3M Touch Systems Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of 3M Company, has released its 55-inch Multi-Touch Display C5567PW. The interactive system supports 60 simultaneous touches in the largest display format to date from 3M, designed to provide new opportunities for multi-user collaboration, education and information delivery for a wide variety of large-format display applications.

3M has been exhibiting the C5567PW display this week at InfoComm 2015.

"Providing 60 simultaneous touches in a large-format display helps ensure a natural, unhindered multi-user interactive experience for many applications, from interactive digital signs and assisted selling to command and control applications," said Nicola Stevens, global business director, 3M Display Materials and Systems Division. "Further enhancing the user experience is a 10-millisecond reaction time, which helps ensure a more responsive experience, especially when compared to some infrared and optical-based touch displays."

The C5567PW display uses a glass-to-the-edge, bezel-free design for a modern appearance, the company said, and a glass, antiglare touch surface provides a high-quality look and feel, while maintaining viewability in bright, indoor environments.

Portrait, landscape and tabletop modes offer flexibility in orientation to meet a wide range of application requirements. The unit includes multiple display inputs, allowing a more appropriate image format to be used without the need for conversion.

An IPx4-compliant design seals the C5567PW display from surface spills for reliable integration in a variety of orientations and environments, and it features a robust, all-metal design and 4-millimeter tempered-glass touch surface for durability, the company said.

The C5567PW display is available as a complete, prepackaged solution for brands looking for a turnkey multitouch display that is out-of-box ready, the company said. It also is available as a projected capacitive multitouch system (sensor and controller) for OEMs, ODMs and display integrators developing proprietary large-format, multitouch devices.

In addition to exhibiting the new Multi-Touch Display C5567PW at InfoComm 2015, 3M has had a wide range of multitouch solutions on display. The company offers single-touch and multitouch displays for a wide variety of applications, including casino gaming, food service, hospitality, health care, industrial, interactive digital signage, retail point of sale and information, self-service kiosks, interactive learning, and command-and-control stations.
