Touchscreen Products

CSI KEYBOARDS offers touchscreen products with some of the most widely used touchscreen technologies. Each type of screen has unique characteristics that can make it the best choice for certain applications.

Matrix Touchscreens
Matrix touch screen is the preferred solution for economic applications requiring little effort on installation.

4-Wire Resistive Touchscreens
4-Wire Resistive touchscreen technology is a reliable and affordable technology that is used in less demanding workplace applications. It is pressure sensitive so it responds to any input device, including finger, gloved hand, or pen stylus.

5-Wire Resistive Touchscreens
5-Wire Resistive touchscreen 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.

Surface Acoustic Wave Touchscreens
The Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) technology is one of the most advanced touch screen types. The technology is based on two transducers (transmitting and receiving) placed for the both of X and Y axis on the touch panel. The other element of SAW is placed on the glass, called reflector. The controller sends electrical signals to the transmitting transducer, and the transducer converts the signal into ultrasonic waves and emits to the reflectors that are lined up along the edge of the panel. After the reflectors refract waves to the receiving transducers, the receiving transducer converts the waves into an electrical signal and sends it back to the controller. When a finger touches the screen, the waves are absorbed, causing a touch event to be detected at that point.

Because the panel is all glass, there are no layers that can be worn, giving this technology the highest durability factor and also the highest clarity. Compared to resistive and capacitive technologies, it provides superior image clarity, resolution, and higher light transmission.

This technology is recommended for ATMs, Amusement Parks, Banking and Financial Applications, public information kiosks, computer based training, or other high traffic indoor environments.
