Elo TouchSystems Line Of Touchmonitors Expanded With The Addition Of PCAP Touchscreen Technology

Two New Elo Touchmonitors Offer Multi-touch and a Sleek, Frameless Design

TE Connectivity recently announced the expansion of its Elo TouchSystems portfolio with two of its leading touchmonitors now available with projected capacitive (PCAP) touchscreen technology.

The Elo TouchSystems wide-screen 1519L 15-inch and 1919L 19-inch LCD desktop touchmonitors now offer multi-touch functionality and increased touch sensitivity for the demands of retail, hospitality and high-traffic commercial use. Adding PCAP technology to the 1519L and 1919L touchmonitors provides a unique, aesthetically pleasing seamless design, a sensitive touch response and is able to withstand repeated touches, - an advantage for heavy, public usage applications. These new PCAP touchmonitors offer multi-touch functionality (when used with Windows 7 operating system) and a seamless, glass-to-edge, frameless design while maintaining fast, accurate and stable performance.

"The PCAP touchscreens available on these touchmonitors demonstrate our commitment to providing a variety of the best solutions on the market for commercial applications," stated Ehsan Ayar, senior product manager at TE Connectivity for Elo TouchSystems products. "The seamless, smooth, frameless designs of the 1519/1919L touchmonitors come packaged with the speed and performance you would expect in an Elo TouchSystems product. We are also excited to add PCAP touch technology to these models to increase touch response and add multi-touch capability."

Well-suited for use with the fast-changing retail and hospitality applications such as point-of-sale (POS), point-of-information (POI), point-of-service, interactive digital signage and kiosk information systems, these touchmonitors with a wide-aspect ratio screen provide more space to display additional content on the screen and are easier to use and incorporate into a wider variety of environments than traditional desktop touchmonitors. The new PCAP touchmonitors are suitable for customers who are looking for a reliable, frameless, cost competitive touch solution. The 1519L and 1919L PCAP touchmonitors provide reliable, durable operation and expand the globally trusted Elo TouchSystems touchmonitor portfolio. The 1519L and 1919L now feature a choice of five touchscreen technologies: AccuTouch five-wire resistive touchscreens, the most widely used for retail applications and proven to withstand splashing liquids, food and grease; IntelliTouch pure glass surface acoustic wave touchscreens, for outstanding optical quality preferred in dry retail and hospitality applications; iTouch pure glass surface acoustic wave for outstanding optical quality and glass-to-edge design; APR (acoustic pulse recognition) touchscreens; and now multi-touch, zero-bezel PCAP touchscreens for a glass-to-edge seamless design.
