Instant Touchscreen
The AirBar sensor gives PCs touchscreen capabilities. Compatible with most Chromebook notebooks and PCs running Windows 8.1 or 10, AirBar lets users quickly and easily activate touch functionalities on their laptops. The thin black bar magnetically attaches to the bottom of a laptop display, and the sensor instantly connects through a USB port and requires no software installation or additional configuration. The technology from Neonode emits an invisible light field over a laptop screen that senses touch from fingers, gloves or even a paintbrush. It is available to fit 13.3-inch, 14-inch and 15.6-inch screens.
