Correct me if I am wrong
Sorry again, but we seem to end up on opposite sides
Stantum's technology sounds more like a hardware based touchscreen implementation since Stantum manufactures multi-touch touch screens.
From their site
Here is how Stantum-type touch-panels are manufactured:

1. Two thin and transparent (glass or plastic) overlays are covered with conductive material
2. The material is patterned in rows on one side and columns on the other, transforming the layers into a matrix of conductive tracks.
3. The two layers are assembled superposed, the conductive sides facing each other and separated by a spacing material (transparent dots, air, etc.).
