3M has announced a 22-inch high-definition, multi-touch LCD display for professional and professional consumer applications that require up to 10-finger touch input or multi-user interactivity with a fast response time. The new M2256PW Display supports 10-finger touch input and advanced gesture capability.
 
Introduced in June 2009 as the 19-inch 3M Multi-touch Developer Kit, this technology offered software developers a ‘full multi-touch’ hardware platform.
 
Utilising this new technology, software developers can change the way in which users interact with information and expand traditional touch interaction to include multiple users and increased collaboration. Applications that could take advantage of a high level of interactivity include computer aided design, digital signage, computer gaming, security monitoring systems, education and training, and teleconferencing.
 
The 3M Display M2256PW features a high-definition 1680 x 1050 LCD screen, DVI and VGA video input, audio input, USB and RS232 (serial) dual-mode communication protocol and durable, anti-glare front surface. The M2256PW display is compatible with Windows 7, so no third party touch drivers are required. For Linux and Windows XP/Vista/7 operating systems, 3M plans to offer a multi-touch driver and software utility, and will offer communication protocol documents for customers who wish to develop their own drivers.
 
“We have received enormous interest in our multi-touch platform from software developers across a diverse range of sectors and we look forward to seeing the exciting concepts that they create for their next generation games, systems and user applications,” commented Paolo Pedrazzoli, marketing operations manager, 3M Touch Systems.
