Our infrared touchscreens are very robust, easy to install and to handle. They are the perfect choice for industrial-, outdoor- or kiosk applications, since their controller is integrated in the rugged plastic- or metal bezel. Optionally the touch screens are also available with IP 65 sealing.

The infrared touches are available in all popular sizes from 6.5" to 150".  Some interesting points for I.R. are:

With great interest and vigor we have studied the Digital Signage market developments and requirements.  Many of these solutions tend to be based around Client PCs, addressing many of the high end segments of the digital signage market.

But 90% of all advertising is achieved via paper posters and this mass market does not lend itself to Client PC solutions (due to high power consumption and the environmental implications that come with that, expensive Installation, permanent Administration, license and Update costs as well as complex user software etc.).  The price differential is too great.

Therefore as a global Digital Signage company we decided to develop and bring to market an innovative concept, that allows you to address that mass market traditionally only achieved via paper.

This development has resulted in our Artista technology concept and achieves the following demands or requirements:

-        Reduced power consumption (lower running costs and therefore a Greener Product reducing your carbon footprint etc.).
-        Software compatible Artista-components with various performance features („pay only for what you need so no overkill“)
-        Simple operation for the user (user-friendly) - for an example see our Artista Display Printer.
-        Simple and quick installation / set-up with our simple ACC playlist creator.  So no specialist IT people needed (cost saving)
-        After installation no Administration and no Software Updates  (= now cost of ownership!)

The following components are currently available:

-        ArtistaUSB: direct drive from TFT displays via the standard USB port up to full HD
-        ArtistaNET: Ethernet – Networked station for picture shows, with power consumption only 2,5W
-        ArtistaMEDIA: Ethernet – Network Station for Download of MPEG-Files.

For the integration of these components into your Application Software we supply drivers and Software Development Kits using Linux and Windows, to give you the complete solution.

The largest installed network using ArtistaNET currently totals more than 2000 displays worldwide!  The solution works and delivers the benefits listed above.

Display Technology the displays, interface, embedded computer and touchscreen specialists will launch a new range of 17” and 19” touch screen monitors at ICE 08 this year. The new DTL series benefits from the same mechanical dimensions, waterproof and dustproof  sealed touchscreens with a plastic bezel assembly design as the ELO Rear and side Mount 1739L and 1939L series. The DTL range are designed for easy integration, offering a slim design, easy conversion, wide viewing angles and enhanced video design.

In addition to the quality and cost benefits, the DTL range offers a long lasting life cycle with a 3 year guarantee. Display Technology has one of the widest ranges of TFT LCD interface solutions in Europe, with in-house custom design facilities and worldwide support with offices in UK, Germany, Turkey and USA.
