What is the difference between tft display and touchscreen display?

Answer:

Touch Screen is simply an electronic digital display that can detect touch by human or stylus to allow direct interaction with what is displayed without using a secondary device such as a keyboard or mouse. TFT (Thin Film Translator) is technology for liquid crystal display (LCD) screens, functioning in a similar way but with far wider applications with multiple applications.
