Surface Acoustic Wave - IntelliTouch

Confrontation table >>

Surface Acoustic Wave technology is one of the most advanced touch screen types. It is based on sending acoustic waves across a clear glass panel with a series of transducers and reflectors. When a finger touches the screen, the waves are absorbed, causing a touch event to be detected at that point. 
Because the panel is all glass there are no layers that can be worn, giving this technology the highest durability factor and also the highest clarity. This technology is recommended for public information kiosks, computer based training, or other high traffic indoor environments.


Advantages:
  • High touch resolution
  • High clarity 
  • No-drift operation, so doesn't need recalibration often 
Disadvantages:
  • Must be touched by finger, gloved hand, or soft-tip stylus. Something hard like a pen won't work
  • Not completely sealable, can be affected by large amounts of dirt, dust, and / or water in the environment
