Isys power and beauty are infused throughout Crestron’s entire touchpanel lineup.
Under the hood, the TPMC-15/17-L offers vibrant 24-bit color depth with 8-bit alpha
channel transparency to produce incredible 3D graphics using new dynamic menu
objects, dynamic graphics, full motion animations, multi-mode objects, PNG
translucence and exclusive Synapse™ image rendering - all with astonishing speed.
Synapse™
Crestron’s exclusive Synapse Image Rendering Algorithm enables system
programmers to produce amazing graphics – faster and easier. Advanced antialiasing
delivers crisper, sharper objects and text. Enhanced 3D effects add new depth and
style. And because Synapse is native to the touchpanel, memory requirements and
upload time are substantially reduced.
Enhanced Touchpanel Control and Presentation
More than a touchpanel, the TPMC-15/17-L is also a dynamic resource for managing
routine online tasks and enjoying streaming music and video and a high-resolution
video monitor with performance rivaling the best LCD flat panel displays available.
The QM version also provides a dynamic presentation source, delivering high-
resolution video and audio to any size audience via integrated QuickMedia transport
technology.
Embedded PC
The power of Isys i/O™ is in its embedded PC engine, combining rock solid
touchpanel performance with enhanced capabilities for surfing the Internet,
streaming multimedia and desktop videoconferencing. Running the Microsoft
Windows XP Embedded operating system, Isys i/O delivers a reliable and secure
platform for touchpanel control with integrated PC functionality. Programmatic
control erases the lines between control system and PC, allowing programmers to
customize each application’s behavior within the touchpanel environment to create a
truly powerful and user friendly interface.
