The Multi-Touch Display combines a projected capacitive matrix touchscreen offering ultra-fast, accurate, and precise 20-plus finger touch response, with a high-definition, wide viewing angle LCD to create a multi-touch display that meets or exceeds the m ost
demanding interactive applications The display has a solid base and a
highly-durable glass front surface with anti-stiction properties that maximizes
the user experience for simple or advanced gestures. The display works with thin gloves, responses to very light touch, and is fully compatible with Windows 7.
Leveragin g more than 25 years of capacitive sensing expertise, multi-touch " capabilities . Designed to push touch perform ance beyond traditional zoom , pinch, expand and rotate capabilities , this technology offers developers an interactiv e tool of 20 resolvable touches at less than 6 millisecon d (ms) point speed.
Responsiveness . Ultra-fast m ulti-touch capabilities developed help overcom e latency issues associate d with software filter- ing factors and/or slow touch response rate which can negatively impact the
user experience. In addition , PCT technology is more natural, intuitive, and responsive com pared to optically-based two touch systems.
Functionality. The highly-sophisticate d multi-touch display have been Window s Touch AQ qualified for 20 simultaneous touches, but are actually capable of delivering significantly m ore than 20 touches to accommodate multiple users or advanced multi-finger applications . These electronics also
include palm accommodation so the system will not miss or drop touches due to inadvertent or overwhelming touch events that affect the touch performance of optical-based two touch systems.
These next-generation electronics provide peace of mind for soft- ware developers and customers because their PCT hardware far exceeds the capabilities of current two touch technology, which may in turn lower total capital investment and cost-of-ownership.
For application s that re- quire a gloved hand, PCT technology works with multiple layers of thin niteri, l latex and vinyl gloves.
PCT’s full multi-touch technology works natively with the Window s 7 operating system and supports intuitive gestures and enabled advance
gestures. PCT is Windows Touch AQ (additional qualification) certified at more than 20 simultaneous touches. 3M also offers Window s 7/Vista/X P, and Linux drivers.
Second Surface Durability. The PCT's durable glass touch- screen surface has an anti-glare coating that allows these multi- touch displays to be placed in a wide range of lighting conditions without the noticeable reflection or "mirror look" of competitive touch screen displays.
Anti-Stiction Surface Feel. The multi-touch display contains a novel low surface energy coating that greatly reduces surface friction and allows user's fingers to effortlessly glide across the display for easy gesture functions.
With m ore than 10 years experience in industrial design and LCD selection for touch displays, has designed the Multi-touch Display with multi-touch interactivity in mind. From its high-definition/high - contrast, wide viewing angle LCD for multi-user and table top functionality, to its solid m etal base with 0-to-90 degree tilt, this display offers a robust and reliable LCD display to meet the most demanding multi-touch applications.
Viewing Angle. The display delivers brilliant im ages from nearly every angle with its ultra-wide viewing angle P- M VA display. This LCD dis- play has full 178 degree viewing in both vertical and horizontal directions, while m any com m only-used LCD’s only deliver a 120 degree viewing angle that can result in faded and washed out images. Having an ultra-wide viewing angle is an essential feature to help create an immersive user experience, regardless of how the display or where the user is positioned . As multiple users interact with the multi-touch display, especially in a horizontal or table top position, the ultra-wide viewing angle will help ensure that all users experience the same brilliant content.
High Definition. The display provides impressive picture quality with high-definition (HD) 1680 x 1050 resolution to help en- sure vibrant, true-to-life graphics, dynamic HD video content, crisp and clear images, and sharp text. The display's 16:10 wide-form at aspect ratio provides spacious screen real estate to maximize application usability. The DVI video input with HDCP (high -bandwidth digital content protection) delivers a high quality image and compatibility with copyright-protected high definition content.
Accuracy. The design of the projected capacitive matrix sensor has more than 3300 touch sensing points in close proximity, making it inherently linear, precise, and extremely accurate across the entire touchscreen. Corner and edge performance exceeds 99% accuracy, so whether drawing or activating a corner located button, the PCT system will deliver the performance expected by the user.
