Three Simple Steps to Set Up an ARGON PCAP Touch System

  With the ever-expanding market of touch screen applications, projected capacitive touch technology has become an obvious pick for graphical user interfaces. However, having a diverse product line, some manufacturers look for one controller capable of managing all sensor size needs but also require integrating PCAP touch screens. This may lead to costlier inventory and overall manufacturing. Considering this issue, A D Metro has developed an adaptive projected capacitive (PCAP) controller that makes using PCAP touch technology easier than ever. ARGON is an intelligent PCAP controller that automatically matches the connected sensor, without needing any software programming utility. The ARGON PCAP controller automatically detects sensor channels to determine their sizes. Moreover, it automatically sets orientation and optimizes sensitivity along with the touch threshold. ARGON is an intelligent controller that also allows easy setup of the number of touches (1 to 10) and adjusts other

2-Touch Resistive Controller: Making Multi-Touch Functionality Feasible For Demanding Applications

  Multi-touch technology in devices offers a smart and interactive interface. Applications integrated with this technology can identify and simultaneously process multiple touch inputs via their touch-sensitive surface. The multi-touch technology enables intuitive accessibility, interactivity, and simultaneous usage by individuals. This ability to detect and track multiple touches in parallel provides numerous advantages for users. However, it entirely depends on the type of touchscreen used in the application. Manufacturers typically use projected capacitive touchscreens (PCAP) for multi-touch attributes. But for challenging environments like outdoor marine and military applications, where PCAP touchscreens cannot operate reliably, A D Metro has developed 2-touch resistive controllers.    A D Metro’s patented 2-touch resistive controller with 5-wire resistive sensors (standard or ULTRA) delivers a unique two-touch solution enabling pinch, zoom, and rotate functions in applications
