Today’s demonstrations with both flat and curved samples of Corning Gorilla Glass illustrate the compatibility of the Atmel XSense sensor with the industry’s standard chemically strengthened cover glass for touch-enabled displays. Atmel is confident that industrial designers can now develop touchscreens with stylish and contemporary form factors, without compromising reliability, functionality and optical clarity, even in the most demanding and rugged environments.
“We are excited to coordinate with Atmel for this demonstration. These results further demonstrate Corning Gorilla Glass’ compatibility with emerging touch technologies,” said Paul Tompkins, director, commercial technology, Corning Specialty Materials.
“Touchscreens in inventive, unique form factors are fast becoming an ideal way to differentiate new consumer devices,” said Jalil Shaikh, vice president and general manager of touch materials, Atmel Corporation. “These efforts allow our customers the ability to work with more flexible materials and damage-resistant glass. We look forward to an ongoing, collegial relationship with Corning.”
