Tier-One OEM Selects FlatFrog In-Glass Touch Solution for PCs

LUND, Sweden, January 31, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

    FlatFrog delivers fully Win8 certified touch module that enables premium touch
performance with best-in-class screen clarity for a leading PC OEM.

    FlatFrog Laboratories AB, a leading provider of Win8 certified in-glass optical
multi-touch systems, announced today that its touch module has been selected by a leading
tier-one OEM for PC applications.

    All leading OEMs are now evaluating FlatFrog technology as an innovative Win8
certified replacement for capacitance touch, especially when highest quality screen
clarity is needed. Unlike projected capacitive touch, FlatFrog Touch has no sensor grid in
front of the LCD screen, obstructing the image quality. This ensures a superior viewing
experience with maximum transparency and no image quality degradation. Furthermore, the
FlatFrog technology is insensitive to LCD noise, eliminating the need for an additional
shielding layer, which adds extra cost. This means that OEMs can develop solutions with
optimal viewing performance while reducing their touch module spending significantly.

    "We are very pleased that we have been selected to enable this OEM to deliver a high
quality PC touch solution," said Dhwani Vyas, CEO of FlatFrog. "The design award validates
the development of our touch module which is now ready for production, putting FlatFrog
well ahead of our competition and on track to execute to our key goals for 2014."

    A range of high volume consumer PC products can already be enabled with FlatFrog
Touch, including Notebooks, Tablets, All-in-One PCs and Monitors. FlatFrog Touch is
certified for Windows 8.1 and offers a premium touch experience supporting over 40
simultaneous touches at a lower cost than the leading projected capacitive touch
technology.

    Additionally FlatFrog Touch natively supports pressure sensing with over 10-bit
resolution. FlatFrog can enable pressure sensitive drawing and writing without the need
for an active stylus, as well as new application gestures for music, gaming and smart user
interfaces.
