Zytronic Provide Robust Touch Technology Solution for Outdoor Digital Bulletin Board
Zytronic has applied the power of its innovative Projected Capacitive Technology (PCT™) with the inclusion of durable ZYBRID® touch sensor for Prague-based kiosk producer Power Products.
The 1720mm x 780mm x 224mm interactive units have a robust stainless steel/aluminium construction and a large format display area, which consists of four 22-inch (558.8 mm) high brightness LCD’s with built-in touchscreen functionality, supplied by a single large format sensor.
The units were used in an outdoor environment and need to be able to stand up to all weather conditions, as well as dust and dirt. It must also be resistant to the real threat of vandalism.
Zytronic’s hugely successful Projected Capacitive Technology (PCT™) is made up of a matrix of micro-fine capacitors, embedded within a laminated glass substrate which can then be placed behind a thick glass or polycarbonate protective overlay to provide unrivalled levels of protection for the touch display from all forms of physical damage. PCT™ touchscreens are not prone to sensor drift over time, negating the need to carry out costly recalibration or maintenance which can impact greatly on the true running cost of a kiosk.
“We selected Zytronic’s ZYBRID® product as the PCT™ sensing technology is capable of detecting touch even through thick anti-vandal glass, allowing the display/touchscreen assembly to remain safe from damage and other potential sources of harm, having been involved with the touchscreen industry for more than fifteen years, we know that it is vital to select the right sensor technology for each project, and it was clear that PCT™ was the best option here.”
