| Light Pen Advantages: |
|
- More Intuitive
As you can imagine, picking up a light pen and pointing it to where you want the cursor to go is a more intuitive way to interact with the computer.
- Operates Through Glass Enclosures
FastPoint offers light pens designed to operate up to 12 inches away from the monitor screen enabling monitors to be placed behind clear glass or
acrylic enclosures for maximum protection.
- Shielded - NEMA12 Rated
FastPoint light pens are shielded against interference from electrostatic discharges (ESD), radio frequencies, and electro-magnetic interference
(EMI) generated by equipment commonly found in industrial environments.
- Industrial Strength Input Device
FastPoint light pens are manufactured in the USA with industrial strength components such as armor cabling and stainless steel barrels. Our optical
switches are tested to exceed 10 million actuations while our connection cables are tested to exceed 2 million bends without failure.
- Enhance Existing CRT's
The light pen is the only add-on input device that gives you direct on-screen input capabilities for your existing CRT monitors while allowing future monitor upgrades without
having to re-purchase another input system.
- Work in Tight Spaces
Many industrial work areas are limited in the amount of available workspace. FastPoint light pens can free up valuable space normally occupied by a traditional mouse.
- Eliminate the Keyboard
A scalable, modular onscreen virtual keyboard is available and is well suited for screens that are housed in protective industrial enclosures.
