3M’s ‘surface capacitive touch technology’ has been incorporated into gaming machines built in central Europe.
Slovenia-based casino Gold Club have bought 3M MicroTouch MCT Systems for many gaming machines, including its 22-inch multi-user electronic roulette tables.
3M’s multi-sensory touch system allows video-based, haptic feedback without mechanical buttons
Bos?tjan Stopar, general manager of Gold Club, said: ‘We looked hard at the alternatives and the most powerful advantage was the strength of MicroTouch. MicroTouch is very nice for the user: it is fast, intuitive and has solved problems we have had in the past with mechanical integration and calibration.’
The 3M MicroTouch MCT System consists of an enhanced 3M MicroTouch Sensor SCT3256, a hybrid 3M MicroTouch Controller MX touch and haptic feedback electronics, and two or more touchscreen actuators, according to screen dimensions.
This system provides haptic feedback effects for on-screen video buttons to replicate pressing mechanical buttons caused by a vibration on the touchscreen’s surface.
