Chapter 1 General Information
1.1 Introduction
This product, an LCD touch monitor, is mainly focused on the Kiosk mar-
ket or Human Machine Interfaces (HMI). It is a core module for Kiosk
application. The LCD touch monitor supports direct VGA analog signal
inputs, which make it more compatible and adaptable to connect to com-
puters widely used in the current market.
The LCD touch monitor just provides a steel open frame so that Kiosk
providers can design their specific IDs to demonstrate their own Kiosk
application. Comparing with traditional CRT monitor, LCD monitor takes
great advantage on module size and weight; Kiosk providers can there-
fore make an easier and more flexible design. LCD monitor can also pro-
vide high brightness and contrast to achieve better viewing effect.
As a Kiosk application product, touch screen is always the best choice as
a human machine interface. SAW and Capacitive and Resistive sensor
used in touchscreen can make applied force lighter and thus use easier. In
addition, the SAW 6mm sensor can also provide impact resistant except
the touch function.
