Capacitive Interactive Whiteboard--------The Dark Horse of interactive whiteboard
What is Capacitive Technology?
Capacitive technology has been known
for many years but did not become mainstream as a useful and robust user input
device until the mid-1990's where it began to become widely deployed as a `behind-the-glass` discrete touch button technology in high end cooktops and similar
devices.
Capacitive technology,which allows an unlimited
number of unambiguous touches,produces higher resolution, is less sensitive to
EMI, and can be more efficient in its use of sensor space. Mutual capacitance
makes use of the fact that most conductive objects are able to hold a charge if
they are very close together. If another conductive object, such as a finger,
comes close to two conductive objects, the charge field (capacitance) between
the two objects changes because the humanbody capacitance [steals" some of the
charge.
In a mutual-capacitance touch screen, transparent
conductors are always patterned into spatially separated electrodes in two
layers,usually arranged as rows and columns.Because the intersections of each
row and column produce unique touch-coordinate pairs, the controller in a
mutual-capacitance touch screen measures each intersection individually. This
produces one of the major advantages of mutual-capacitance touch screens – the
ability to sense a touch at every electrode intersection on the screen.There is
no blind area.
Capacitive
Technology in interactive whiteboard industry
In interactive whiteboard
industry,infrared ,optical,electromagnetic,resistive technology is mainstream
technology.you hardly see capacitive interactive
whiteboard appeared in the market.Capacitive Interactive whiteboard as a dark
horse in interactive whiteboard market,little-known but potential.
Promethean has ever developed
capacitive interactive whiteboard.But it was not real capacitive iwb,which
combined electromagnetic with capacitive just allowed one users writing by
electromagnetic pen and others by finger touching.
In 2013,a creative and real interactive
whiteboard was born in INTECH laboratorybased on capacitive technology.We
called INTECH CP series capacitive interactive whiteboard,which
changes the interactive whiteboard history.You know,that is a bold attempt.
Why is it a bold attempt?Before CP
capacitive interactive whiteboard was developed,it is a dark horse that was
rarely known.Frankly speaking,it is even hard for us to collect engough files
to assess the future effect.BUT our feelings reminds us it will lead us to
success.
Why research capacitive interactive
whiteboard? INTECH R&D manager of Hardware in
INTECH,Zheng said,"capacitive technology is widely used in Phone,PC,touch
screen and other devices,but in interactive whiteboard industry,it is blank.We
should make a new definition of capacitive technology in interactive
industry.It is a potential technology in iwb field.We just try some different
that change this industry".
He also said,"compared to infrared
technology,capactive interactive whiteboard has more strengths,it is easier
support for multi-touch technology.Thanks to the special feature of
capacitive,we can have more writing area in iwb,there is no blind area".
[Besides,Any objects on the board have no
effect to the writing operation.For example, when you are writing on the board
by right hands while you keep your another hand some distance from the board so
that keep from misoperation.It will not occured on CP."
Although more manufacturers are
intended to have a research on capacitve touch screen.But the price of large
size of touch screen is expensive.We are committed to promote our capacitive
interactive whiteboard into every class in world.Capacitive IWB owned the
similar functions with touch screen,it is cheaper and easier for acceptance.
Capacitive Interactive Whiteboard & Media
When INTECH capacitve interactive
whiteboard appeared on the interactive whiteboard market firstly,the market is
crazy.It got more focus.The 64th Education Equipment Show in
Wuhan,China,CP wons a good reputation."It is so interesting" "I like the
multi-touch games" "So magic",some visitors praised.We also saw a lots of
friends operate whiteboard at the scene.
At the same time,there also have a lot
of exposure in a number of famous magazines and newspapers."China projector Network""Electronic
Journal of Education""Huicong Network""Alibaba" both referred to capacitive
interactive whiteboard.
Capacitive interactive whiteboard has
already played well in the first war.We have reason to believe that capacitive interactive
will get more acceptances in the near future.
