HUMELab uses Zytronic PCT technology in its luxury touch tables for restaurants

Combining designer furniture with innovative multi-touch solutions from Zytronic, HUMElab offers large format multi-touch tables designed for placement in hotels and restaurants.

Zytronic has developed sensors with p-cap resistance that have been introduced into multi-touch screens that will be embedded in designer furniture designed for restaurants and hotels. This project has been carried out in collaboration with its French distributor Eurocomposant and will be supplied to the furniture manufacturer HUMElab.

Given the sector to which you plan to direct the sale of this furniture, HUMELab required that the screens be capable of withstanding the use of areas through which a large number of people pass., that required little maintenance and responded accurately to tactile pressures. Besides, The displays had to be easy to clean and aesthetically fit into luxury environments.. Capacitive technology (PCT) Zytronic responded to all these requirements.

Combining designer furniture with innovative multi-touch solutions from Zytronic, HUMElab has large format multi-touch tables with applications in a wide variety of solutions. They are available in formats of 22, 32 y 43 inches. The glass of these screens has been provided with a hardened material and an anti-reflective system. With his 6 mm thick allow for clear viewing in any lighting condition, in addition to protecting it from environmental and physical damage.

Zytronic PCT technology is manufactured using a very thin metal matrix (10 microns in diameter) embedded in a laminated substrate. This technology allows the recognition of complex gestures as well as the possibility that the screen can be used by up to four people at the same time.. Besides, does not require regular calibration and allows large abnormal contact points to be ignored. A very useful feature when these touch tables are used in areas where users lean over the active area and register false touches..

“Zytronic touch sensors were chosen due to their fluid response to touch and the 40 simultaneous touch points that can provide. By being able to determine multiple touch points simultaneously, Everyone around the touch table can participate and enjoy shared participation. They also offer other advantages in terms of maintenance, such as not requiring calibration, which was what happened with the previous solution we used.”, explica Armand Menargues, HUMElab International Sales Director.
