    Large Touchscreens in the industry

    The Large touchscreen industry has been rapidly growing, and is predicted to continue that way. Many companies have been developing their own form of the tablet. Smaller tablets which range from 7’’-10’’ and larger ones are 10’’+ in size. There are also Hybrid/Transformer tablets which are tablets that include a keyboard to act more like a notebook. Most tablets in the market now are running Android or Web OS. These tablet operating systems offer tons of apps similar to apps available to mobile phones. Windows 8 is another operating system that is highly anticipated, and will shake up the tablet industry in the near future.

    Windows 8 Touch

    Windows 8 is going to be a new “Touch first” foundational user experience. The Touch capability will have the same priority as using a keyboard and mouse. This “Touch First” change will make ordinary laptops or PC’s have the same functionalities as tablets. The new Windows 8 will have a Touch application ecosystem that will support “Windows Touch”, and includes IHVs and Application developers. Synaptics is a partner of the Windows 8 co-development that can enable both TouchScreen & TouchPad. Synaptics has also been featured as a Microsoft Co-Engineering Partner at the Windows Build Conference. At this event, Microsoft unveiled the key new features of Windows 8, highlighting the new user experience driven by touch.
