Outdoor and industrial environments demand more from touchscreen displays than standard commercial monitors can provide. Bright sunlight, moisture, temperature extremes, and demanding operating conditions can quickly expose the limitations of conventional touchscreens. To help OEMs and system integrators solve these challenges, UICO has introduced its new 19” High Bright Panel Mount PCAP Touchscreen, engineered specifically for rugged industrial and outdoor applications and m

Electrical noise and electromagnetic interference (EMI) are common challenges in industrial, military, and vehicle environments. These conditions can interfere with projected capacitive (PCAP) touchscreens, causing false touches, missed touches, or unstable operation. Proper touchscreen design and controller tuning are essential for reliable performance in electrically noisy environments. UICO are specialists in this area and will help not only design, but help integrate this

Touch screen technology continues to transform how we interact with devices across many industries. This post introduces the first model in Uico’s mid-size panel mount family, highlighting its features, benefits, and practical uses. Uico’s new 12.1 inch PCAP panel mount touch screen offers a reliable and versatile solution designed to meet the demands of industrial, outdoor, and commercial environments. We also will introduce the 15", 15.6" and 19" in this series. 12.1" Panel

When designing industrial or outdoor equipment with an LCD touchscreen, one of the most important design decisions is whether to use an air gap display or an optically bonded display. This decision affects visibility, durability, touch performance, and long-term reliability. What Is an Air Gap Display? An air gap display has a small air space between the LCD and the cover glass or touchscreen sensor. Air gap displays are typically lower cost and easier to manufacture but hav

Many industrial and outdoor devices must operate in direct sunlight, where standard displays become difficult or impossible to read. Sunlight readable touchscreens are designed to maintain visibility in bright environments such as construction equipment, agricultural machinery, military vehicles, and outdoor kiosks. Understanding what makes a display sunlight readable helps OEMs design better products for outdoor use. What Is a Sunlight Readable Display? A sunlight readable d

Projected capacitive (PCAP) touchscreens are widely used in industrial, medical, and outdoor equipment, but many applications require operation while wearing gloves. From factory environments to military systems and medical devices, glove-compatible touchscreens are often essential for safety and usability. Understanding how PCAP touchscreens work with gloves can help OEMs select the right touchscreen configuration for their product. How PCAP Touchscreens Detect Touch PCAP to

Selecting the right touchscreen is one of the most important decisions in modern product design. For OEMs developing industrial, medical, transportation, or commercial equipment, the choice often comes down to a critical question: Should you use a standard touchscreen or invest in a custom PCAP touchscreen solution? While standard displays can accelerate early development, many projects eventually require customization to meet performance, environmental, and lifecycle demands

When specifying a projected capacitive (PCAP) touchscreen for industrial, medical, food processing, or hazardous environments, safety and compliance are just as important as performance. That’s why we’re proud to introduce our new UL Listed touchscreen solution , engineered for reliability and independently certified for safety. But what does “UL Listed” actually mean, and why should it matter to your engineering team? What UL Listing Means: UL Solutions (formerly Underwriter
