Asus R2H as Touch Screen

Post by Digit »

Since a couple of days i'm the new owner of r_255's Asus R2H.
I wanted to see if it's suitable to operate as Touchscreen. It has a native screen resolution of 800x480, big enough i'd say.
There are a few disadvantages to the R2H, the biggest being that it's quite noisy compared to my Asus TOP. The second is that you have to use the stylus or have really long nails [:)]

This evening i've made a small application to do some testing; with what i had already made for the Asus TOP this was an easy thing to do. I stopped after i finished the first screen with some buttons to switch some lights. Here's what it looks like:

So far it looks nice to me, so the R2H is probably going to get a permanent place somewhere in the house.
