Lund, Sweden and Shenzhen, China – Oct 20, 2023 – FlatFrog and Hitevision, pioneers in interactive displays and touch technology, move forward with a cooperation and intellectual property agreement in the U.S. and Europe regions.
Interactive displays are used in classrooms for teaching as well as corporate meeting rooms to facilitate more engaging meetings. Whether you are digital whiteboarding or using them for video conferencing, the quality of the interactive touch experience is key for adoption.
FlatFrog, with its InGlass™ technology, has been the leading innovator for improving the user experience for these displays. Its InGlass™ technology provides the lowest contact detection height in the industry and allows multiple users to digitally write on touch screens with a passive pen or finger without the frustrating latency of conventional touch screens. This technology creates a natural writing experience as natural as pen on paper and supports intuitive motions such as erasing with your finger or hand. Because of its intuitiveness and natural handwriting advantages over conventional touch screen technologies, InGlass™ has been adopted by the world’s leading touch screen display companies, including Dell, Samsung, Sharp, NEC, Avocor and others. FlatFrog innovations have been backed by significant R&D investments over the years. FlatFrog‘s considerable investments into InGlass™ and related touch screen technologies are protected by more than 65 granted patents worldwide and more than 70 pending applications.
