LG multi-touch screen certified for Windows 7

Business IT - Technology

Microsoft has given its seal of approval to a 13.3in multi-touch screen from LG.

LG Display's 13.3in multi-touch screen has gained 'Windows 7 Touch Logo' certification from Microsoft.

The 13.3in capacitive in-cell multi-touch LCD panel has built-in touch sensor technology, which avoids the loss of picture quality and additional thickness resulting from the use of films applied to conventional panels in order to deliver touch functionality.

CTO and executive vice president In-Jae Chung said "LG Display has successfully applied the capacitive in-cell multi-touch technology to large sized LCDs for notebook PCs. Until now, the technology had limited use in smaller devices like mobile phones.

"We believe Microsoft certification is a testament to the product's excellence. We will continue to apply superior touch functions to larger IT products like notebooks and monitors to lead consumer and market trends."

Mass production of the panel is planned for the second half of 2010.
