ViewSonic Next Generation Touchscreen Display - TD20 and TD40 Series

Now almost everything from ATM machines, interactive ticket booths, POS devices, slot machines, and information kiosks feature a user-friendly interactive touch screen. The user can use the touch screen to react to what is displayed and to control how it is displayed.

ViewSonic incorporates the touch technologies into the TD series of monitors, featuring TD20 and TD40 series that can bring display solutions to improve the business efficiency.

Optical Touch
Optical Touch technology utilizes two or more image sensors that are usually placed around the edges of a display. These sensors allow the touch surface to recognize two contact points simultaneously, and provide users with direct interaction by allowing two-finger gestures such as zoom in/out, rotations, and two-finger taps. Because of Optical Touch’s scalability, versatility, and affordability, it is becoming a popular technology for use on large format displays.

ViewSonic’s TD20 series - The experience offered by Optical Touch is responsive and accurate, and does not require a conductive object for touch recognition. As such, this technology is extremely useful in gloved environments such as hospitals and dental offices, or for use with interactive stylus pens. Touch screens equipped with Dual Point Optical Touch are also versatile solutions for use in classroom settings, home entertainment and gaming, or as a Point of Sale device in retail stores, and even as an information kiosk.

Projected Capacitive Touch
Projected Capacitive is widely utilized by mobile devices such as smart phones and tablets. Projected Capacitive Touch screens feature a grid pattern of conductive materials layered within multiple sheets of glass. The conductive grid creates an electrostatic field, so when the screen is touched by a conductive object (i.e. a finger), the touch is recorded by measuring the overall change in capacitance.

ViewSonic’s TD40 series - Projected Capacitive Touch is a true multi-touch technology, allowing for 3 or more simultaneous touch points on the screen. With the system’s ability to detect and resolve 10 or more touches at the same time, the accuracy and touch experience is dramatically improved for the user. Because of its speed, efficiency, and intuitiveness, Projected Capacitive Touch is becoming the technology of choice for current generation touch screens and interactive displays. It is more expensive due to the complex electronics and sensor construction and since it requires input from a conductive device, such as a finger, it is not suited for environments with gloved hands.

Touch screens equipped with Capacitive Touch are best utilized for multi-user applications such as gaming, or interactive whiteboards for use in educational settings. In addition, Capacitive Touch screens are an ideal solution for businesses seeking the ultimate in interactive displays and digital signage. Capacitive Touch displays can be used to attract and engage customers in high-traffic areas such as high-end retail centers, transportation hubs, and hotel lobbies.

In conclusion, Optical Touch technology is scalable, versatile, and affordable, and best utilized for single-user applications such as POS devices, desktop displays, or for use within the gloved environments of the medical and dental fields. Projected Capacitive Touch technology is an ideal choice for multi-user applications where interactivity and collaboration are needed, such as in classrooms. Additionally, Projected Capacitive Touch can be of benefit to commercial applications as well such as interactive digital signage.

With 25 years of expertise as a leader and innovator of display technology, ViewSonic has a complete line of interactive and ergonomic touch displays to meet any need. ViewSonic’s TD20 series feature super accurate and responsive Dual Point Optical Touch technology, which is suitable for Point of Sales and public directories. ViewSonic’s TD40 series of touch displays are all Windows® 8 certified and feature 10-Point Capacitive Touch technology to deliver a versatile solution for use in the office or at home, as well as for use as an information kiosk in public areas, or as a teaching tool in interactive learning environments. All of the TD20 and TD40 touch displays feature a 7H scratch-resistant surface hardness to ensure a consistent, high-quality touch experience even in high-traffic areas. The TD series is the best line of monitors for business looking for more interactive display solutions that improve the business efficiency yet are aesthetically attractive.

MSI unveils their latest Z97 Motherboards and Nightblade barebones PC

At an event in Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam - MSI unveiled their latest line up of Z97 boards and the user-upgradable Nightblade barebones PC. Out of the 26 motherboard SKUs showcased, 23 are gaming models and this clearly establishes the focus for MSI in the coming year. Henry Lu, Senior Vice President and Founder of MSI opened the proceedings by saying the PC has been in trouble for the last five years but despite this, 2013 was the best year for MSI since 2008 and Q1 2014 was even better – almost double compared to the same period last year.

Henry Lu - MSI Senior Vice-President and Co-Founder

Ferhad Patel - Intel's Reseller Channel Organization (AP)

Next up on stage Mr. Tim Lee, SEA/MEA Component Sales Director for MSI posed an interesting question to the audience, “To build a gaming PC, which two components would you like to spend your money on the most?”. He was honest enough to say CPU and GPU as the answer (and not motherboard). “MSI is concentrating on value for money by cutting a segment into different parts, allowing you to put that extra money into upgrading your GPU and CPU – both very important features for a gamer”, he said. Apart from this Tim Lee emphasised that three features critical to a gamer – Speed (Killer LAN), Sound (Audio Boost / Creative Sound Blaster Cinema) and Stability (Military Class 4) are present on all SKUs. Mr. Lee also went into a bit of their R&D philosophy stating that unlike some of the other manufacturers out there, they’ve listened to customers rather than competition. For instance, why have Qualcomm’s Killer LAN NPU on an OC model? 

Tim Lee - SEA/MEA Component Sales Director

Maxine Chang - Motherboard Product Manager

Vincent Hou - Graphics Card Product Manager

A couple of interesting features were showcased that are available on select models belonging to all three of the above segments. Guard Pro for example is a new feature that will reduce frequency of the CPU if it’s running close to 100 degrees. Another technology available on some “classic” or blue boards, which is of interest to bit/light coin miners using USB ASIC solutions, is USB Steel Power. It ensures that these ASIC devices don’t draw too much power and make the mining unviable. M.2 and SATA Express ports were also seen on a few yellow boards and so was the Xtreme Audio DAC powered by the C-Media CM 6631 HD Audio Processor.

Austin Yang - Barebone Product Marketing

And now we come to the Nightblade – a barebones PC aimed at DIY gamers. Mr. Austin Yang, Barebone Product Marketing emphasised that the PC has a small footprint (mini-ITX form factor) and is well built. To prove it he even asked a model to stand on it. The PC comes in three SKUs at the moment – Z87, B85 and Z97. What you get is the board, the case and a PSU. The Z97 variant has a 600 W PSU. The PC apparently can support cards upto 290mm in length, this includes GTX 780Ti and R9 290X – but we wonder why anyone would want to put those cards in. The PC also has OC Genie hardware performance boost which can boost the clock speed of CPU and Memory up to +15 percent.

GIADA unveils the new S200 G1 for cold storage NAS server

GIADA S200 G1 MicroServer is a cold storage NAS server that delivers performance with ultra-low power consumption. The S200 G1 is powered with the new generation Intel Avoton SOC featuring a quad-core processor and supporting up to 64 GB of RAM. It features the IPMI, which is intelligently run by a BNC chip to control and manage the server from a remote location. The system supports up to 14 SATA devices, including the m-SATA SSD, which dramatically reduces the boot-up time. The chassis supports 12 hot-swappable hard drives.

HIGHLIGHTS:

- New Generation Intel Avoton SOC with Quad-Core processor.

- Ultra-low power consumption.

- Intelligent Management.

- High density data storage.

The S200 G1 is powered by the new generation Intel Avoton C2000 SOC, which actually comprises an Atom processor optimised for server needs. The advantage here is that this 2.4 GHz quad-core processor manages to deliver high performance, while consuming very low power, thanks to an ultra-low TDP of just 14 W. This is actually three times lower than the Intel Xeon E3 CPU. In addition to the low power consumption, the new 22 nm fabrication process also bolsters system stability. Its fanless heat sink ensures that the heat it produces is efficiently dissipated and without producing any noise such as that produced by active heat sinks.

The S200 G1 incorporates the IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Solution), which is run by a BMC (Base Management Controller) chip. The BMC monitors the physical state of the server using sensors and communicating with the system administrator through an independent connection. This allows an intelligent way of managing the storage server from a remote location.

The storage is handled by Marvell SATA control chip, supporting up to 14 SATA devices. The built-in m-SATA SSD drive ensures a minimal boot-up time. There are 4 UDIMM/2 channel memory slots to install up to 64 GB of DDR3 RAM with or without ECC. Additionally, there is a PCI-E 2.0 4X slot on-board, to install expansion cards such as RAID card, video capture card, and SATA card. It supports hybrid storage combining. Networking capability is provided by 2x Gigabit Ethernet ports and a 100 Mbps dedicated IPMI LAN port.

The chassis occupies a small footprint, thus allowing this system to be placed just about anywhere you desire. It supports 12 hot-swappable bays for 3.5-inch hard drives. While the CPU doesn't have any active cooling, the chassis has three fans to take out whatever heat is produced within the casing while in use. The S200 G1 supports 64-bit versions of Windows 2008 R2, Windows 2012 Server, Redhat, Fedora, SUSE11, Ubuntu, and CentOS.
