TA Develops Large-Format Multi-Touch for the Navy
TA's e-Panel multi-touch technology allows multiple users to interact intuitively with the graphics and action on a computer screen without using a mouse, menu, or keypad. Navy planners on shore use a highly collaborative working group system involving large-scale paper plans of carrier spaces and foam cut-outs to represent aircraft, support equipment, and cargo. This system lacks the capability of accurate archiving and internet collaboration, both of which will be enabled with ePanel.
