Interactive glass products are used extensively across many industries and have applications ranging from advertising to design and engineering. One way to instantly attract the attention of an audience in a meeting is to showcase images or sound bites by navigating through a series of touch screen panel prompts. The injection of innovative technology is one way to impress potential clients with a high-definition and high-clarity presentation or demonstration. Interactive Touch frames from Glasstek, one of the premier glass technology companies in the US, come with a six-point touch system as standard. This configuration can be upgraded and made more complex by increasing the number of points to ten, twenty, or even forty. Interactive glass products are created by applying a film onto an existing glass panel or part of an existing glass panel. A large monitor can be transformed into an interactive touch monitor.

In a technologically advanced world where everyone wants the latest news as it happens and the ability to multitask wherever they are, it's good to know that developments in glass technology keep pace with the most imaginative and practical applications for the home and the office. One increasingly popular glass product is privacy glass, or smart glass, sometimes called smartglass. This product actually comprises a smart film layer which is applied to an existing glass surface and it can be turned from transparent to opaque with a tap on a smartphone or the flick of a switch. For sleek apartments where the glass windows are floor to ceiling and the views are a major feature, this offers the homeowner the ability to make the room private without cluttering the apartment design with shutters, blinds, or drapes. The same application suits a high-rise office building where the sunlight can be controlled and managed quickly and efficiently. Without requiring a lengthy dismantling and glass replacement process, most installations of the smart film can be done within a single day. The application process is very similar to adding a tint to a window. GlassTek's Colorado based in-house production facility not only ensures a top quality product is delivered every time, their team of experts are on hand to offer advice when selecting a product and excellent customer care following installation.

Wall-mounted screens in an office provide a functional and practical focal point for meetings and demonstrations, and are an impressive marketing tool able to deliver a polished presentation, with the added advantage of being able to improvise as the meeting digresses, using the various touch screen prompts to pursue a new thread of the conversation, clearly a much more effective and adaptable format than a fixed presentation. Make the most of crisp displays with vibrant and colorful images to impress potential clients.
