Cambridge Touch Technologies sets a new benchmark for touch technology with global rollout

• Cambridge Touch Technologies, Ltd. (CTT) announces a major production milestone for its UltraTouch product line, with a new 7-inch Touch Display Module (TDM). 

• UltraTouch integrates CTT’s force-sensitive capacitive touch technology to prevent unintended touches and improve control in critical applications, minimising costly downtime and reducing the risk of accidents. 

• Now available to buy through a growing network of global channel partners, distributors, and resellers. 

 CAMBRIDGE — Cambridge Touch Technologies Ltd. (CTT) has today announced a major production milestone for its next-generation UltraTouch product line of touch display modules (TDM).  A new 7-inch touch display module integrating CTT’s patented, force-sensitive capacitive touch technology, UltraTouch, is now available through a growing network of channel partners and value-added resellers, distributing worldwide. 

The global touch display module market is expected to reach USD 113.05 billion by 2031. However, operational challenges like unintended touches and dust and moisture ingress are causing costly downtime and negatively impacting mission-critical applications where accuracy and, above all, control, are essential.  As governments and private sectors invest in newer and better human-machine-interfaces (HMI) for next-generation equipment, or modernising outdated existing systems, traditional solutions often fall short due to safety concerns, reliability issues, and susceptibility to electromagnetic interference (EMI), making them less suitable for demanding environments in industries such as industrial automation, defence, and healthcare.

CTT’s UltraTouch technology brings a new standard of touch interactivity, elevating user interfaces, boosting operational efficiency, and creating new possibilities for a wide range of control applications.  UltraTouch is transparent, flexible, solid-state, and thinner than a human hair.  As a passive layer, it consumes very little power.  It detects both the location and force of finger touches, allowing the touch sensor to be covered with materials such as glass, polymer, metal, or ceramic.  Additionally, UltraTouch can directly trigger haptic feedback systems, bypassing the delay of routing touch event data through the host device. 

With operations and sales teams in the UK, Tokyo, Montreal, Munich, Taipei, and Shanghai, CTT seeks to expand its global presence by recruiting value-added resellers to distribute its products worldwide, including in the United States.  

Corbin Church, CEO of Cambridge Touch Technologies, Ltd., said: “The Global Touch Screen Modules market is set for robust expansion, fuelled by innovation, growing demand, and diversifying applications. With the global rollout of our 7-inch UltraTouch TDM, our technology not only offers superior touch performance and all-new control capabilities, but also meets the demanding requirements of industrial and mission-critical applications, making it a versatile solution for customers seeking reliable HMI products that are more intuitive and lead to safer operations.” 

CTT’s UltraTouch 7-inch touch display module will be showcased by its channel partner, Review Display Systems, at stand H24 during the Engineering Design Show in Coventry, UK taking place on October 9th and 10th, 2024.

UltraTouch can be purchased from CTT’s channel partner network, which includes Review Display Systems and Midas Displays. Further details can be found on their website: https://www.camtouch3d.com.
