This is completely wrong. What you describe is a resistive touch screen.
Since the KT touch screen is an IR "touch" screen you only have to break the IR barrier in front of the screen. The IR transmitters/receivers are in the frame in front of the actual screen.
Try it. Even if you do not press but just lightly touch the screen it will register a touch.
