FlatFrog Touch integrates Gesture Recognition

FlatFrog has integrated its unique in-glass touch technology with gesture recognition. Integrated gesture recognition allows users to interact dynamically with the display, either in close proximity or at a distance. Just as touch was a leap forward in user interaction, the combination of touch and gestures will be the next step in the evolution of touch screens. The gesture functionality is integrated behind the touch module, enabling true flush, edge-to-edge designs with minimum mechanical design changes to the customer product. The combination of touch and gestures into a single interface product will enable new powerful user experiences and exciting application features.

FlatFrog Touch for Curved Screens

FlatFrog is showcasing with lead customers our latest curved screen touch solution. FlatFrog's in-glass touch technology detects touches by transmitting light inside the glass cover lens independent of its shape. Touches can therefore be detected on curved and bent cover lenses with perfect optical clarity. Curved screens help reduce reflections that impact brightness and color and enables better readability. FlatFrog believes the use of curved screens will be increasing prevalent in PC, monitor and TV applications - all target markets for FlatFrog Touch.
