For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Touchpads operate in one of several ways, including capacitive sensing and conductance sensing. The most common technology used as of 2010[update] entails sensing the capacitative virtual ground effect of a finger, or the capacitance between sensors. Capacitance-based touchpads will not sense the tip of a pencil or other similar implement. Gloved fingers may also be problematic.
