Multi-touch panels - Optimal usability

Multi-touch panels open up new dimensions for innovative HMI design. There are numerous gestures that might be used in an application: zooming in and out and rotating objects with two fingers, scrolling through lists and switching to the next screen with a quick swipe. The main advantage of multi-touch technology is how it makes operation more intuitive. At the same time, two-hand gestures for critical or potentially dangerous operations provide an effective way of preventing unintentional operator errors. Multi-touch displays are supported by the operating systems Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2016 LTSB, Windows 7 Professional/Ultimate and Windows Embedded Standard 7 Premium.

Scalable performance

The full range of Panel PC 900 processors – from the single-core Celeron up to the quad-core Core i7 – provide a versatile selection of CPU performance levels to make it the best platform for any application. Even in fanless operation, the Panel PC 900 outperforms the high-end version of its predecessor.

Versatile panel technology

The second generation of Automation Panels also serves as the technological basis for B&R's Panel PC devices. This modular platform strategy results in a product portfolio with extraordinary flexibility.

The core component is the panel itself, which is transformed by the Panel PC 900 system into a full-featured Panel PC with scalable processing power. Using the same front-side platform for the Panel PC and Automation Panel reduces the amount of warehouse space required for replacement parts. Custom variants using Automation Panels and Panel PCs require only a single base unit.

Compatible

The advanced design of Panel PC 900 devices provides support not only for multi-touch widescreen display systems, but also for classic 4:3 displays. Equipped with an analog resistive touch screen and display sizes up to 19", Panel PC 900 systems are fully compatible with the previous device generation with respect to the resolution and form factor of the display.

The Panel PC 900 is completely modular. This means that these system platforms can be individually adapted to different applications. With data storage options ranging from SSD to CFast, slots for both PCI and PCI Express, VAC power supply and an integrated UPS, there are virtually no limits to what you can do.
