cost of touch screen monitors for museums in stock

I get this question from friends and clients fairly regularly. What kind of recommendations do you have for a touch screen in an exhibit for my budget?

I originally posted this on June 21, 2017, last week I did a presentation at the New Mexico Association of Museums conference and wanted embed my presentation. I"ve also updated the content to include some more ideas.

The prices below do not include the prices of software development because that depends on the complexity of your project and who you hire. Here are a price ranges to give you an idea:

Pros: Basically free - this is even in a price point where decently well-off hobbyists can get in on the action. They"re also easy to purchase and replace if something happens to them.

Cons: The Pi is a wonderful thing for the price, but it isn"t a super powerful computer. You won"t be able to run really fancy, graphically intensive programs on this. Also, the screen isn"t big - only 7" diagonal. Finally, I am not sure I"m ready to guarantee that this is museum quality hardware that can withstand children banging on it every day.

Cons: I"ve heard a lot bad about using them in exhibits when they"re mounted. They tend to overheat and break down. They"re really not made for that kind of thing. Also has a small screen.

Project Ideas: So they tend to work pretty well as reference guides for docents, but that can also backfire. I"ve been to museums where instead of interfacing with visitors, the docents have their nose down on the tablet and are just reading stuff to them. It"s pretty silly, frankly. Visitors are also capable of Googling things.

Pros: Small and inexpensive. Great for streaming media, also can purchase in Enterprise Mode if you want to manage a bunch of them or unlock other options. They"re compatible with some touchscreens, but you"re likely better off using something else if you"re trying to create a touchscreen kiosk program.

Project Ideas: One particular project that I know this is being used for is the ViewSpace theater in the New Mexico Museum of Natural History & Science. The old computer died, so now they"re streaming the content using a Chromebox.

Cons: I"ve seen these get broken into a lot in exhibits. Apparently there are some better ways to lock them down now, though. Small screen. If you want to have your app run on it, you have to go through the Apple Store even if you don"t want it to run anywhere else.

Cons: Make sure you build a good case for this thing. I"ve seen people break into these with a flash drive if you don"t block all the ports. Also not a good choice if you want a huge screen.

Project Ideas: Nice educational games, video viewers, etc. Maybe an app that uses computer vision with the built-in webcam that some of them have. At this point, the only limit is your imagination. :-)

Pros: This is a really unique piece of hardware that allows you to include physical pieces in your interactive. You also get two touchscreens for the price of one, which is a good deal. There are free apps that you can download from the Sprout marketplace that are pretty neat - there"s a measuring app, an app that allows you to create stop-motion videos, one that lets you convert currency, and many more.

Cons: Sometimes difficult to work with. On the first version, the hardware was a little finicky. I had to have one of the touch mats replaced, but on the other hand, the support staff was really friendly and mailed the parts right away. Hopefully they"ve improved that. Also, the buttons to turn it on and off are in a really conspicuous place, so you should be mindful of how you use it in your space.

Project Ideas: 3D building applications, walk visitors through assembling items, Allow visitors to walk a figurine through a 3D model of a historical site - lots of cool stuff. Also see Sim Pueblo

Cost: Touch screens range from ~$250 for the smallish ones (in which case you should just buy an all-in-one PC) to $1600 for a 55" to $11k for an 80" one!

There are a lot of options for computers. You can get any tower to work with these, or you can look at a small form-factor computer like an Intel NUC. Ballparks - $500 - $800

Pros: You can get exactly what you need to run really awesome software that makes a huge visual impact. They"re also flat screens, so you have a lot of options for embedding it in the wall and making a seamless experience.

Interactive Projections are one of those wonderful and flashy fun things that people love. One of the great things about them is that they don"t really need to cost as much as you think - you just need a projector, a computer, and a 3D camera.

Cons: Software cost will be a little bit higher than a typical touchscreen because you have to spend more time on the installation and testing. Don"t expect to get perfect touch capability unless you buy an expensive all-in-one setup. This is better for more experiential interactives. Also, make sure you plan this for a dark room - if you want to put it somewhere near a window, expect to pay A LOT of money for a projector!

Project Ideas: One of my favorite things I"ve seen with this is an interactive sandbox (shown above). You move the sand around with your hands and then it projects a topographical map on it. A fun program that my colleagues at Highlands did for a museum in Las Cruces is a thing where you step on dinosaur footprints to learn more about what dinosar made them. All kinds of good stuff!

A short-throw projector. You want a short-throw projector so you can mount it close to the wall and not worry about people"s shadows on the projection. I found a bunch of them on B&H photo. Look in to find the ones that are supposed to last a long time. The last thing you want to do is buy a cheap one and have it burn out in a month.

Pros: A lot of software possibilities. Some tables are safe for drinks, and Ideum"s even support tangible objects. They allow for a lot of interaction between visitors, also.

Cons: Expensive, debatable how long they last. I"ve heard that they aren"t projected to last much more than 3 years, but you can replace the touch screen if you need to.

If you really want to make a statement and put something huge in your space, think about a touch wall. They"re not as limited by light as a projection, and they"ll definitely turn heads. These can either be purchased as straight - up video or as touchscreens.

Cost: Goes up exponentially! You"re looking at $50k - 100k for the screens alone. You also need to get a beefy computer with a really beefy graphics card to be able to handle running a program on multiple screens simultaneously.

Cons: Very expensive! You"ll need to talk to a company that specializes in them. For my research, I talked to Planar Technology and they were helpful and great even though they knew I couldn"t buy anything. They make professional grade products, which is important. You don"t want to spend tens of thousands of dollars on a product that will break or not be able to hold up to the rigors of a museum environment.

Museums, art galleries, and special exhibits are using an ever-increasing number of LCD video monitors and touch screens. Use LCD monitors to update or enhance exhibits with live video clips. Similarly, some cycle through a series of still images. Additionally, in attempts to provide a historical perspective, they often choose to use 4:3 aspect ratio monitors.

Firstly, TRU-Vu also provides 4:3 monitors (square monitors) to mimic old television sets.  Secondly, show classic films without distortion or annoying black bars.  Furthermore, the aspect ratio of a LCD display is the proportional relationship of its width compared to its height. The two numbers are commonly separated by a colon. The most common aspect ratios are 16:9 (aka widescreen) and 4:3 (aka square monitor, such as old CRT’s and TV’s). It is best to choose a monitor with the same aspect ratio as your video signal. However, you cannot customize a monitor’s native aspect ratio, so it is critical to know the aspect ratio of your incoming video signal beforehand.

For more modern displays, TRU-Vu provides 16:9 aspect ratio widescreen monitors. These provide the advantages of higher-resolution, digital video inputs, wider viewing angles, and greater longevity.

High brightness Sunlight Readable displays are used in outdoor or very brightly lit indoor areas. With over 1,000 nits of brightness, TRU-Vu Sunlight Readable displays are four times brighter than typical LCD monitors. These high brightness monitors are also used to produce stunning images with maximum visual impact in indoor areas, where maximum impact is desired. TRU-Vu Touch screen monitors are used for interactive displays, control, ticketing kiosks, or communication. Museums choose industrial-grade monitors and touch screens due to their ability to withstand abuse from high numbers of users and their long expected life cycle.

Museum curators often have very specific design concepts for their unique new displays. TRU-Vu Monitors has partnered with numerous prestigious museums and exhibit houses throughout the U.S. and Canada to produce one-of-a-kind custom monitor solutions. These have ranged from modern LCD panels housed in traditional CRT-type enclosures, to traditional 4:3 aspect ratio monitors with modern digital interfaces and state of the art controls.  See some of our most recent collaborations with others in the industry.

Something we’re asked quite often over here at blackbox-av is “what’s the best type of touchscreen technology for use in a museum/heritage environment”, so we thought why not write a post that answers that question!

There are currently 4 main categories of touchscreen technology, Capacitive, Resistive, Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) and Infrared. Although there’s a new kid on the block called Optical Imaging which is gaining in popularity but hasn’t really taken over the more conventional technologies yet, you should certainly watch this space though.

A capacitive touch screen is a control display that uses the conductive touch of a human finger or a specialized device for input.When a capacitive panel is touched, a small amount of charge is drawn to the point of contact, which becomes a functional capacitor.

The change in the electrostatic field is measured to find the location. In some designs, circuits located at each corner of the panel measure the charge and send the information to the controller for processing. In multi-touch screens, sensors are arranged in a grid to enable more complex input.

With resistive technology the main screen is covered with three layers. Two layers are placed over the screen and kept slightly apart, one is conductive and the other resistive, when the screen is touched these panels are pushed together registering the input. A scratch resistant surface completes the setup.

The best thing about resistive touchscreens is their ability to register inputs from any object, be it your finger, a pen or a gloved hand. They are also more accurate than other systems although more prone to damage and less responsive to a lighter touch.

When most people think of Infrared touchscreens they think of the classic 1980’s computers with orange/green text and a massive frame around the monitor, the fact is this technolgy still very much has a place in the modern world, it’s one of the more robust options and works by simply setting up a pattern of criss crossing infrared that when broken registers as an input.

There are a number of drawbacks to this technology however, for example bright lighting can interfere with the beams, as can dust and dirt. It’s most useful for applications outdoors where it can detect any input and not just a ‘conductor’ such as a finger (not in a glove!). However for the average indoor museum exhibit it’s a strong option.

This technology utilises ultrasonic waves that are projected over the front panel, when the panel is touched some of these waves are absorbed and receivers register this change while controllers pinpoint where it happened.

If the panel is touched by a finger which then remains motionless, only the initial touch is registered, this can be a positive or negative depending upon the application, for example it can have an effect on the software used with the screen but makes it perfect for use as a workstation where objects are likely to be rested on the panel, such as a hand or elbow etc.

Until recently this could be a tough question to answer, due to technological restrictions and costs involved, the question of “which touchscreen technology is best for the public environment?”could havebeenanswered in various ways, with the ultimate decision depending on a number of factors.

These days however thanks to technological innovations the answer is practically always Capacitive, there’s a reason almost all modern tablets and phones use this technology. On a larger scale this was once more expensive, so for touch tables you might have been tempted by another option such as Infrared however this is no longer the case.

The only time you will want to use a technology other than Capacitive, is if your touchscreen needs to allow gloved use… for example a touchscreen kiosk installed in an arctic research base…

Science fiction has always served as a window into a potential future, namely in the way of technology. But what was once regulated to episodes of Star Trek is quickly becoming the stuff of reality. Many fixtures of these kinds of shows and books have begun to inspire real-life counterparts, including - but not limited to - touchscreen technology.

One only has to look at how far cell phones have come since their inception. Physical keyboards, like those from BlackBerry, gave people about as much of a solution as is possible for those who found themselves doing more on the devices as they became more advanced. Where tactile options came up short, touchscreens graciously stepped up to bat, providing a much fuller experience. This kind of functionality then spread to tablets, which are considered by many to be rivals of laptops and even standard PCs.

While there are still some things that are best done on a desktop computer, that does not change the fact that many users find themselves longing for the same abilities on their PCs afforded by many of their mobile devices. This is what helped breed the touchscreen monitor market, which has many viable options for people seeking the best of both worlds. With stronger computing power and a finer ability to control actions occurring in the screen, users can get more work done in new and exciting ways.

Traditionally, computer mice are what have allowed us to "touch" in a virtual context, but touchscreen monitors are changing all that. It might be said that the reason that mice were used in the first place was because the technology had not evolved to a responsive enough level to enable that natural solution. Now that people have the touchscreen technology, they want it everywhere.

If one thing is for certain, it is that the burgeoning adoption of touchscreen technology is no fad. Proliferation has already come too far to turn back now, and computer manufacturers are taking notice. Everyone is trying to get a piece of the action, including ELO Touch Solutions, Laiputuo Electronics, Planar, HP, 3M, Touch Systems, ViewSonic, Dell and ACER as well. Getting into the touchscreen monitor game is a no-brainer for the companies involved in this generation of computing. With so many different applications made for touchscreen monitors, options exist for all sorts of interested parties.

Touchscreen monitors are becoming the new standard in both private and enterprise settings. Here are some of the ways they can be leveraged effectively for business: touchscreen monitors for workstations, touchscreen monitors for hospitals, and touchscreen monitors for POS systems.

Newegg offers a large selection of touchscreen monitors which vary according to the type from 5-wire Resistive touchscreen monitors, and Accu Touch touchscreen monitors, to Capacitive touchscreen monitors, and more. Newegg’s wide selections will definitely meet your needs.

Visitors may have appreciated looking, and yet their opportunities to interact, discover, learn and engage were limited. But todaytouch screen solutionsand touch screen kiosks allow museum visitors to interact with exhibitions in ways that could only be imagined. At InTouch we joke with our museum customers that they can now add a new sign “LOOK & DO TOUCH”

Amuseum touch screen kioskis a powerful and effective tool for assisting museum visitors in finding their way to the exhibitions that they are interested in as well as making them aware of other exhibitions that they may not be aware of.

Galleries and museums are now creating virtual touch screen exhibitions where expensive, rare and fragile artefacts, artwork and displays are now presented virtually.

A touch screen display in a museum can bring an exhibit to life in a way that a printed display cannot. Add a map, picture, video, sound or narration. Engage them at a whole new level.

Easy and space effective provision of information in different formats that is suitable for different audiences and demographics (whether they be young children, school groups, adults or experts).

Many manufacturers change their models’ form factor regularly. This means that if you purchase a monitor this year, and then another one next year they are unlikely to match. If you have built one into a display it may not fit. If one breaks, you are likely to get a different look. But at InTouch we rarely change the look and feel.

We back this up with a 3 year 24 x 7 warranty which means that you can expect to run your touch screen monitor day and night, without turning it off, for three years without a problem.

Ask us about one of our customers in Melbourne who ran an exhibition with over 100 screens for over 3 years without a single touch screen failure. (even with daily busloads of school students engaging with them)

Many museums throughout Australia have entrusted InTouch to supply the commercial touch screens for their projects. In 2015 the ACMI in Melbourne worked with us over a 4 year period to rollout an extensive mixture of touch screens throughout their museum – these included 15”, 19”, 22”, 32” and 42” sizes.  To date there has been a 0% failure rate on all screens and the customer is thrilled with the outcome.

Another exciting project was Sydney’s Museum of Contemporary Art (MCA) – they integrated a mix of 22” and 32” into the museum with their major renovation in 2018. The InTouch commercial touch screens were a perfect addition to the newly renovated style with their attractive pure flat edge-to-edge glass and silver trim.

To help guide and educate visitors through their current exhibits, MCA have integrated the InTouch 22” and 32” touch screens throughout the museum. Every detail of the museum’s appearance is important, and the attractive pure flat edge-to-edge industrial glass and brushed silver trim fit nicely into the building’s newly renovated style.

Bare-hand interaction refers to the use of the hands, palms, and fingers mainly for desktop or kiosk-oriented interactions. This type of interaction used to be the traditional touch screen technology that major museums and cultural heritage sites relied on, but now it has been experiencing revolutionary change.

In September 2020, Ideum announced the release of Touchless Design SDK Version 1.0, now available on GitHub. By tracking the visitor"s hand and specific gestures, such as opening and closing, this system gives the user complete control over the mouse without touching the screen tab. Ideum listed equipment and codes needed for the system for free so that museums, cultural organizations, and other public institutions can apply the technology post-pandemic.

Ideum has also been working with the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., to develop a unique touchless kiosk that will guide visitors to enjoy the museum’s collection just by waving their hands. The kiosk will be similar to the traditional touch-screen display at museums, but with Intel RealSense depth camera D435 and Leap Motion controller for touchless gesture recognition. It doesn’t cost thousands of dollars for museums to adopt this new technology; the Intel RealSense depth camera D435 costs around $200 and the Leap Motion controller costs $80.

Some articles hold different opinions on the advantages and disadvantages of gesture-based technology for use in museums and arts organizations. Derpanis mentioned that traditional interfaces and touch-based interactions have reached a bottleneck in application development. Even before the pandemic, users were getting used to touch-based interfaces and sometimes getting bored with these devices or even ignoring them in a museum setting.

Because the application of the technology is relatively limited in museums for now, there are no large-scale statistics or studies on user demographics and experiences, but we can find from some small-scale data summarized by researchers that most users give high ratings for their gesture-based interactive experience, with children being more satisfied than adults. Users give feedback on some of the exhibits produced by Ideum saying that the exhibits are responsive, interactive, entertaining, and fun.

Two of the most obvious advantages of gesture-based interactives are 1.) they are an alternative to the touch screen interactive that might be reluctantly used by the public after the pandemic and 2.) they are more entertaining for the audience and can easily engage users of different ages.

Koutsabasis and Vosinakis suggest that for museums and cultural heritage attractions, the technology can be critical for educational purposes, especially for highlighting intangible aspects of cultural heritage such as habits, rituals, and everyday activities. Instead of using words and paragraphs on touch screens to define these intangible activities, gesture-based interaction is more user-friendly in engaging visitors to experience these intangible cultural heritages.

Additionally, because there are already mature technology companies in this field, the application of this technology is not particularly expensive for museums. According to the information published by Ideum on GitHub, the total price of sensors and cameras required for the application of bare-hand interaction does not exceed $300. Things that require the museum to spend more money may be the display screens and the creative content to be displayed.

Although this technology has many advantages and prospects, it still has some problems. Museums and technical designers still need to pay attention to many points when designing these interactive experiences. Jim Spadaccini, the founder of Ideum, points out that the instruction for gestures must be simple and clear or it will overwhelm visitors. Another concern is the precision of the sensors and the output image. Koutsabasis and Vosinakis mention in their research that users would sometimes experience hand track loss and miss targets during the interaction. Visitors also get easily disappointed when some of their movements do not get recognized, so technical precision is always a fundamental part of the application.

Large interactive displays are becoming useful for businesses in many different industries, from fast food stores to subway stations and car dealerships. As the touch screen market grows, the Crunchy team has noticed some very innovative ways that touch screens are being utilized to connect customers to companies.

Museums have massive amounts of information for visitors with limited space to display all their material. Digital signage displays are extremely useful for museums to add informational depth to exhibits. Last January the Cleveland Museum of Art installed a 40 foot-wide touch screen in their Gallery One. The museum also created an app that allows visitors to customize their museum tours, scan and save their favorite art pieces, and share their interpretations with friends via social media.

Hard Rock International’s use of the Rockwall© is a great example of giant touch screens used wholly for guest entertainment. Not only are guests interacting with the Hard Rock brand, but learning about history and music at the same time!

Huge touch screens are a must have for any trade show booth. In today’s world, every company and brand has a website, and the leading brands have mobile apps and other digital materials to interact with customers. Showing off these assets at trade shows and conferences is a must.

The millennial generation is already accustomed to using touch screens in their everyday life; learning games and apps have exploded in the app store. Bringing touch screens to the classroom is a natural progression of the current learning environment.
