Industrial standard displays need to perform under all circumstances – in extremes of weather and temperature, or environments where there is a high risk of damage. Traditionally, this has been fulfilled by resistive touch displays, which are essentially two transparent film layers, each with a conductive layer on the inside. To operate, these layers press against each other. However, this continual pressure can be problematic, as it means they lose their resistance over time and eventually wear out. Scratching and a lack of optical clarity is also an issue.
While not a new solution, PCAP (Projective Capacitive) touchscreen technology solves these problems, which is why so many industrial display manufacturers have made the switch. Not only does it provide far better optical clarity compared to its predecessor, but its projected capacitance creates entirely new avenues for user experience, as it brings with it the ability to double tap, zoom, rotate and flip, as well as offering accurate stylus response.
We have successfully implemented PCAP touch integration services into several of our high-end industrial projects and we are now fully offering ADP/AUO touch integration as part of the Avnet Displays custom PCAP portfolio.
AUO’s touch displays are particularly suited to industrial use in that they can be operated under all lighting conditions.
Of course, our team of Technical Sales experts are always on hand to assist in selecting and integrating the best possible solution for your product. As well as high industrial grade reliability and quality in product, partnering with Avnet Displays ensures stable production and longevity of supply for our customers.
If there’s one thing we are used to when we’re operating anything, it’s knobs and dials. We enjoy their familiar tactile experience when we control settings, like volume or menus. Somehow, a 100% touchscreen experience often isn’t enough and there is a real and very human satisfaction in the physical feedback when we ‘touch that dial’.
There are two words guaranteed to make us sigh loudly: cable management. Now, don’t misunderstand us, we know the unique satisfaction of well managed cables, but that feeling is entirely derived from the knowledge that they often need a lot of wrangling.
Our Avnet Displays come in a range of form-factors and our display-experts are on hand to guide you in the creation of display or touch solutions that meet your requirements. Find out how Avnet Displays can propel your product innovation and get in touch today.
