The Atmel maXTouch solution offers higher performance, better accuracy, faster response times and lower power than competing solutions to provide a better user experience. Its true unlimited touch functionality and faster performance enable advanced features including rejection of unintended touches, multi-touch stretch/pinch and rotate gestures, and handwriting recognition on larger form factor screens, ranging from mobile Internet devices (MIDs) to PC Netbooks and notebooks. The maXTouch solution is based on Atmel’s proprietary microcontroller technology, combined with software algorithms for a more robust touch solution.
We are excited that Acer has selected Atmel’s maXTouch technology to power its flagship entry into the hot tablet market, said Binay Bajaj, director of touch marketing, Atmel Corporation. Acer’s choice is a testimony to Atmel’s product innovation and continuing leadership of the explosive touchscreen market.
