Touch
You can do everything on the display that you can do at your computer—open and close applications, meet
with others, create new documents or edit existing ones, visit websites, play and manipulate videos, and so
on—by touching the display’s surface.
You can use an array of gestures within applications, including panning, scaling, rotating and zooming in and
out.
The display’s advanced HyPr Touch™ (Hybrid Precision Touch) with InGlass™ touch technology provides a
natural, intuitive writing and touch experience with high accuracy and low latency. In addition, its Silktouch
ultra-smooth finish allows you to use the display for hours without finger burn.
Writing, drawing and erasing
The display comes with a black pen and a red pen that you can
use to write or draw on the screen.
The display also includes two erasers, which you can use to
erase digital ink.
With Object Awareness, the display responds automatically to
the tool or object you’re using, whether it’s a pen, finger,
eraser, or palm. The display’s Pen ID and Simultaneous Tool
Differentiation technologies allow multiple people to write
independently and simultaneously, using different colored ink.
