I went to Lowe’s to look at refrigerators with my mom because her’s is having issues, and I saw a Samsung model that had capacitive buttons to open the doors.

Like, you could still reach into the handle, not touch the control, and pull it open, normally. But for some reason, there was also this little pad inside the handle where, if your touched it, the door would pop itself open.

Like what????? In what world are people complaining about the “strength” it requires to open a refrigerator door?? And all the unreliable mechanical complexity that adds?? Not to mention, it wasn’t very useful because of the slight delay between touching it, opening itself, and then you opening it the rest of the way was longer than just opening it by brute force. Like… what’s even the point? Companies are really scraping the bottom of the barrel, these days, ffs.

A Practical Guide to Customizing TFT LCD Displays for Embedded Projects

When designing an embedded system, picking the right display module is more than a technical choice — it directly shapes how users interact with your product.

From medical devices and HMIs to industrial controllers and smart panels, standard TFT LCD modules may not always be enough. That’s where custom displays come in — offering flexibility in electrical interface, mechanical layout, and visual performance.

This guide covers the five key areas you should consider when customizing a TFT LCD for your embedded project.

1. FPC Layout and Pin Mapping

The Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) connects your LCD module to the mainboard, and in custom designs, this interface is often the first thing to change.

Ask yourself:

Do you need a uniquely shaped or angled FPC to fit inside your housing?

Are there ICs, resistors, or other components on the backlight or CTP that require mechanical clearance?

Is your SBC’s connector pinout compatible with the LCD’s FPC layout?

A mismatch here can lead to signal errors, mechanical stress, or even damage to components.

2. Backlight Brightness and Color Temperature

Not all embedded devices live under the same lighting.

If your product is used outdoors or in industrial lighting, consider high-brightness backlights (≥800 nits). For environments where aesthetics and color warmth matter (like smart mirrors or indoor kiosks), choose the right LED color temperature:

3000K (Warm White): Soft, suitable for medical or ambient lighting

5000K (Neutral White): Balanced tone, accurate colors

6500K+ (Cool White): Sharper, more industrial feel

A poorly lit display can make a great device feel underwhelming.

3. Touch Panel Shape and Bonding Options

If your display includes a touch interface, customizing the Capacitive Touch Panel (CTP) is critical.

Typical customizations include:

Round corners, logo cutouts, button holes

Bonding methods:

Optical bonding: Improves visibility, reduces reflections, stronger seal

Air bonding: More affordable and easier to assemble

The bonding method directly impacts touch accuracy, display clarity, and long-term reliability.

4. Surface Treatments: AG, AR, and AF

For devices exposed to bright light or frequent finger contact, display surface treatments make a noticeable difference.

AG (Anti-Glare): Scatters reflected light, improving readability

AR (Anti-Reflection): Enhances contrast in sunlight or strong lighting

AF (Anti-Fingerprint): Reduces smudges, improves touch feel

Combining AG+AF is a common choice for public-facing touchscreen displays.

Industrial Displays for Smart Operations

In today’s fast-paced manufacturing and automation environments, having the right technology is crucial to maintain productivity and efficiency. Two essential tools that continue to shape industrial innovation are the industrial monitor and the touchscreen embedded PC. These devices are not only revolutionizing how operators interact with systems but also how industries achieve operational accuracy and control.

𝑷𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑹𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒍𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝑰𝒏𝒅𝒖𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒍 𝑴𝒐𝒏𝒊𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒔

Unlike traditional consumer-grade screens, industrial monitors are purpose-built to withstand challenging environments. From high-vibration settings in factories to exposure to dust, moisture, and extreme temperatures, these monitors are designed with rugged durability in mind. Their ability to deliver clear visuals under harsh lighting or variable weather conditions makes them invaluable for both indoor and outdoor industrial applications.

Furthermore, industrial monitors are often integrated with mounting options such as panel, VESA, or rack mounts, which offer flexibility for installation across a variety of settings including control panels, production lines, and inspection stations. Their long product lifecycles and minimal maintenance requirements make them a cost-effective choice for industries ranging from oil and gas to pharmaceuticals and logistics.

𝑬𝒏𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑰𝑶𝑻 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝑻𝒐𝒖𝒄𝒉𝒔𝒄𝒓𝒆𝒆𝒏 𝑬𝒎𝒃𝒆𝒅𝒅𝒆𝒅 𝑷𝑪𝒔

As industries shift toward automation and digitization, the demand for advanced computing systems has grown significantly. A touchscreen embedded PC offers a compact, efficient solution for managing machinery and data input directly from the production floor. These systems combine processing power with space-saving design, allowing them to be installed directly into operator panels or machine enclosures.

What makes touchscreen embedded PCs especially valuable is their versatility. They are built to handle data-intensive operations, integrate with sensors, and communicate with cloud-based platforms for real-time monitoring and analytics. Whether used in a warehouse to track inventory or in a manufacturing unit to control robotic arms, they provide an intuitive, touch-based interface that simplifies operations for users.

Modern touchscreen embedded PC often run on energy-efficient processors and support various operating systems such as Windows, Linux, or Android. Their robust design includes fanless architecture, which reduces the risk of contamination and failure in sensitive environments like food processing or clean rooms.

𝑰𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒈𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝑺𝒐𝒍𝒖𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝑴𝒐𝒅𝒆𝒓𝒏 𝑰𝒏𝒅𝒖𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒚

The combination of an industrial monitor and a touchscreen embedded PC creates a powerful human-machine interface (HMI) solution. This setup not only allows operators to visualize data in real-time but also to interact with machines using easy-to-use graphical interfaces. This human-centric design leads to faster decision-making and reduces the learning curve for technicians and engineers.

These integrated systems are scalable, enabling industries to expand or upgrade their operations without significant downtime. Additionally, with increased focus on cybersecurity and remote access, many touchscreen embedded PCs now come with enhanced security protocols, ensuring data protection and safe remote troubleshooting.

𝑭𝒖𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆-𝑹𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒚 𝑻𝒆𝒄𝒉𝒏𝒐𝒍𝒐𝒈𝒚

As industrial ecosystems grow more interconnected, choosing devices that are future-ready is vital. The industrial monitor continues to evolve with features like 4K resolution, sunlight-readable displays, and capacitive touch options. Meanwhile, touchscreen embedded PCs are becoming smarter, integrating AI capabilities and edge computing functions that allow real-time decision-making without relying on cloud latency.

These technologies are not just passive tools; they are proactive elements in driving digital transformation. From smart manufacturing plants to intelligent transportation systems, their role in the industrial landscape is indispensable.

⚠️ CW: Mention of Meta products, mining accident, mild gore ⚠️

Hitting Delete rather than Disable on your Threads and Facebook accounts really does feel like this.

To run with the American Psycho reference, read this in a cinematic Patrick Bateman voice: "I clicked Delete using an Apple Magic Mouse with capacitive touch controls that create an elegant, unified, single top-surface, with no unsightly button seams. It's customized with hand-trimmed Teflon tape placed over the glide pads, for nearly silent movement across my desk. My mouse pad; a virtually paper-thin optical precision pad by 3M, squared perfectly to the edge of my desk. I watch as it takes 30 days for the accounts to die."

[hairbrainedprojects]

Every time I hear about a new development in cars I get more disappointed. Capacitive touch without a screen? Absolutely disgusting. Things I want in a car:

Steering wheel: Big, taken from a bus

Shift knob: Train throttle

Parking brake (redundant braking systems don't require an emergency brake):

Clock:

AC fan control:

AC temperature adjustment: (3 position marine toggle switch that returns to center)

By no means a complete list, add your own. Perhaps instead of a breathalyzer, you have to score 20 on bop it. All I'm saying is that a car is a tool and tools should feel so natural to use that they become a part of the worker, moving together and enhancing one a other's skills. A smith is just as incapable of shaping metal as a hammer is of swinging itself. The two must agree to move as one for a mutual goal

[lovelanguageisolate]

Nothing I love more, and nothing that less inclines me to commit acts of domestic terrorism, than when I'm trying to fill out health insurance intake forms and both my insurer and the provider add fun little surprises to the web UX like turning the control key into a reload button or using JavaScript to keep my group ID extra secure from ne'er-do-wells who want to trick me into copying and pasting it.

Honestly, I've never had so much faith in the ingenuity, fearless willingness to tackle challenging technical problems in the service of me the user, and sense of mission of my fellow software engineers, nor so much confidence in the thoughtfulness and humanity of large organizations a badly confused person might mistake for the point at infinity where the parallel lines of greed and sheer incompetence finally meet.

And, lest this all be so easy that it feels boring, in the same way that playing tic tac toe is, I can always count on the track pad of my contracting employer (whom I'm not taking insurance from since they understandably thought defaulting a six figure professional into an ACA-complaint plan that actually covers things like catastrophes was rather austentatious indeed—what next, flying around on Air Force jets on the taxpayer dime like John fucking Sununu?) operating in some truly interesting ways that challenge both the process of filling out said forms and my understanding of just what sorts of properties human beings have been able to wring out of things like the Hall effect and capacitive touch sensors.

Terry and Julia Group Project 1

Video Walkthrough LinkImage of the Project

The last two weeks Terry and I worked on our project called “Hit the Dick” (see video walkthrough above). 

Aim of the Game:Each player has one strap-on game controller containing an Airpump, a rgb-LED, as well as a capacitive touch sensor attached to the tip. The game starts by randomly choosing one player whose strap-on will light up green after a random delay. That player has to hit the other players strap on within 3 seconds. If the player succeeds in hitting it before the opponent has dodged, the players starp-on will fill with a little bit of air. Players then take turn until one of the players has gained 5 points. 

Hardware:LED: serves to indicate the current state of the game: Who is hitting, who has to dodge. AirPump that fills Silicone strap-on with air: Serves as a funny way to indicate the players points. The higher the Point count, the “higher” the strap-on will be (lol).Capacitive Touch Sensor: detects the slapping

Process:Terry and I ran into a few difficulties during building this project: Here are some interesting findings summed up:

Building the silicone strap-ons: It was really challenging to create 3D printed negatives that would serve as the mold for the strap-ons because we needed to make sure we had enough hallow space for the air to fill. 

Getting the Airpumps to work: After some testing, we realized that the Arduino does not have enough power to power the Airpumps using the GPIO pins. Hence, we ended up using a Relay connected to an external 5V 2A power source!

[quartz-components]

The TTP224 is a 4-Channel Touch Sensor, meaning it has four touchpads. Whenever a capacitive load such as human hands is brought in proximity with the sense pad, the sensor then senses the change in capacitance and activates the switch. Custom sense-pads can be made from nearly any conductive material and these sensors can detect touch through thin layers of non-conductive materials such as glass, plastic, fabric or even wood. Each Touchpad has its respective output pin when the user touches a pad, the corresponding output pin will go high. It is very easy to interface with microcontrollers like Arduino to control different applications as a switch. It can be used in home automation, motor control, Relay control, etc. the module basically gets rid of the push button troubles.
