What Is PCAP Touch Technology?

·

·

PCAP (Projected Capacitive) touch technology works by creating an electrostatic field that senses finger touches through glass. It is:

  • Highly responsive and accurate
  • Supports multi-touch gestures
  • Durable and sealed for protection against elements

Unlike traditional resistive or infrared touch systems, PCAP excels in environments where aesthetics, reliability, and performance matter most.

Benefits of PCAP in Indoor Kiosks

  • Sleek Aesthetic: Edge-to-edge glass for a modern, clean look
  • Fast & Fluid Response: Delivers smartphone-like precision
  • Durability: Scratch-resistant surfaces ideal for heavy use
  • Multi-user Support: Handles multiple touch points simultaneously

Retailers, corporate lobbies, museums, and educational spaces all benefit from the enhanced engagement PCAP provides.

PCAP’s Advantages for Outdoor Kiosks

Outdoor deployment requires rugged and responsive touch interfaces. SSI’s outdoor PCAP kiosks are built to perform in:

  • Rain and Snow: PCAP works through moisture and weatherproof glass
  • Sunlight: High brightness displays ensure visibility
  • Cold & Heat: PCAP maintains accuracy across temperature extremes

Whether on city sidewalks or in national parks, SSI’s outdoor kiosks with PCAP offer long-term reliability and outstanding performance.
