INFRARED TOUCHSCREEN FEATURES

ACCURATE AND PRECISE TOUCH DETECTION: Infrared touchscreens provide high accuracy and precision in detecting touch inputs, allowing for smooth and responsive user interactions. This accuracy ensures that the intended actions are executed correctly

MULTI-TOUCH SUPPORT: IR touchscreens can detect multiple touch points simultaneously, enabling multi-touch gestures like pinch-to-zoom, rotation, and other intuitive interactions commonly used in modern user interfaces.

HIGH DURABILITY AND RELIABILITY: Since infrared touchscreens have no physical overlay or layers that could wear out over time, they are more durable and less prone to damage from scratches, dust, or liquids. This makes them ideal for public spaces and high-traffic environments.

NO DEGREDATION IN IMAGE QUALITY: IR touchscreens do not impact the display’s image quality since they are placed over the screen but do not obstruct or distort the view. This feature ensures that the displayed content remains clear and vibrant.

EASY CALIBRATION AND MAINTENANCE: IR touchscreens can be easily calibrated to ensure precise touch detection across the entire screen surface. Additionally, maintenance is relatively simple, as there are no complex layers to clean or align.

HIGH TOUCH RESPONSE SPEED: Infrared touch technology provides rapid response times, making interactions feel seamless and reducing lag between touch inputs and on-screen responses.

SUITABLE FOR LARGE DISPLAYS: Infrared touchscreens can be scaled up to very large sizes, making them suitable for interactive displays, interactive whiteboards, digital signage, and other applications where a larger touch surface is required.

IMMUNE TO ELECTROMAGENTIC INTERFERENCE: Infrared touchscreens do not rely on electrical conductivity and are not affected by electromagnetic interference, making them suitable for environments where electrical noise might be present.

INFRARED WORKS BEST FOR…

Infrared technology works best for applications that require reliable and durable touch or gesture-based interactions. It is commonly used in interactive displays, kiosks, and public information systems, where frequent usage and exposure to environmental factors are expected.

Infrared touch screens are also favored for large-format displays and collaborative environments, such as interactive whiteboards and gaming systems, due to their accuracy and ability to handle multiple touch points simultaneously.

Additionally, infrared technology can be suitable for situations where gloves or other protective coverings might be used, as it can detect touch through such materials.

HOW INFRARED WORKS

Infrared touchscreen technology functions by utilizing a grid of infrared LED and photodetector pairs along the screen’s edges or borders. When a user’s touch disrupts the infrared light beams, the corresponding photodetectors detect this interruption, allowing the system to pinpoint the touch location.

By analyzing the data from multiple interrupted beams, the technology calculates the precise coordinates of the touch. This information is then translated into user input, enabling interaction with the device. Infrared touchscreens are known for their durability, accuracy, and ability to work with various input methods.
