What's 'thinner' than a thin client? What's less expensive, more versatile and more advanced than a thin client? What's universal and not proprietary like a thin client is? That would be an X terminal display. A ViewTouch display is a touchscreen X terminal. It has graphics, network connectivity and a bit of software called 'X server'. It works much the way a TV does except that it's built for software and viewer interaction. The software that you see on a ViewTouch display originates at other locations which are under the experienced management of experienced software and network professionals. Years ago people would confuse an X terminal with text terminals and call it a dumb terminal. What an X terminal is goes WAY beyond what any text terminal could ever do. An X terminal connects you and hundreds, even thousands of your friends and co-workers, all at one time, directly and securely, to applications that are running on super computers. A ViewTouch display is an X terminal that brings to each of many viewers simultaneously the full power of whatever software is on the network. It does this without burdening the viewer with any of the cost, complexity, management, obligations or requirements associated with the operation of the software. A smart display offers all of the benefits but none of the burdens and difficulties associated with producing it. A ViewTouch display is interactive, fully personal, specifically useful and beneficial to all. Each person's interaction with the interface communicates information to others in the workgroup that helps them to do their work or live their life with more knowledge about things that they need to be aware of. |
