Gunze USA Introduces New Line of Projective Capacitive Touch Screens



World leader in ruggedized touch screen technology offers new display products to OEMs and Integrators

Austin, Texas - Gunze USA's new Projected Capacitive (PCAP) touch screens provide exceptional interaction capabilities through the most durable materials. Projected Capacitive touch panels sense input through a protective layer in front of a display, making them durable and nearly vandal-proof. Gunze PCAP touch panels feature a technology that allows them to be 'tuned' to operate through glass or polycarbonate facings in a variety of thicknesses.

"Adding PCAP to our current line of products allows OEMs and system integrators to continue to rely on Gunze USA and our complete line of products for all their needs," said Marshall Jackson, Gunze Regional Sales Manager. "As Digital Multi-touch and PCAP technologies continue to develop, our customers can continue to innovate and help move the market forward," concluded Jackson.

A current Gunze customer, Rockwell Collins, is a developer of ruggedized displays who provides advanced display technology to military, commercial and a variety of other demanding markets. Currently Rockwell Collins is utilizing the Gunze 7", 15" and 22" PCAP touch screen in their patented DDF(TM) lamination process for applications demanding outstanding performance for projecting through thick coverglass substrates laminated to the touch screen without interfering with display performance. Gunze's PCAP panels are durable, thin, light-weight and have lower power consumption. In addition to their exceptional durability, Gunze's projected capacitive touch panels support Windows 7 native gesturing and are highly accurate. They are available in various sizes from 7" to 22".
