Will the touchscreen work if the glass is dirty, damaged, or scratched?
Ans: Yes. A benefit of optical/infrared touch is that the infrared beam hovers above the glass so any imperfections to the glass do not affect the infrared beam at all, and thus the efficiency of the touch. Disclaimer: Dirty optical/infrared camera lenses can cause irregular touch performance. Cleaning the cameras once quarterly with a non-ammonia based cleaner and Q-tips will insure overall best performance. What PC systems will your touchscreen systems work with? Ans: Our touchscreen solution works with most common operating systems, including Microsoft (HID Compliant), Macintosh, and Linux (with some work).
