The Future Status of the Touch Industry
Given the financial challenges of the touch industry, can suppliers innovate their way to success? Will Force Touch (3D Touch) move the industry forward, or will it quickly become commoditized, leading more suppliers to exit the market? Can automotive save the touch market? Can the stylus/pencil reinvigorate the touch industry?
