Acoustic Pulse Recognition
Elo's
Acoustic Pulse Recognition (APR) touchscreens use a completely
new and unique way of sensing touches on a display. Consisting
only of a glass overlay mounted in front of the display,
together with a small electronic controller board, Elo's
APR technology provides a new set of benefits that have
only been partially achieved before by other touch technologies.
APR combines the ultimate in optical qualities, durability,
and stability, with excellent dragging properties, along
with stylus, glove and fingernail activation, and low cost
advantages. In addition, it is resistant to water and other
contaminants on the screen, can be scaled from PDA to 42-inch
displays, and provides palm rejection during signature capture.
APR works in a simple and elegant way—by recognizing
the sound created when the glass is touched at a given position.
Elo is initially launching APR technology directed at the
POS market.
