Glass:
The glass is the substrate or surface for all optical components
Sensor Module
Sensor Module: The Sensor is a module featuring, high accuracy, high resolution and high
sensitivity. Each system includes four optical Sensors placed on the corners of the panel (In two
sensor systems, the sensors are placed on the top corners of the panel). These Sensors are
assembled on the glass
Rod
The Rod is an optical element that distributes the light uniformly. The Rod is inserted into the Rod
Holder
Rod Holder
The Rod Holder encases the Rod and protects the Rod from humidity, dust and particles. It is
assembled on the glass
Led Wire
The LED Wire is a cable that connects all IR LEDs
mounted on their
PCBs (LED PCBs). The wire is
connected to the PCB Controller. The number of LED PCBs depends on screen size and screen type
