Touchscreens
I'm new to the forum and have joined because of my interest in everything about Home automation. My specific need at this point is to find touchscreens for a project I am currently involved with. This is a pilot project using UPB technology and also PLC controls. I would appreciate any input regarding integrating touchscreen controls to this project. The touchscreens would need to interface with the PLC and also with network based A/V, HVAC, and the UPB. If anyone knows of a touchscreen that is LAN based or wireless I would appreciate some feedback. I have prewired cat5 and 18/2 low voltage cable to the touchscreen locations so this is what I have to work with.

It is very cool that modern technology is fast developing and making our lives here on earth with easy access to the whole world with just a touch of a screen. Having to integrate touchscreen interface with the project is something to look after. I will have to dial and ask some people about their great ideas as well.

My reason for visiting forum
My reason for visiting this forum is exactly the same. I have been quite interested in home automation systems and the lifestyle that comes with the super gadgets that are a part of home automation.
Also a friend of mine is reconstructing his home to include some features of a home automation system and I have been quite impressed by what can be done with home automation systems.
Its a cool thing but expensive as well.

RE:
A touch screen sensor is a clear glass panel with a touch responsive surface. The touch sensor/panel is placed over a display screen so that the responsive area of the panel covers the viewable area of the video screen. There are several different touch sensor technologies on the market today, each using a different method to detect touch input. The sensor generally has an electrical current or signal going through it and touching the screen causes a voltage or signal change. This voltage change is used to determine the location of the touch to the screen.
Re: Touchscreens
Hello,
My first thought is that you can use a normal touchscreen PC. They are very much like tablet PC's, but without the pen and handwriting recongition. Used or older models can be had for very cheap on ebay these days. It would be easy to supply power to the PC over your low-voltage wiring, and the cat5 would be your LAN connection. Mostof these PC's don't even come with a keyboard, they rely on an On-screen keyboard and therefore are very slim. I'm sure you can find a model that would look right at home as a controller on/in your wall.
The customization possible when using a normal windows PC is basically limitless .. whereas a turn-key touch screen will have limitations you have to consider (programming ability, input/output, memory, cost, etc).
If you still want to go the route of a manufactured touchscreen controller.. you could try something like the LeopardII. This interfaces with a PC over a serial connection (the cat5 could be used for that), and does have to be programmed. It can also output X10 directly with a PSC05 ... so you could have it send X10 signals that your custom system could interpret as commands.
If I were you, I would go in the direction of a windows-based touch screen PC. but I will also send one of my friends to this thread. He is a bit more knowledged in all things Home Automation and I am sure he would have additional suggestions for you to consider. Stay tuned for his response
Hope this helps
Touchscreens
I appreciate the input as this is an ongoing on the fly sort of project. We purposely stayed away from the out of the box systems for control so that we are able to modify and tweak for each specific user. As far as a touchscreen PC goes, I am not familiar with these units or where to look for them. I will check ebay as you suggest and will do some digging to see if this is an option. Once again, thanks for the input.jvanz
