Touchscreens and surfaces are sleek and intuitive, but some functions still call for the precision and tactile feedback of mechanical controls, like adjusting audio volume or climate settings in a car. That’s where aXiom’s Dial on Display comes in, combining the elegance of a touchscreen with the familiarity of a rotary dial.
Why Dial on Display?
Integration: Mechanical integration isn't required, and dials can simply be affixed to the display or surface.
Reliable: Dials ensure a predictable and reliable performance.
Flexible Functionality: Supports multiple modes, from basic rotational features, to integration with force sensing, multi-touch, and Pilot ID.
aXiom also supports Press-on-Dial functionality. This allows each dial to detect three distinct user interactions:
Hover detection as the user approaches
Touch-on-dial when contact is made
Press-on-dial when pressure is applied
All these features apply when the dial is rotated in any position.
Up to 5 dials can be independently supported per aXiom device.
This capability is compatible with standard trans cap sensors, including the TouchNetix Chrominance range, and does not require force sensing.
