Global Retail Touch Screen Display Market 2014-2018 with 3M, Atmel, Chimei Innolux, Nissha Printing, Sharp & Wintek Dominating
M2 - Wed Apr 02, 8:04AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/8w96r7/global_retail) has announced the addition of the "Global Retail Touch Screen Display Market 2014-2018 with 3M, Atmel, Chimei Innolux, Nissha Printing, Sharp & Wintek Dominating" report to their offering. One of the main drivers contributing to the market's growth is the use of hi-tech touchscreen display. With technological advancements, retailers across the globe are customizing touchscreen displays to provide customers with a personalized experience. Commenting on the report, an analyst from the team said: The development of multi-touchscreens in retail touchscreen display is one of the major trends witnessed in the Global Retail Touchscreen Display market. The implementation of multi-touch technology in touchscreen solutions is likely to enhance user experience by enabling end-users to operate the product with multiple touch points on the screen. This multi-touch technology is an added advantage to touchscreen solutions. Touch panel display manufacturers are increasingly adopting the multi-touch panel technology. For instance, TPK's projective capacitive technology has multi-touch functionalities. In addition, Fujitsu Components America's multi-touch panel displays provide multi-touch functionalities along with other competitive features that are available in resistive and projected capacitive technologies. The high usage of touchscreens by consumers has driven vendors to focus on the development of multi-touchscreen solutions for retail display. Further, the report states that one of the key challenges in this market is the increasing cost of production. The increasing cost of raw materials is one of the main factors leading to the increase in the overall cost of production. As a result of this, the profitability of vendors is becoming affected. Key vendors dominating this space are: - 3M Co. - Atmel Corp. - Chimei Innolux Corp. - Cypress Semiconductor Corp. - Nissha Printing Co. Ltd. - Promethean World plc - Sharp Corp. - TPK Holding Co. Ltd. - Wintek Corp. Key Topics Covered: 01. Executive Summary 02. List of Abbreviations 03. Scope of the Report 04. Market Research Methodology 05. Introduction 06. Market Landscape 07.
