With the advent of tablets and touchscreen laptops, interacting with computers using touch has become second nature. Unfortunately, a large touchscreen monitor, suitable for an interactive display or kiosk costs thousands of dollars. Our line of infrared touchscreens makes touch affordable on any size of screen. Coupled with an LED or plasma television, a 50" touchscreen can cost less than $1000, and you don't need to be limited at 50"; we can build custom touchscreens in any size.

The infrared touchscreen is installed over a television or monitor. Infrared emitters and receivers form a matrix capable of turning touch gestures into signals that are transmitted to a computer via the USB port. No special drivers or software is required.

Unlike capacitive or resistive touchscreens, touches are reliably detected even if the user is using fingers, gloves, a stylus, a pointer, or anything else that is opaque.
