Carroll Touch expands scanning infrared touch family.ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 26, 1995--Carroll Touch Inc., a leader in the development and manufacture of touch technology, Wednesday announced two new scanning infrared touch frames for OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and displays, one for CTX CTX Context (Management; Tandem) CTX Centex Corporation (stock symbol) CTX Centrex CTX Cyclophosphamide CTX Corporate Trade Exchange CTX Cytoxan CTX Cholera Toxin CTX Clinical Trial Exemption products and the other for Planar's 640x400 ICE display. The products were displayed at COMDEX/Spring here this week. The Carroll Touch ICE/400 Touch Frame was designed for Planar's 640x400 display featuring Integral Control Enhancement technology which provides a darker background and brighter display, eliminating the need for costly circular polarizers. The ICE/400 frame can be sealed for harsh environments with the addition of an acrylic anti-glare filter A treated glass panel that is placed over a monitor screen to reduce glare. See anti-glare screen. . The Carroll Touch CTX 15-inch Touch Frame adapts CTX display models 1562ES, 1562GM and 1565GM for touch, and works with any of Carroll Touch's modular controllers. The frame ships with drivers for popular operating systems Operating systems can be categorized by technology, ownership, licensing, working state, usage, and by many other characteristics. In practice, many of these groupings may overlap. and devices. Carroll Touch pioneered the scanning infrared touch industry when it developed the first commercial applications for this technology in the 1970s. Today, Carroll Touch designs, develops and manufactures scanning infrared touch input systems for computer monitors, terminals and flat panel displays A thin display screen for computer and TV usage. The first flat panels appeared on laptop computers in the mid-1980s, and the LCD technology became the standard. Stand-alone LCD screens became available for desktop computers in the mid-1990s and exceeded sales of CRTs for the first time and holds more than 10 patents for infrared technology alone. Scanning infrared technology has several inherent advantages over other touch technologies. It is easy to integrate with existing systems because it is available in a nonintrusive clip-on design which retains manufacturers' warranties and FCC (1) (Federal Communications Commission, Washington, DC, www.fcc.gov) The U.S. government agency that regulates interstate and international communications including wire, cable, radio, TV and satellite. The FCC was created under the U.S. certifications for the displays. Color and clarity of the displays is also very sharp as scanning infrared systems place no layers between the user and the display. Due to its complete sealability and due to the inherent ruggedness of the optomatrix design, infrared technology is ideal for heavy industrial, process control, medical systems and other applications where reliability and resistance to shock and vibration are essential. With their patented programmable amplification and servo-loop circuitry, Carroll Touch infrared touch systems compensate for changing environmental conditions, including fluctuations in ambient light and exposure to particulates, dirt, dust and liquids. Carroll Touch Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary Wholly Owned Subsidiary A subsidiary whose parent company owns 100% of its common stock. Notes: In other words, the parent company owns the company outright and there are no minority owners. of AMP Incorporated, was founded in 1973. Carroll Touch pioneered scanning infrared touch technology in the 1970's and today is the market leader for guided acoustic wave technology applications. Carroll Touch recently has expanded its product line beyond the core business of touchscreens for monitors and flat panel displays to position the company as the one-stop source for the human interface market. Carroll Touch was the first in its industry to offer a comprehensive five-year warranty and the first major touch vendor to achieve ISO (1) See ISO speed.
