BS IEC 62908-1-2 is an international standard that covers terminology and letter symbols for touch and interactive displays, enabling common usage of terms relating to complex functions involving these devices.
BS IEC 62908-1-2 is the first part of the multi-series that provides a list of terminological entries that are frequently used in the literature related to touch and interactive displays in the IEC 62908 series. Terms for various input methods such as touch, hovering, proximity, gesture, eye tracking, and motion recognition are included.
BS IEC 62908-1-2 is applicable to touch displays, interactive displays, and their components.
BS IEC 62908-1-2 on the terminology and letter symbols for touch and interactive displays are useful for:
A touch display is an electronic device that allows the users to input by using touch objects corresponding to the displayed information. An interactive display electronic display device that allows the users to interact with the device by touching or applying other non-physical inputs and gives interactive feedback to the users.
BS IEC 62908-1-2 provides users guidance on terms and definitions for touch displays, including classification of terms, touch displays, components, structure types, sensor types, input operations, measurement elements, and measurement performance, enabling the standardization of terminology and letter symbols for effective communication.
BS IEC 62908-1-2 also provides users with guidance on terms and definitions for interactive displays, including components, sensor types, input operations, input operations, actuator types, feedback operations and measurement performance, enabling the proper information transfer for development, application and usability of interactive displays.
The adoption of BS IEC 62908-1-2 enables users to standardize the terminology and letter symbols related to touch and interactive displays, facilitating their development, assessment, usability and authenticity across all value chains.
