We offer a variety of touchscreen solutions. If you are not sure which touchscreeen type would work best for your application, then the information below may be helpful. Follow the links below for information on the different types of touch technologies that we offer.

4-Wire Resistive Touchscreens 4-Wire Resistive touchscreen technology is used in the touch add-ons that we offer for PC monitors and notebooks. It is a reliable and affordable technology that is widely used by individuals and in less demanding workplace applications. It is pressure sensitive so it responds to any input device, including finger, gloved hand, or pen stylus. Follow this link for more information.
5-Wire Resistive Touchscreens We offer 5-Wire Resistive touchscreen technology with the CRT and LCD touch monitors that we offer. It is a durable and accurate technology that is widely used in demanding workplace applications such as point-of-sale systems, industrial controls, and medical systems. It is pressure sensitive so it responds to any input device, including finger, gloved hand, or pen stylus. Follow this link for more information.
Capacitive Touchscreens We offer Capacitive touchscreen technology with the CRT and LCD touch monitors that we offer. It is a durable technology that is used in a wide range of applications including point-of-sale systems, industrial controls, and public information kiosks. It has a higher clarity than Resistive technology, but it only responds to finger contact and will not work with a gloved hand or pen stylus. Follow this link for more information.
PenTouch Capacitive Touchscreens We offer PenTouch Capacitive touchscreen technology with the CRT and LCD touch monitors that we offer. This screen combines durable Capacitive technology with a tethered pen stylus. The screen can be set to respond to finger input only, pen input only, or both. The pen stylus is a good choice for signature capture, on-screen annotations, or for applications requiring precise input. Follow this link for more information.
Surface Acoustic Wave Touchscreens We offer Surface Acoustice Wave touchscreen technology with the CRT and LCD touch monitors that we offer. It is a very durable screen that is widely used in applications such as computer based training and information kiosk displays. The SAW screen is a good choice for applications where image clarity is important, but it may not perform well in extremely dirty or dusty environments. Responds to finger or soft rubber tipped stylus. Follow this link for more information.
Near Field Imaging Touchscreens We offer Near Field Imaging touchscreen technology as one of the custom LCD touch monitor solutions that we can provide. It is an extremely durable screen that is suited for use in industrial control systems and other harsh environments. The NFI type screen is not affected by most surface contaminants or scratches. Responds to finger or gloved hand. Follow this link for more information.
Infrared Touchscreens We offer Infrared touchscreen technology with the Plasma display solutions that we offer. This is the only type of touch technology that we have available for large displays such as 42-inch Plasma screens. It is a durable technology that offers high image clarity. Responds to any input device or stylus. Follow this link for more information.
