February 19, 2014

TouchSystems has added a new model to its V Series line of large-format touch displays with the 80-inch V8080I-U screen, based on the NEC V801. The display is integrated with infrared and is available as a dual-touch or multitouch solution.

According to a company news release, the display features built-in speakers, expanded connectivity with digital loop-through, and a built-in expansion slot that supports the Open Pluggable Specification. It also is designed with energy efficient measures such as an ambient light sensor and carbon footprint meter, and can be mounted in a landscape or portrait orientation.

"A number of our customers in retail and education environments have expressed interest in touch screens exceeding 55-inches," said Carol Nordin, president of TouchSystems. "We believe larger screens will continue to increase in popularity as will multi-touch technologies. Our newest display brings both elements to bear; it's large at 80 inches and is sold with as many as 12 points of touch."
