The remote control of my TV has two kinds of buttons. There are "normal" ones for the digits etc. which work by bringing a conductive material on the underside of the button in contact with the board of the remote control.- And then there are these round silver buttons in the centre for the remote. One pushes their curved surface down to bring it into contact with, presumably, a contact below (not visible from the outside).

- How is this later type of button called? I don't need a specific part name or number, just a general category name would be helpful.

What type of button is this on a remote control
