Touch International

Enhanced touch display technology

Touch enhancements include EMI, colour, and privacy filters, polarisers, IR filters, custom communication cables, embedded controller options, and custom cover glass.

Cover glass customisation includes thickness, ranging from thin and light to heavy-duty, as well as ruggedised, custom shapes, sizes, curves, and cutouts for buttons.

Cameras and controls, as well as other graphics, such as colours, indicators, logos, and other branding, can also be customised. Surface treatments and coatings include anti-fingerprint, anti-glare, anti-reflective, anti-microbial, and more.

Display enhancements include extended-temperature operation, transparent heaters, high-brightness, sunlight-readability, night-vision (NVIS), and more.

Industrial computing and video processing technology

Various industrial computing options can be integrated as part of a complete package, and the company has reference designs across several form factors to speed up development and reduce costs.

TI can design and integrate multiple applications, including single board computers, compact PCs, OPS media players, and custom Raspberry Pi systems. Operating system options include Windows, Windows Embedded/IoT, Linux, and Android.

Peripheral integration and connectivity complete the computing package, with options including cameras, controls, card readers, NFC/RFID, IoT applications, PoE accessories, repeaters, and a wide range of sensors, such as fingerprint, motion, heat, mechanical, and electrical.

TI also designs and manufactures custom video boards and has reference designs for customer integration, compatible with any resolution (custom/FHD/4K), input/output (HDMI/VGA/RS232/PoE), and more.

Custom housings and complete assemblies for the military

Final assembly design and integration bring everything together, combining the company’s extensive engineering and supply chain resources to deliver complete, plug-and-play touch-enabled solutions.

TI’s industry-leading in-house metal and plastics capabilities include milling, laser sheet cut/bend/weld, large format thermoforming, and hydrographics. Examples of finished products include kiosk housings, stands or mounts, chemical and weather resistant touch PCs, custom hardware adapters, integration, or retrofit.

Custom paint, graphics, and powder coats can be applied to almost any final assembly in order to meet the most demanding specifications or customer requirements.

Touch International’s OFX Series Multi-Touch monitors are complete turnkey touch display packages, suitable for use as-is or with as much customisation required for a specific application, dramatically easing the burden of development from scratch. These monitors are available from 7” to 55” and include medical-compliant and IEC60601-certified configurations.
