphones, tablets, and cars that bury the volume control three menus deep. ___ Episode Music by Eric Lund.
