In 1996, the company manufactured and marketed a 33" touchscreen—the largest at that time—and in 1999 expanded its offering with 40" and 42" models using Elo's CarrollTouch infrared and IntelliTouch surface-wave touch technologies.
The new 32" touchscreen joins the recently announced 30" IntelliTouch touchscreen and is available now for applications including point-of-information (POI) kiosk displays and interactive digital signage, as in airports and retail locations; gaming machines; centralized monitoring within the medical and industrial markets; and large displays in conference rooms and exhibition centers.
"The public has been purchasing bigger and bigger TVs with the advent of digital TV, and this is transitioning into the OEM environment," said Elo product manager Frank Lung. "The cost of larger displays is no longer prohibitive, and applications for larger displays are growing."
According to Lung, many Elo customers believe bigger is better when it comes to getting their message across
"We currently have customers using our 42" and 50" touchscreens to display interactive advertisements, in electronic whiteboards for corporate presentations, and in universities and TV studios," said Lung.
