The module, which can be mounted onto a wall or integrated into a table, provides enhanced functionality that designers will be able to adapt to meet user’s needs.

As a table, this piece of furniture will enable designers to marry innovative designs with the possibility of additional technological features. There are options to extend the border area beyond the display and seamlessly combine floating induction phone chargers and mechanical or static activation buttons into the table’s surface.

The recently developed floating glass button that mounts onto the surface of the module either within the display area or the extended border provides designers with the ability for independent control and full data addressability. It allows designers to create a hybrid of digital display interactivity with the output actions of the physical button. This combination, according to Zytronic, provides for a richer, more engaging user experience.

Designers can also take advantage of Zytronic’s in-house glass processing capabilities to add surface carved joggle-wheels, buttons and sliders that offer users an enhanced tactile and responsive touch experience. In addition, Zytronic’s bespoke glass printing services can help create intricate patterns, graphics, and branding in various colour combinations.

The potential of Zytronic’s PCAP touch sensor technology and controller is not limited to glass surfaces, as Technical Director, Dr. Andrew Morrision explained. “We can detect touch through a variety of other materials, including leather, concrete, and wood. This expanded capability gives designers a wider range of options to create unique aesthetics while offering users a responsive touch experience. The versatility of our technologies and capabilities opens up new possibilities for interactive design, making it a game-changer in the industry.”
