iTouch technology
Using surface-wave technology as a foundation, Elo has
achieved a breakthrough in touch technology—iTouch. In
Elo’s new iTouch touch-on-tube technology, surface waves
are directed onto the cathode ray tube (CRT) surface for
touch sensing, eliminating any glass overlay on the CRT
and delivering the highest-quality image possible. iTouch
also enhances durability—a critical feature for the public-
access environment—because the CRT faceplate is several
times stronger than a touchscreen overlay.
The new iTouch technology enhances brightness and clarity,
without jeopardizing the stable, drift-free performance and
proven reliability of surface-wave technology.
iTouch benefits
•Touch directly on tube—no touchscreen overlay
•Preserves 100 percent of CRT brightness, clarity,
antireflection, and color properties
• More durable and safer than even bonded touchscreen
overlays
• Same fast, accurate, stable performance as surface-wave
