The use of interactive touch tables has been experiencing remarkable growth for some time, especially in commercial applications such as retail, catering, hotels, casinos, and museums. Modern multi-touch technologies enable multiple users to experience content interactively and collaboratively at the same time. Companies that want to offer their customers innovative and memorable experiences are increasingly turning to interactive solutions to not only meet but exceed expectations.
A decisive step toward modern, intuitive interactions is the integration of advanced object recognition into existing multi-touch applications.
What is intelligent object recognition?
Intelligent object recognition is a process in which specific physical objects are recognized and identified on an interactive surface. This is done using specialized algorithms and pattern recognition software. In combination with multi-touch sensors, this technology greatly expands the possibilities for user interaction. The result is an immersive user experience on large interactive displays that is both visually appealing and interactively compelling.
Camera-free object recognition: Precise and seamlessly integrated
Traditional object recognition systems often use cameras to identify objects, which can present technical challenges. Modern solutions, on the other hand, enable camera-free object recognition that is fully compatible with projective capacitive touch technology. This innovative method is based on conductive markers that are attached to the respective objects. These markers simulate touches on the touchscreen and enable precise identification of the objects.
These markers can be used to activate specific menus, display product information, or trigger software functions. A particular advantage is that no additional hardware changes to the existing system are required. In addition, the system responds only to defined, conductive objects, thus avoiding false operations caused by non-conductive objects such as pens, bags, or clothing.
Advantages at a glance:
- Enables interactive multi-user experiences
- Camera-free, precise object recognition
- Compatibility with existing multi-touch hardware
- Prevention of operating errors through intelligent technology
Use intelligent object recognition to create unique and personalized customer experiences and take your interactive solutions to the next level.
