I've been researching Zivelo and they are top contender in my short list. Anyone have experience with them? They have an extensive client list, but museums and libraries are suspiciously few. http://www.zivelo.com/

Anyone else using a company they can recommend I would love to have additional choices. Best, Thomas Thomas R.

Denver Art Museum with a question about multi-touch displays (Andrew Edwards) 2. Re: Denver Art Museum with a question about multi-touch displays (mb at michaelborthwick.com.au) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Andrew, These panels are very new and so the lack of reviews is not surprising. In fact this new multitouch series won't be available, in Australia at least, until April this year. For what it is worth I have successfully used 3M's single touch capacitive ChassisTouch panels for over a decade in museum environments and my expectation would be that the company would engineer this new series to the same high standard. If the thermal requirements are respected, it is properly installed and fed clean power then it should offer a long service life. I would suggest you spend some weeks evaluating a loan unit in order to be more confident that it will meet your needs, particularly since this is the first time that 3M are entering the multi (as opposed to single or dual-touch) market. Pay particular attention to the brightness and direction of lighting on the gallery floor in the location where the display will ultimately be installed and test that the viewing angles work for visitors of various heights. All the best with your project, Michael Borthwick Director www.michaelborthwick.com.au ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ mcn-l mailing list mcn-l at mcn.edu http://mcn.edu/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l End of mcn-l Digest, Vol 90, Issue 23 ************************************* _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to mcn-l, the listserv of the Museum Computer Network (http://www.mcn.edu) To post to this list, send messages to: mcn-l at mcn.edu To unsubscribe or change mcn-l delivery options visit: http://mcn.edu/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l The MCN-L archives can be found at: http://toronto.mediatrope.com/pipermail/mcn-l/
