3M Says Its Multi-Touch System Means Almost No Lag

Posted by timothy on from the so-why-don'tcha-marry-it? dept.

jonniee writes "3M has rolled out a 22-inch digital display capable of 20-finger multi-touch input with less than 6 millisecond response time. The monitor incorporates 3M's Projected Capacitive Technology based on mutual capacitance operation theory. The result produces a silky smooth response that has almost no lag in execution."
