TouchSystems adds 70-inch touchscreen to digital signage lineup

June 4, 2014

TouchSystems has introduced a 70-inch touchscreen to its lineup in an effort to continue responding to customer needs, according to a company announcement. The screen, based on the NEC Display Solutions P703, is integrated with infrared and is available as a multitouch solution (with six, 12 or 32 touchpoints).

"Our retail, hospitality and education customers have expressed interest in touchscreens exceeding 55 inches," TouchSystems President Carol Nordin said in the announcement. "As larger screens become more popular, the opportunities for interactivity using multitouch technologies increase as well. Our newest addition combines size and interactivity at 70 inches with as many as 32 points of touch."

The P7080I-U3 is designed for 24/7 use with durable, commercial-grade components complemented by LED backlighting, a full-HD panel and a 4000:1 contrast ratio. It features built-in speakers and expanded connectivity with digital loop-through. The P703 generation of displays represents a full chassis upgrade over the previous generation, with support for the Open Pluggable Specification, the addition of a second expansion slot, faster processing times, evolved daisychain performance and near field communication capabilities (for setup and servicing only). It can be mounted in a landscape or portrait orientation.

The P7080I-U3 display is available through TouchSystems’ distribution partners. Customers can also contact TouchSystems to create a custom solution based on the P7080I-U3, such as an all-in-one computing solution including an integrated single-board OPS computer and a wall mount, the company said.
