The American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM) defines the switch as a momentary one in which at least one contact is made of a flexible substrate or on. The switches are generally made up of 4 layers with some may even require more. As each layer tend to function differently, so assembling & installing each layer requires careful handling.  The first layer of the switch is called the Graphic Interface.  It is visible to the naked eye and located at the topmost layer of the membrane switch.  The second layer is the Printed Circuit. This is the layer where electrical signals are sent to complete the action.  This layer is generally made up of conductors like polyimide substances or copper.  Each layer of the switch gets installed in a pressure-sensitive process as they have a massive impact on the overall working of the switch.

 As compared to the mechanical switches, membrane switch keyboards offer a softer feel.  As they are more sensitive, users can freely shift switches or change functions. You can complete task and change operations without exerting much effort. The switches are also water-proof and leak-proof.  This makes the technology idea; for businesses operating in harsh environments with harmful components. This technology has also been instrumental in aiding individuals with visual, cognitive, and physical disabilities.  The membrane switches are also found in other devices such as television, air conditioners, and remote controls.  The switches have lessened sealing difficulty, easy to clean, and a low profile.
