Infrared touchscreen frame

Macada interactive overlay is an infrared touchscreen frame. With it, any ordinary LCD or plasma screen connected to a computer can be converted into an interactive projection screen. At any time. This makes this product ideal for situations where the interactive function is only needed occasionally.

Macada interactive overlay also offers the perfect solution when a regular monitor was previously installed and later there is a need for an interactive projection system.

An interactive projection screen is widely used in classrooms, meeting rooms and corporate spaces.

How does the Infrared Touch Screen frame work?

During assembly, the overlay is placed over the LCD or plasma screen. In the corners are two CCD (Charge Coupled Device) detectors. Together with an infrared transmitter, these cameras register the movements of a finger or pen over the screen surface. Thus, the screen becomes an interactive projection screen, the finger or pen acting as a “mouse”.

The touch sensitivity of the screen is very high. Even the lightest touch of finger or pen is registered.
