Elo to demo new gaming apps in London

December 7, 2011

TE Connectivity will showcase its latest Elo TouchSystems products for gaming applications Jan. 24-26 at the annual ICE Totally Gaming exhibition in London.

The main Elo TouchSystems product highlight at the show will be a new 22-inch gaming LED touch monitor 2244L, a wide viewing angle version of the recently released 2243L 22-inch, open-frame monitor, alongside a new 55-inch model in the Interactive Digital Signage (IDS) family featuring multi-touch, and a small 7-inch LCD display, according to a company press release.

Elo TouchSystems 2244L 22-inch monitor

The 2244L 22-inch monitor features a 16:9 aspect ratio high-definition display with LED backlight technology, providing HD interactivity for the latest gaming applications. The wide viewing angle of 178 degrees by 178 degrees allows colors to remain sharp and graphics to retain their integrity, while the LED backlighting reduces power consumption and allows for slimmer dimensions enabling cabinet manufacturers to produce thinner and more aesthetically pleasing kiosk design, according to the press release.

Like the 2243L, the Elo TouchSystems 2244L monitor is available with either the TE Touch Solutions APR (Acoustic Pulse Recognition) or IntelliTouch surface acoustic wave touchscreen technology. These pure-glass touch solutions provide superior image quality to ensure that colours and optics of games are preserved.

Elo TouchSystems 5500L

Also on show will be the latest product in the Interactive Digital Signage (IDS) family – the 55-inch model 5500L. This large-format touch display is useful for interactive advertising and visitor guidance in casinos and hotels and combines IntelliTouch touchscreen technology with commercial-grade, large format LCD panels in a sleek true-flat design, according to the release. The 5500L will also be available with an optical touchscreen technology, which allows up to four simultaneous touches to be detected. No activation force is necessary, and image quality is high while it can be touched with any type of stylus. The 5500L will also feature a LED-backlit LCD panel making it slimmer than existing models and with narrower borders.

Elo TouchSystems 0700L

The 7-inch LCD display – the Elo TouchSystems 0700, is typically applied as a second display, facing the customer in POS and retail environments. It can also be set-up to be the main display for applications requiring a small screen, for example personal gaming screens as part of a larger interactive gaming table.

Other solutions

The company will also be exhibiting touchmonitors with projected capacitive touchscreen technology – PCAP. Fast and sensitive response, zero-bezel design and multi-touch are some of the advantages of this technology, according to the release. Also on show will be desktop monitors and all-in-one touchcomputers featuring glass-to-edge iTouch surface acoustic wave touchscreen technology, the zero-bezel version of IntelliTouch, comprising a true-flat seamless glass touchscreen.
