Digital ink for large diagonal size monitors
Lead Participant:
ALTERIX LIMITED
Abstract
Alterix Ltd has developed low-cost electronics capable of achieving a hundred-fold increase in measurement
speed compared to the common touch interfaces used in tablet PCs. Our solution scales easily to large sensors
with diagonals up to 85” and is compatible with the flat-panel TVs with which the future of interactive displays
lies. We have developed multi-touch technology capable of consistently and completely rejecting the palm of
the user in order to achieve a comfortable user experience for the creators of content – who often need to use
virtual keyboard or stylus input for digital inking. This project will provide an opportunity to test the feasibility
of a novel approach for utilising the Bluetooth active stylus developed for Apple devices on Windows 10
computers with large scale interactive multi-touch monitors. The proposed upgrade of our touch electronics
will allow us to extend the capabilities of an ordinary multi-touch panel towards those of a fully functional
digitiser with support for digital ink capabilities introduced in the most recent Anniversary Update to Windows
10.
