Optical Bonding vs. Air Bonding

 

Air Bonding Technology

Air Bonding uses two-sided adhesives to bond the touch panel and LCD layers together from four sides. It creates air gap causing reflection leaving lower visual performance compare to optical bonding.

Optical Bonding Technology

Optical Bonding involves attaching the cover lens onto the LCD display with optical adhesives to achieve optimum sunlight readability, reduce dust contamination and internal vapor condensation.

The Advantages of Optical Bonding

Due to an optical bonding of LCD to the touch panel, there is no air gap in between to effectively reduce refraction of external light.

• Reduce refraction of light
• Reduce display weight
• Reduce battery consumption
• Maximum dust & moisture protection
• Enhance mechanical strength & shock/vibe performance

Check out MACTRON GROUP’s (MTG) MCA Series & MAV Series, we proudly incorporate optical bonding technology to deliver interactive displays with the best user experience available and provide a better viewing and touch experience for everyone.

What is CANBus and What the Advantages Are?

What is CANBus?

CAN stands for Controller Area Network, the protocol is designed to allow microcontrollers and devices on the network to communicate with each other within a vehicle without a host computer. It is based on the message transmission protocol.

TOP 4 Benefits of CANBus

Simple & Low Cost	Fully Centralized	Extremely Robust	Efficient
Communicate via a single CAN system which can reducing error, weight, wiring and costs.	CANBus provides one point-of-entry to communicate with all network and enabling central diagnostics.	The system is robust towards electric disturbances and electromagnetic interference.	CAN messages frames are prioritized by ID where the top priority will get bus access, without causing interruption of other frames.

CANBus Application Usage

At the beginning of design, it used multiplexed communication cables in the CANBus technology for vehicles to reduce the consumption of wires. However, CANBUS can be used by other industries lately.

1D vs. 2D Barcodes: When and Why to Use Each Type

 

Difference Between 1D and 2D Barcode Scanning?

1D scanner only reads linear or 1D barcodes. Its scan distance can be greater than 60cm. 1D scanners are commonly used in retail stores and supermarkets.	2D scanner reads both 1D and 2D barcodes. It can also read damaged or poorly printed barcodes which is ideal for some harsh environment, such as factories, kitchens.

Feature	1D	2D
Reads 1D barcodes
Reads 2D barcodes
Improves accuracy
Processes barcodes faster
Scan codes on reflective surfaces
Decodes barcode from any angle
Reads damaged or poorly printed barcodes
Capture digital images of documents and signatures

How Are 1D & 2D Barcodes Used?

1D Barcodes are typically used for identifying items or assets that are associated with variable information that resides in a database.

2D Barcodes can be used to mark very small items. In some cases, these types of codes have been directly etched into auto parts or certain 2D omnidirectional barcodes for small, hard-to-scan surgical items.
