Multi Touch Screens and RPF
Interactive multi touch foils can be incorporated into most any video on glass display by incorporating a touch screen film on the back side of the glass. In a storefront window display where a user will be interacting with the touch screen from outside the store, the user will never touch the technology itself. Everything needed to transform your storefront glass into an interactive touch screen will be installed safely and securely inside the store. multi touch foils are specifically designed to sense the touches made on the outside of the glass with thru-glass touch screen technology.
Multi touch foil is 98% transparent and the user will most often never know how you are able to sense a touch outside your storefront. Touch screen film can be incorporated with transparent rear projection film to create a holographic touch screen display. Multi touch foil is about the thickness of card stock paper and can be applied to most clear surfaces including glass or acrylic.
Multi touch foils can be ordered with temporary cling or permanent adhesive layer depending on your usage and application, if you are selling the touch film product and installing it for your clients most often we would recommend the permanent application method.
Multi touch foil is available in a number of standard sizes in 4:3 and 16:9 and can also be custom ordered to your exact requirements if needed. Most standard size touch screen films are available within a week or so from order date and custom touch films can usually be expected to arrive within 3 weeks. If you have specific requirements please address them with your SSI representative at time of order.

Interactive Touch Screen
Traditional Displays are comprised of signage, banners and other forms of printed or static graphics. As our society continues to make the journey towards interactivity, it is important to be sure your marketing does the same. Interactive touch screen displays are a great way to begin to move towards the forefront of technology without going too far too fast.
There is an ever-growing need to provide users with an interactive experience without losing site of traditional marketing methods and best practice. While we are in this transition it is of utmost importance that we do not alienate or frustrate the masses that are just beginning this transition to interactivity.
When you integrate an interactive touch screen display into your existing or future digital arsenal you can engage your customers in a conversation relative to their needs and desires. Retail traffic in local stores and shops all over the country are searching for goods and services. Should you be the one that communicates the right message to them at the right time, you will become the one who receives the reward of cash in hand.
Interactive touch screen displays provide retailers a tool that is both exciting and educational for consumers. The user is encouraged to "reach out and touch" the display. This is when the magic begins.
Communicating through a touch screen display is non-threatening and easily accepted. The viewers feel as if they are in control of the marketing that is going on and therefore let down their guard.
If utilized properly, this will become your most valuable sales tool in your company. Focus on customer experience, relationship building and data acquisition and you will have a successful interactive digital signage deployment. This type of marketing can be used for many applications, including lead capture, product tutorials, training, interactive catalog, sale presentations, web browsing and so much more.
Just remember that the touch screen is only as powerful as the content that is driving the user experience. This is not to say that you will need to reinvent your entire company’s marketing campaign but you will need a professional programmer or content agency to assist you in bringing the two together for a seamless, consistent delivery of your core message and goals.
Interactive Touch Screen Displays have quickly become a must have for tradeshows, corporate lobby displays, way-finding in public buildings, portable and stationary sales presentations, retail storefronts and more. Determine that you will not be left out of this very real transition in marketing. Make the decision to get in on the ground floor, rather than wishing you had.
There are several different types of touch screen technologies available, including Thru-Glass Touch Screen Films on Glass, Infrared IR Bezels, Single Touch, and Dual Touch with a variety of touch points, including 2, 6 and 32 point touch. Because multi-touch technology is not standard, it is recommended that you verify that the technology you are considering for purchase is in fact "True Mul
ti-Touch Touch Screen" and not dual touch. Along with any other features that are being deemed as standard.
Reach out to a Professional Interactive Displays Company that focuses on educating you, as the consumer, so that you can effectively utilize the technology with a minimal learning curve and quick ROI.

The new age of Multi Touch Foils
Projected Capacitive Touch Foils have changed quite a bit in the last few years, here are some of the latest advancements.
Touch Foils work through glass and non metallic surfaces
Standard Touch foils come up to 20 touch points
Standard sizes are from 30"-100" and larger and custom sizes are available
Palm & Arm rejection
The sensor has the ability to recognize and reject large areas of touch contact, like palms or arms, while finger touch detection remains working. Users can lean over a table and not affect the touch experience. This feature can be disabled in the control panel.
Advanced Calibration mode included
Create customized touchscreen installations. This feature gives the flexibility of using a sensor smaller than the display and control touch in just the sensor area. Or, alternatively, the option of having multiple displays in a grid and detect touch only in part of that display area.
Unaffected by light conditions
Interactive equipment using Multi Touch Foils can be placed anywhere as they are unaffected by lighting conditions. They can be placed outdoor, under direct sunlight, or in extreme light conditions.
Through non conductive materials
Multi Touch Foil technology works with non conductive materials, like glass, wood or special materials like Corian. Typical applications include applying the sensor on a glass,and touch is detected on the other side of the glass. This glass is usually between 4mm and 8mm but it can be up to 20mm.
Light Weight

Side or Bottom Tail What?
Where Do You Want To Connect Your Touch Film
Your touch screen film will need to be connected to a computer and display for it to achieve the desired result. This is achieved by connecting your touch film to a computer; your touch screen film will have a PCB Board on either the side or the bottom where you will find a mini USB connection.
This is what is referred to as the tail; your touch film has an overall area which includes both active and inactive areas and the tail. The active area is just inside the overall area and is best described as the only portion of the interactive touch film that will recognize a user’s touch and communicate that interaction to the computer.
Applications vary of course and therefore it may be beneficial to request either a side or bottom tail to make integration and aesthetics more appealing. If you have a specific need or application please speak with a Screen Solutions representative to discuss your options, Call us at 888-631-5880
