Mildex Capability

RMTS — Resistive Multi-Touch Systems

The rugged reliability of resistive touch combined with the multi-finger gesture capability operators expect from modern HMI software.

The Best of Both Worlds

Resistive Multi-Touch Systems (RMTS) use advanced controller algorithms and matrix-style sensor patterning to detect multiple simultaneous contact points on a resistive panel — historically a single-touch-only technology. The result is a panel that operates with gloves, water, mud, or any stylus AND supports modern two-finger gestures like pinch-zoom and rotate.

Where RMTS Shines

Complex HMI interfaces — mapping software in military vehicles, chart plotters on commercial vessels, control panels in industrial automation — need both the multi-touch interaction model AND the bulletproof input reliability of resistive. RMTS is purpose-built for this category.

Engineered Controller, Engineered Stack

RMTS performance depends as much on the controller firmware as on the sensor itself. Mildex designs both together, tuning sample rates, noise filters, and gesture recognition for the specific application — whether that's a 7" rugged tablet or a 24" vehicle console.
