Marine & Touch Technology Information - Olorin VistaLine Series User Manual

Marine functionality
The following features are optional.
Dimming
To lower the brightness to minimum on a monitor without sacrificing contrast values. This is
especially useful on ships during night use in order to keep night vision intact.
Sunlight readable
Polarizing filter that is applied on top of the LCD display, increases color saturation and decreases
reflections on the panel in environments where strong sunlight is common.
Touch technologies
The following features are optional.
Projected Capacitive Touch (PCAP)
Projected Capacitive Touch (PCAP) are made up of a matrix of rows and columns of conductive
material, layered on sheets of glass. Voltage applied to this grid creates a uniform electrostatic
field, which can be measured. When a conductive object, such as a finger, comes into contact
with a PCAP panel, it distorts the local electrostatic field at that point.
This is measurable as a change in capacitance. If a finger bridges the gap between two of the
"tracks," the charge field is further interrupted and detected by the controller. The capacitance
can be changed and measured at every individual point on the grid (intersection). Therefore, this
system is able to accurately track touches. Due to the top layer of a PCAP being glass, it is a
more robust solution than less costly resistive touch technology. It is possible for a PCAP system
to sense most types of passive stylus or gloved fingers.
Microsoft Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 have native driver support for
PCAP touch on Olorin monitors.
