Thinner LCD with Excellent Detection Performance
Hitachi Displays, Ltd. (President: Yoshiyuki Imoto, hereafter referred to as Hitachi Displays) has developed an IPS LCD with an integrated touch panel formed as a projection-type electrostatic capacitance touch-panel layer located on the color filter substrate of the IPS LCD. The development of this IPS LCD with an integrated touch-panel eliminates the need for a glass substrate specialized for touch panel usage, and accordingly has made it possible to make the LCD thinner, resulting in much thinner mobile phones and smart phones that are equipped with touch-panels that support multi-touch operation. Improvements to the drive system and the inclusion of independent software provide excellent detection performance. » Read More
Development of Electrostatic Capacitance Touch-panel that can be Operated with a Plastic Stylus, Gloved Hand, or Other Non-Conductive Object, Hitachi

Hitachi Displays, Ltd. (President: Yoshiyuki Imoto, hereafter referred to as Hitachi Displays) has developed a projection-type electrostatic capacitance touch-panel that can be operated with a plastic stylus, gloved hand, or other non-conductive object. With this touch-panel, information entered with a non-conductive object is converted to electrostatic capacitance. This technology that allows non-conductive objects to be detected has not been possible previously with projection-type electrostatic capacitance touch-panels; operation with objects such as a plastic stylus, only possible with resistive touch-panels before, is now possible for the first time. In addition to using multiple fingers on an LCD simultaneously to perform multi-touch operations such as zooming in on screens and moving icons, this new development allows a variety of input options such as detailed data entry using a plastic stylus or operation of a device with gloves on in cold climates.
