Grayhill T201-DEV1

The new Series T2 Multi-Touch Control Wheel (MTCW) offers an expanded array of sensor data options, allowing the system to interpret many different finger gestures for machine command and image manipulation. Approximately 4.5" in overall diameter, the MTCW is available in standard white or black, or can be made in custom colors. It has the functionality of four devices in one unit: 1. Multi-touch touchpad 2. Virtual rotary encoder with 4 to 256 positions (actuated when a finger runs around the circular groove surrounding the touch surface) 3. Virtual 4-position joystick (touching points at north, south, east, west) 4. Proximity sensor The robust MTCW allows the equipment manufacturer to consolidate many control functions in one HID. As a result, the manufacturer can eliminate superfluous trackballs, joysticks, touch screens, keypads and other switches, reducing the size and complexity of the control panel, while also reducing costs. The MTCW is manufactured as a complete sealed package, without any cracks, crevices or moving parts. In other technology, these areas are difficult to disinfect in bacteria-ridden environments such as hospitals. Another key feature of the MTCW is its small height profile, which allows for efficient and clean integration into a control panel.
