New interactive pen display for geophysicists
This firm's first full HD interactive pen display, the DTU-2231, has direct pen-on-screen input.
It is designed to optimize efficiency and productivity by allowing geophysicists, other oil and gas specialists, planners, engineers, cartographers, and emergency responders to quickly and easily create original content, edit maps as well as manage, analyze, and share geographic information.
Featuring a 211⁄2 in. wide screen liquid crystal display with 1920 by 1080 resolution, the DTU-2231 broadens geographic information system data across organizations and helps reduce work cycle times, the firm points out. The company says its goal is to positively impact and elevate the way professionals interact with their digital data, especially those working with Redlands, Calif.-based ESRI applications. ESRI has worked with this company to integrate interactive pen display technology with new software capabilities in ArcGIS 10. This integration will enable designers to quickly sketch directly on screen and evaluate the consequences of alternative design solutions. The availability of a user friendly pen-based work flow facilitates decision making.
Other features include:
• Cordless, battery-free pen: With 512 levels of pressure sensitivity, the pen provides a tip switch, two customizable side switches, an eraser switch, and tether hole.
• Built-in USB hub: It has two user-accessible USB ports
• Video pass-through: DVI-I (digital or analog) input, DVI-I output, and video scaler.
• Flat work surface: It has a 16:9 aspect ratio and adjustable stand and offers antireflective treatment
