DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dublin - Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/blv4m9/touch_screen_modul) has announced the addition of the "Touch Screen Modules: Technologies, Markets, Forecasts 2012-2022" report to their offering.
Revenue Of The Touch Screen Market Expected To Be Us$14Bn In 2012 And To Triple In The Next Decade
Touch screen interfaces are becoming increasingly common in mobile consumer devices, such as mobile phones, tablets and e-books.
Along with the leading technology, projected capacitive touch, the industry has a dozen other ways of building a touch screen, but not all of them are suitable for the rapidly growing consumer electronics market that needs high performance and high clarity. Every single one of the 15 different touch technologies has its own strengths and weaknesses and is therefore used in very different applications.
The next game changer will be alternatives for indium tin oxide (ITO) widely used as touch screen sensor material, which is comparably expensive due to the high price of the rare raw material indium.
Publication Overview:
The report provides 10 year forecasts for the touch screen market by applications and by technology, giving you an overview of the primary use markets, applicability of the different technologies and application trends. In addition to this, there are chapters on key mainstream and emerging technologies and their future trends all pulled together with summary charts, graphs and profiles of latest company activity.
Readership:
Those developing or making touch screens and transparent conductive films (TCF) of all types. Other interested parties such as chemical companies, equipment manufacturers, technology researchers, investors and supports of the industry.
