You can make the work environment more flexible by providing a multi-touch experience. You can look for touch screen solutions with small displays for these sort of sessions. Presentation room In the presentation room, the presenter conducts a presentation in front of the audience while interacting with the screen to display the slides, make annotations, and synthesise work. It’s better to install a larger touchscreen projector in the presentation rooms. Touch Technology Touch technology is evolving constantly to improve user experiences. Currently, you can access three standard touchscreen technologies for your company, including infrared, capacitive, and in-glass touch. ▪ Infrared touch—an entry-level solution involving an embedded overlay of infrared beams around the screen to detect the touch of fingers, stylus, or other pointing devices. Capacitive touch—works well with the screens using the human body’s electricity to recognise the interactions—capacitive touch is widely used in smartphones and tablets as it provides the best touch experience. In-Glass touch—is a recently developed touch technology, which works similarly to infrared touch technology—the transmitters are embedded within the glass, locating where the pointing device disrupts the screen. InGlass touch offers excellent image clarity and touch experience. ▪ ▪ Screen size You can find the industrial touch screen monitor in various screen diameters: 55”, 65”, 75”, and 85”. Also, 27” touchscreen monitors can work well for your business premises. You can choose the screen diameter after considering the touch screen monitor’s use case, how many employees are in the session, and how far away they are from the screen. For instance, you can install 55-75” touchscreens in presentation rooms. Movable or Mounted Touchscreen Displays By installing the touchscreen display on a rolling stand, employees can work in the best place to support the task they need to complete. It will allow your employees to be more agile and creative. However, some companies prefer fixing touchscreen displays to the wall to save space, improve aesthetics, and avoid moving expensive equipment around. You should determine what best meets your organisational needs and choose accordingly. The best touchscreen display for your business Choosing the right option for your company can be challenging with different touchscreen solutions offering different technologies and functionalities.
