Mimo Monitors has partnered with Tanvas to integrate Tanvas' haptics technology with conference room displays for the TanvasTouch solution. Users can feel texture through the screen when they touch the TanvasTouch display, according to a press release.
The TanvasTouch uses electrostatics to control friction to create a "touchable canvas," according to the release. It allows users to feel edges and collisions, as well as smooth, bumpy or soft textures. Tanvas integrated the solution with Mimo Monitors' Vue Capacitive Touch Display.
"The TanvasTouch technology is unlike anything I've ever experienced. It allows a typically stagnant touchscreen to come to life in an engaging way," David Anderson, CEO and president of Mimo Monitors, said in the release. "Our proprietary, high quality touchscreen technology and digital signage expertise in tandem with Tanvas' innovative surface haptics technology makes for an ideal partnership. We're very much looking forward to bringing the Mimo Vue with TanvasTouch to market and providing customers with a powerful and new interactive medium."
