The projected capacitive touch technology is fully multi-touch capable. Multi-touch refers to the ability of a touch system to detect and resolve at least 2 touch points at the same time.
Multi-touch screens not only recognize individual touches, but can also process gestures with multiple fingers, allowing a variety of user-friendly functions.
Rotation, zooming and sliding, but also operation by several users at the same time is only possible with multi-touch-capable touchscreens. With the multi-touch input, the intuitive usability and ergonomics have been optimized, especially with P.O.S and P.O.I systems.
Multi-touch capable PCAP touchscreens
Multi-touch screens were first introduced to the market with the iPhone and are now indispensable, especially in the field of smartphones, tablets or gaming applications. The innovative PCAP technology is multi-touch capable and at the same time the most widely used technology for multi-touch applications.
With projected capacitive touchscreens, an infinite number of touch points can theoretically be detected simultaneously with the help of multi-touch capable sensors. At the same time, the high density of contact points enables precise, smooth and fast operation with short response times. Even scratches in the glass do not affect the function.
