Safe Touch solutions for mission critical applications
11 July 2023Touch supplier AMT develops new Force Touch technology featuring piezo-electric elements
Display solutions and embedded systems provider, Review Display Systems (RDS) has announced the introduction of Safe Touch solutions from leading touch supplier AMT. Safe Touch products employ a newly developed AMT touch technology known as Force Touch.
False actuations and erroneous inputs on touch screen displays can present a serious problem for many applications employing touch-based graphical user interfaces. Harsh and wet operating environments can also introduce challenges for touch-based display systems and equipment.
Measuring actuation force - AMT’s Force Touch technology operates by integrating a piezo-electric element into the rear of the touch screen. By measuring the change in capacitance and voltage generated, the actuation force applied to the surface of the touch panel can be determined.
Direct touch inputs - this internal mechanism helps to prevent and protect against accidental touch inputs, electrical noise, and water contact. Touch panels with integrated Force Touch technology can provide the assurance that only intentional and direct touch actuations will be registered, and also ensure that the system’s next touch input is directly user-specified.
