Touch Sensor Binds to 17" Monitor

UniTouch, an add-on touch sensor for monitors, now comes in a 17-inch version. Already available in 14- and 15-inch versions, the UniTouch enables interaction with applications using touch instead of, or in addition to, a mouse.

The sensor attaches with Velcro tabs to the front of a monitor, and can be removed without damaging equipment. Because UniTouch senses touch through infrared technology, it never requires calibration and is impervious to dirt, dust and even spills.

A companion CD-ROM contains games and educational software for early learning. Carroll Touch, Round Rock, TX, (800) 386-8241.
