IR technology is cost-effective and highly scalable, making it ideal for large interactive whiteboards and displays in education and conference rooms. Because no physical pressure is required, it offers smooth operation with a finger, stylus or other object. This facilitates collaboration and large-format interactive presentations.
Due to its durability and reliability, infrared technology is well suited for public information kiosks and Point-of-Sale (POS) systems. The screen surface is often a tempered glass, making it highly resistant to scratches, wear and tear and vandalism in high-traffic commercial environments. This ensures a long service life.
Infrared touchscreens can be operated with gloves, a crucial feature in many industrial environments. Rugged construction and relative immunity to surface contaminants such as dust or liquids ensure reliable operation in demanding production conditions.
The technology is suitable for medical applications because the glass surface is completely sealed and easy to disinfect. In addition, operation with surgical gloves is effortless, ensuring hygiene and usability in clinical settings or laboratories.
Because no conductive or sensor layer is required on the glass surface, infrared technology offers very high light transmission. This results in excellent image quality with maximum brightness and color fidelity. Viewing is not affected by an additional layer, ensuring a clear and sharp image.
An IR touchscreen detects any interruption of light rays, allowing it to be operated with bare fingers, gloves, a stylus or virtually any other opaque object. No pressure or electrical guidance is required, making for a very versatile and approachable touch experience.
The screen surface is usually a layer of pure, often tempered, glass. This makes it extremely durable and highly resistant to scratches and chemicals. This gives the technology a long lifespan, even when used intensively in public or industrial applications.
Infrared technology supports standard multi-touch, often with 10 to 40 simultaneous touch points, enabling complex interactions. In addition, the technology is relatively inexpensive to produce for medium to very large sizes compared to other touch technologies such as PCAP.
At Dytos, we understand that each industry has specific requirements for touch solutions. That's why we offer a wide range of products and services designed to meet these diverse needs.
