Top One Tech discuses how to choose touch displays for outdoor use

6 September 2023

(PRESS RELEASE) -- The outdoor application scenarios of the display cover billboards, outdoor vending machines, outdoor smart lockers, outdoor Kiosks, etc. Touch display products used in outdoor environments need to be equipped with some special performances to resist changing outdoor environments and ensure a longer life cycle and stable work. When choosing a touch display, attention should be paid to the appropriate screen type, waterproof and dustproof capabilities, durability, brightness, contrast, etc.

Screen type: Glossy screens may have better color rendering, but are prone to reflections and are not applicable to direct sunlight environments while matte screens have poorer color rendering, but better anti-glare effects and are applicable to outdoor use.

Waterproof and dustproof: Rainwater, dust and other pollutants may be encountered in the outdoor environment, so touch display products should have certain waterproof and dustproof capabilities, we generally suggest a protection level of IP65 or above.

Feasible in the sun: Touch displays working in an outdoor environment will definitely be exposed to the sun, so you should choose a touch monitor with high brightness and anti-glare performance. We generally suggest using 1000-2500nits brightness.

Durability: Outdoor applications will face harsh environments, so durability is very important. In addition to being waterproof and dustproof, a touch screen should be anti-breakage, anti-vibration, and anti-scratch. It is necessary to make sure the touch screen can work properly in a high-temperature, low-temperature or high-humidity environment as well as in an environment where frequent shaking happens.

Safety: Outdoor applications are often subject to damage by vandalism or accidental damage. It may cause the glass surface of the display to break. Keeping in mind public safety and economic loss, it is important to use touch screens that don’t shatter into small shards when hit.

Reliability and stability: In an industrial outdoor environment, the touch screen needs to have good anti-interference performance and be able to work reliably and stably. It is suggested that you should study and test the quality of the touch display, the reputation of the supplier and after-sales service.

Visibility: Not limited to high brightness, high contrast, and anti-glare, a wide viewing angle ensures better visibility in all environmental conditions.
