  • Touch is a way of life
  • 2009-10-14 -

    The interaction between man and machine continues to evolve and technological innovation moves this relationship forward at an extraordinary pace.

    Until recently, touch technology was considered futuristic, the stuff of science-fiction movies.
    Today, it's everywhere.

    Just think of the ATM machine, handhelds, GPS devices, check-in terminals at the airport, and even more recent arrivals like smartphones and MP3 players.
    All of these have simple and intuitive touch-screens that enable us to experience touch technology first hand.

    Now this familiarity and mastery in using touch technology has led to yet another evolution. A new kind of interaction between man and computer, where complexity steps aside to make room for simplicity, and characters are transformed into images.

    Thanks to the continuous technological improvements and to the multi-touch screen capabilities introduced by the new Windows® 7 OS, Acer revolutionizes the way people interact with their computers. Multi-touch screens not only replace the mouse, but change our approach to technology as well as our way of working.

    Using fingers to manipulate objects, move images, play games, write text and more is an easier and far more intuitive way to access and interact with a computer.

    Touch screen technology is for everyone. Computers can still be scary and many people do not feel at ease using them. Since operating a notebook with simple taps on the screen is what most closely replicates the familiar hands-on experience of object manipulation, touch screen technology will help bridge the gap that many users still perceive when confronted with technology, offering a new and more rewarding way to use technology.

    Besides being a fun and engaging way to manage and share digital content, multi-touch technology means you can use more gesture combinations for a wider range of functionalities and a more natural and intuitive approach. With simple touches you can flick, rotate, magnify and more, making the experience faster, more instinctive and just plain fun to use. It’s also possible to select, browse through files, start applications and navigate menu options.

    Touch it, Love it, Live it
    The starting point of this new, hands-on computing experience is the cool Acer TouchPortal where you can access your multimedia files and devices, drag and drop your photos onto the photo wall, play videos, watch DVDs and switch from one format to another just by tapping on a virtual button.
