A method of making a transparent touch-responsive capacitor apparatus includes providing a transparent conductor precursor structure including a transparent substrate, a first precursor material layer formed over the transparent substrate and a second precursor material layer formed on the first precursor material layer; forming a electrically connected first micro-wires in the first and second precursor material layers; forming electrically connected second micro-wires in a precursor material layer electrically connected to the first micro-wires; and wherein the height of at least a portion of the first micro-wires is greater than the height of at least a portion of the second micro-wires, and wherein the total area occupied by the first micro-wires is less than 15% of the first transparent conductor area and the total area occupied by the second micro-wires is less than 15% of the second transparent conductor area.
