An infrared touchscreen uses an array of X-Y infrared LED and photodetector pairs around the edges of the screen to detect a disruption in the pattern of LED beams. These LED beams cross each other in vertical and horizontal patterns. This helps the sensors pick up the exact location of the touch. A major benefit of such a system is that it can detect essentially any input including a finger, gloved finger, stylus or pen. It is generally used in outdoor applications and point of sale systems which can not rely on a conductor (such as a bare finger) to activate the touchscreen. Unlike capacitive touchscreens, infrared touchscreens do not require any patterning on the glass which increases durability and optical clarity of the overall system. Infrared touchscreens are sensitive to dirt/dust that can interfere with the IR beams, and suffer from parallax in curved surfaces and accidental press when the user hovers his/her finger over the screen while searchingfor the item to be seleced 2 point outdoor Infrared Touch Screen What is Multitouch? Multi-touch is a method of input on a touchscreen that allows two or more fingers to be used on the screen at one time.AMH Touch frame is famous for introducing multi-touch to the game machine,KIOSK interactive display,Adverstising Display in the world by using it to allow pinching and stretching gestures on the screen to control zooming. Multi-touch is something typically associated with the newest Infrared touchscreen technology. How does it work?
