Calibrate the touch screen of 4 inch 800x480 HDMI Display for Raspberry Pi 

Actually, the touch is calibrated very well after driver installed.

To calibrate the touch screen:

Visit: http://www.lcdwiki.com/4inch_HDMI_Display-C,

download How_to_calibrate_the_resistance_touch_screen-V1.2 below Download Resources,

follow the steps.

With driver installed,

Enter the commands in Terminal:

$ cd LCD-show/

$ sudo dpkg -i -B xinput-calibrator_0.7.5-1_armhf.deb

Execute the touch calibration command:

$ DISPLAY=:0.0 xinput_calibrator

Touch the four calibration points with the touch pen

New touch parameters will be displayed after calibration

Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf,

update with new touch parameters.

$ sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf

Save and exit:

- Ctrl-X

- Y

- Enter

$ sudo reboot

Next:
~ Install Virtual Keyboard(matchbox-keyboard) on Raspberry Pi

~ Remote access Raspberry Pi using xrdp/Microsoft Remote Desktop

~ Record screen action on Raspberry Pi, SimpleScreenRecorder

~ Raspberry Pi link to Bluetooth 5.0 headphones, using Blueman

Remark@2021-07-15:

By default without installing driver, the screen will display in vertical (portrait). With Raspberry Pi OS Screen Configuration Orientation feature, I can change screen direction.

For sure, without installing driver, it cannot detect touch. Normally I use wireless keyboard with mouse pad, so no need touch function.

Raspberry Pi 7" Touchscreen Display
The 7” Touchscreen Monitor for Raspberry Pi gives users the ability to create all-in-one, integrated projects such as tablets, infotainment systems and embedded projects. The 800 x 480 display connects via an adapter board which handles power and signal conversion. Only two connections to the Pi are required; power from the Pi’s GPIO port and a ribbon cable that connects to the DSI port present on all Raspberry Pi’s.  Touchscreen drivers with support for 10-finger touch and an on-screen keyboard will be integrated into the latest Raspbian OS for full functionality without a physical keyboard or mouse.

• Turn your Raspberry Pi into a touch screen tablet, infotainment system, or standalone device.
• Truly Interactive - the latest software drivers will support a virtual ‘on screen’ keyboard, so there is no need to plug in a keyboard and mouse.
• Make your own ‘Internet of Things’ (IoT) devices including a visual display. Simply connect your Raspberry Pi, develop a Python script to interact with the display, and you’re ready to create your own home automation devices with touch screen capability.
• A range of educational software and programs available on the Raspberry Pi will be touch enabled, making learning and programming easier on the Raspberry Pi.

4.3 inch LCD Display with Composite Input for Raspberry Pi

4.3" LCD Display with Composite Input for Raspberry Pi

Yes, this is an adorable miniature television! The visible display measures only 4.3" diagonal, the TFT comes with a NTSC/PAL driver board.The display is very easy to use - simply connect 4.5-15VDC to the red and black wires, then connect a composite video source to the yellow and black wire. Voila, a television display! There's a little button to adjust the LED backlight brightness (5 levels) - there is no other adjustment available but we found that the color and contrast look great right out of the box. To demonstrate it, photos were taken with the display connected to a Raspberry Pi, but it will also work connected to any analog composite-video output such as a YBox or Propeller w/Video out. It will not work with a device that only outputs VGA, HDMI or any other digital video signal. A power adapter is not included you will want a 9VDC 1 Amp or 12VDC 1 Amp adapter, part #82-11321 recommended). Even though the display specifies 12VDC it works from 5V to 12V DC without problems. Please note, these miniature displays are very delicate and require care to avoid ripping the delicate flex connector. These are best used by electronics geeks who have experience and are comfortable working with delicate electronic components. WE CANNOT REPLACE DAMAGED DISPLAYS if you are not careful and rip the flex connector!

I found demo videos from Youtube about it:

from the Youtube video owner: 7" raspberry pi touchscreen tft hdmi 720p - I bought it on ebay from chinatobby2011 for only 45 EUR. The touch panel is called AT070TN92 V.5 and the HDMI AD Board is called VS-TY2662-V1 or PCB800099. I have made a screenshot from the ebay auction: goo.gl / hd9Nt The auction title is: "HDMI+VGA+2AV Driver board+7inch 800*480 AT070TN92 V.5 Lcd with touch panel"

The owner's another video to callibrate it, but it looks very well. I had to recompile the kernel of raspbian release 3.2.27. Raspbian already has an eGalax usbtouchscreen.ko driver module: http://goo.gl/n69Q1 which works with my 45 EUR touch panel (AT070TN92 V.5) + HDMI AD Board (PCB800099)
