Zytronic has introduced a rollable and extremely flexible touch film which utilises the company’s proprietary Multi-touch Projected Capacitive Technology (MPCT). The ZYFILM enables customers to create their own touch screen displays by laminating the film on to the rear of a transparent substrate, such as a shop window, and combining it with a projector or LCD.

Currently available in sizes up to 85", the film is expected to be used in retail and other digital signage applications that require large, eye-catching interactive displays. When correctly laminated to a suitable substrate, the polyester touch foils can be deployed in semi-permanent and permanent applications.

The projected capacitive sensor is well protected and highly resilient to everyday public use when mounted on the rear surface of a protective substrate. Coupled with its one time calibration and absence of drift, this results in extremely high levels of reliability, essential for year round operation.

When combined with Zytronic’s ZXY200 and ZXY300 multi-touch controllers, the touch foils can detect up to 40 simultaneous touch points through glass thicknesses of 10mm. The ZYFILM touch foils feature a thinner construction, enabling them to be packed in tubes when shipped in small quantities in order to minimise transportation costs.

“We want to provide our customers around the world with access to Zytronic’s industry-leading touch sensor technology, regardless of the physical format of their end application. This new film delivers a highly flexible solution - in all senses of the word - and will enable brand owners to engage with customers in creative and productive ways,” commented Ian Crosby, Sales & Marketing Director, Zytronic.
