Introduction

Touchscreen

A touchscreen is an input device and normally layered on the top of a screen, allowing a user to give input, to react or control what is displayed simply by touching the screen. The touchscreen enables the user to interact directly with what is displayed, rather than using a mouse, touchpad, or other such devices (other than a stylus, which is optional for most modern touchscreens). Touchscreens are found in the medical field, heavy industry, automated teller machines (ATMs), and kiosks such as museum displays or room automation, where keyboard and mouse systems do not allow a suitably intuitive, rapid, or accurate interaction by the user with the display's content.

The HMP supports virtually any touchscreen or touch overlay which uses an HID compliant controller, is connected to the HMP via the USB port and works in single-touch mode.

Note Note:
If your device is not responding to touchscreen calibration or is responding erratically, check the troubleshooting section from the Interactivity via USB page.

Multi-touch support

Support for multi-touch touchscreens, including multi-touch handling in HTML layers has been added in firmware 4.7.0 for HMP400, HMP400W, and third-party players.

  • Multi-touch controllers may not be compatible with the HMP (including HID compliant ones), so if you find that your multi-touch screen / overlay doesn't work with the HMP (i.e., touchscreen calibration fails), try to place it into single-touch mode, if possible.
  • SVG Tiny 1.2 does not support multi-touch, therefore it is not possible to create projects that respond to such multitouch events - the player will try to reduce them to single-touch events. If you need multi-touch support, then you need to use an HTML page, instead of SVG content.

Supported HID devices

Not supported

For security reasons, no third-party drivers or applications can be installed on the player - thus touchscreens requiring a specific driver to function are not supported. This is the case for the majority on non-HID devices, except the ones written above.

For instance, screens using Acoustic pulse recognition (APR) technology from Elo are not supported because they use a proprietary driver, not an HID-compliant driver. Note however that most models from Elo exist in both the APR and "Intellitouch" variants, the latter usually includes HID drivers.
