Application

StealthTouch™ has a flexible design capable to fit into various
applications/markets, such as fine dining restaurants, fast food
chains, hospitals, doctor's office, Internet browser, information
kiosks in hotels, manufacturing automation, and the likes.

1. Hospitality (food service)

Touchscreen systems have helped improve productivity
and service in the food service industry. A waiter/waitress
does not have to run to the kitchen anymore after taking the
order. He/She will just enter the orders on the screen, and the
orders will be printed to the respective food preparer. Drink
orders will be printed in the bar area, while main dish will be
printed in the kitchen area. At the end of the day, the manager
can print reports on total sales and inventory level.

Restaurants or fine dinings are also realizing the benefits
of using the computer to manage their labor scheduling and
inventory. Since counter space is very precious in these
establishments, 14" or 15" monitors are not suitable. LCD
touch systems have become the standard equipment in these
places for order taking and table management.

2. Information Kiosk

Kiosks offer an inexpensive way to provide or collect
information in public places, such as shopping malls, airports,
museums, or even hotel lobbies. StealthTouch™ can be setup
as a compact self-help information provider in these public
places, such as listing available stores and their store numbers
in a shopping mall, or information on available hotels from the
airport, or interactive story teller in a museum. In a hotel
lobby, a StealthTouch™ can be used to promote places of
interest for the tourists.

Large corporation with scattered sites will also benefit
from kiosk technology. Training new employees can be done
using an interactive touchscreen, instead of sending a training
staff to various branch offices.

3. Internet/Entertainment

Internet access is another market that should take
advantage of the touchscreen technology. A StealthTouch™ can
be setup in the airports or hotel lobbies for travellers to send
or receive e-mails, usually at a small fee charged to their credit
cards. Or they can do shopping in the internet, such as sending
flowers or gifts for their loved ones while they are away from
home. Users of these internet-touchscreen terminals will touch
the appropriate buttons on the screen to surf the internet. A
virtual keyboard will pop-up on the screen where users can use
to type by touching the keys on the screen. A Cyber caf�s or
clubs are another venues where StealthTouch™ will be
installed for entertainment purposes, such as playing games.

4. Labor Management System

More and more touchscreens are installed in a
manufacturing plant to let employees clock in, clock out, and
check for total hours they have worked or vacation time left.
Furthermore, a StealthTouch™ can used to collect
work-in-process information, such as productivity level on
certain production line, or how many jobs can be done in a
given time. Employees will be able to use touchscreen to check
for any messages from upper management (thru internal e-mail
system.). The touchscreen system is usually tied to the
company's main computer system for payroll processing.

5. Automated Payment System/Banking

StealthTouch™ can be setup in a bank to serve as
automated teller system. A customer can walk to the system,
swipe his/her bank card, and inquire account information or
make deposits. Customers can also use the system to make
payment for utility bills, such as electricity and telephone bills.
