As a leading provider of industrial visualization systems, Avnet Displays is implementing complete PCAP glass touch solutions using a new technology to achieve bigger sizes, better optical and EMI performance, along with lower sheet resistance.

Colour TFT (Thin Film Transistor) displays are everywhere. From our beloved phones and wearables to billboards, dashboards, medical equipment and even coffee machines. TFTs are essential to the clear and high-resolution view you expect of any digital display. But as these examples show, the places and spaces in which you might find one vary greatly, and each respective application will have a slightly different operational requirement from its TFT.

Touch-responsive surfaces are as ubiquitous as they are taken for granted but, for us, their sensors are the immediate power behind an effective display solution. We work with companies all over the world, supplying sensors and custom integrating them into display solutions for some of the most challenging industries you can imagine (and some you probably can’t!). So, we wanted to take some time talk about the two main types of touch sensors we offer.
