Interactive foil

Tag: Design, Interfaceadmin @ 4:30 pm

The company ‘Visual Planet‘ has developed interactive foil that can be used as a touch screen. One major advantage is that it can be glued on every surface that is not metallic. Consider the possibilities. Now displays in public will get vandalized less easy as the display (read foil!) can be glued on the inside of windows / plastics.

Two configurations

The foil comes in two configurations; a see through window configuration or an interactive poster configuration. Especially the see through configuration has a lot of potential as it keeps working with a glass thickness of 25 mm. This more ‘vandalize proof’ display could open doors for such displays at buss stops, shopping centers that lack the social control at certain times during the day.
