New Rear Mount 15" LCD Gaming Touchmonitor from Elo

Features new space saving design

Contacts

New Rear Mount 15-inch LCD Gaming Touchmonitor from EloJanuary 2006 - Elo TouchSystems, Inc., the global leader in touch technology and a business unit of Tyco Electronics, has announced the addition of a new rear mount touchmonitor. The 1537L joins its existing touchmonitor siblings expanding Elo's family of touch solutions for gaming and amusement applications. The new space saving touchmonitor is "designed for touch" with Elo's proven expertise and reliability already built in. The integrated precision minibezel seals the touchscreen against dirt, dust and liquids simplifying integration into the customer's cabinet. The 1537L rear mount touchmonitor is available with a choice of Elo's IntelliTouch surface wave or capacitive touch technologies, plus a dual serial/USB touch interface. Worldwide agency approvals cover the whole monitor, which is designed, built, serviced and supported by Elo, a single source supplier.

Like all Elo gaming monitors, the 1537L features a watertight minibezel designed to keep out dirt and stop spills, plus simplify the integration of the monitor into the game cabinet. The compact 1537L is a mere 336mm (13.44") wide, 264mm (10.56") high and only 41mm (1.64") deep. A long lasting product cycle can be expected as Elo controls the design and tooling, so future generation panels can be phased in without external changes. The 1537L also features an interface that is compatible with both industry standard touchscreen protocols, including Elo's SmartSet protocol. Full specifications, drawings and 3D design files are available on www.elogaming.com.

According to Mike Sigona, Elo market manager, "The 1537L is only one in a large family of rear mount touchmonitors whose sizes range from 12" to 19". We also offer a choice of panels including wide viewing angle panels and a choice of the most popular touch technologies on the market today: the antiglare clarity and superior performance of IntelliTouch surface wave as well as Elo's own capacitive technology." These choices are good news, Sigona notes, for customers who want an alternative to their current capacitive technology. "Add to these options the fact that the virtually invisible minibezel seal also denies access to dirt, dust, splashes and spills, and you have a compact and affordable touchmonitor that can be deployed in a wide range of environments."
