The touch industry reference site, sponsored by 3M, has been refreshed this month and now includes these featured sections:
- Touch Technologies: We’ve enhanced this overview, that includes advantages and disadvantages, of commercially-available touch technologies, and added three new multi-touch technologies: Frustrated Total Internal Reflection (FTIR), Matrix Resistive and Pixel Sense.
- Touch Terminology: We’ve expanded the list of common touch-specific terms with definitions that provide additional insight into these industry-standard terms, as well as a primer on what “multi-touch” really means.
- Display Terminology: This new section introduces key terms and definitions related to touchscreen displays that include important LCD characteristics like resolution and viewing angle.
- Multi-Touch Software Vendors: Software is a key piece for enabling highly-engaging user experiences, so we’ve collected a list of companies who have demonstrated that they are building platforms and high performance applications that have fast and responsive multi-touch interactivity.
