There are bunches of ways to make your own touchpanels, running the gamut from cheap to insanely expensive and from delicate to unbreakable. I will cover the different technologies that can be used, which applications they are most suited for, and their drawbacks and advantages. I will be drawing on my experience creating museum exhibits and in the AV industry.
