I’m mounting a projected capacitive touch screen to a 17” monitor and am trying to find out how much of a gap I need to leave between the touch screen and LCD glass. Is the gap dependent upon the type of touch screen used? Also, do you have any suggestions for how to mount it to the LCD or bezel?

My company is developing a sleek new GPS and we’re looking for the right touch solution. We’ve looked at projected capacitive touch screens, but feel the cost will push our product’s price point up too much. What do you suggest?

I have an older factory floor industrial machine that has a 13” curved touch screen built into it and is connected by a Wiretail (round) connector. If I switch from a curved touch screen to a flat panel, will there be compatibility issues? Do touch screen attachments have different drivers for different sizes and models? Please help!

Hello Touch Guy! My name is Jeffery. I have a new product that I would like to finish the prototype for, but...I cannot find a flexible, yet durable touch film (no glass) I can use. The size needs to be approximately 12" x 12" (+/- 1 or 2") but I am willing to look at other options. I am talking to the TV show, Shark Tank, and counting on a few other companies to bring this product to market. The problem I am facing is manufacturing's willingness to deal with me. I'm not asking for something for free and am willing to pay for a sample unit, but the supplier must be able to supply 1,000 units at a time.
Do you have any suggestions for companies that can provide a flexible touch film?

It was with great excitement that I received my projective capacitive multi-touch kit from Touch International. My guidelines for our vendor were to find a touchscreen with multi-touch support and support for security glass. I’ve seen that there is no driver for this touch screen to support multi-touch. And on the other hand we tried to put a glass layer in front of the touch panel and it didn’t work. Another problem we are facing is that if the touch-panel comes near the lcd-panel the touch coordinates are wrong. What gives?
