Multi-touch will be the key focus on Stand 3F.11 at Kiosk Europe Expo, 15-17 June 2010, Messe Essen, Germany. Diversified technology company 3M will present the tremendous and immediate opportunity for Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) to support full multi-touch capabilities in their next generation applications using its 22-inch Multi-Touch LCD desktop displays.

3M��s M2256PW 22-inch desktop display supports up to 20 simultaneous touch inputs and advanced gesture capability, enabling software developers to initiate a technological leap in user interaction design. Applications taking advantage of this high level of interactivity include computer aided design, digital signage, computer gaming, security monitoring systems, education and training, and videoconferencing.

The M2256PW display features a high-definition 1680 x 1050 LCD screen, DVI and VGA video input, audio input, USB and RS232 (serial) dual-mode communication protocol and durable, anti-glare front surface. It is compatible with Windows 7, so no third party touch drivers are required. For Linux and Windows XP/Vista/7 operating systems, 3M plans to offer a multi-touch driver and software utility, and will offer communication protocol documents for customers who wish to develop their own drivers.

MicroTouch Capacitive TouchSense (MCT) System from 3M

A 19-inch MCT System Display will also be on the stand. Featuring tactile feedback, the MCT Display enables gaming designers to integrate a range of touch sensations – from simple clicks and variations in resistance to pulses or vibrations – in their original gaming machines or after-market retrofit machines.

Dispersive Signal Technology (DST) Display

Alongside this will be a 40-inch display screen featuring the MicroTouch DST2270DX System from 3M. The DST2270DX System is available in sizes from 32-inch to 46-inch and is ideal for interactive digital signage applications where fast and accurate touch is required.

LCD Monitors, Sensors and Controllers

Additionally, 3M will exhibit 15-inch and 17-inch Desktop and Chassis Touch Monitors designed to meet the needs of kiosk manufacturers. A range of touch sensors and controllers will be displayed alongside, including the MicroTouch SCT3240CX System from 3M for small devices using 5.7-inch to 15-inch LCD displays and the MicroTouch SCT7650EX System from 3M for rugged ATM, kiosk, and vending machine applications.
