Most of the time, when you see someone using a touch-screen monitor, it’s usually a cashier at a retail establishment or a restaurant. However, touch screen monitors are useful for other applications besides ringing up sales or taking orders. For instance, touch screens are useful for kiosk systems or those used in small or confined spaces – like a kitchen counter – where using a mouse would be cumbersome or difficult. Some newer touch screen monitors ship with USB interfaces for the touch – mouse – interface, and connecting them to a computer is relatively straightforward. However, some other touch-screen monitors may have only an older serial connector type for the touch feature. Consequently, connecting and using an older touch screen monitor with a serial interface might require an adapter when paired with a newer computer. Tips Writer Bio
