Neonode started as a mobile phone company in Sweden and now focuses on developing, licensing, and selling their patented optical touch technology called zForce. ZForce uses an invisible grid of infrared light beams to detect touches on any surface like a finger or stylus. It provides advantages over other touch technologies by working with any screen shape and material and detecting touches from any object. The technology senses touch location, size, pressure, and speed using infrared emitters, detectors, and control software to calculate touch positions.

1. Welcome To The Future
WELCOME TO NEONODE

2. Neonode started out as a company producing mobile phones, founded in Sweden by Magnus
Goertz and Thomas Eriksson. Currently Neonode Inc. focuses solely on the development, licensing
and selling of the company's patented optical touch technology. The technology uses a web of light
beams and was named zForce (zero force)

3. TOUCH SCREEN
• A Touch screen is an electronic visual
display that can detect the presence and
location of a touch within the display area.
• The term generally refers to touching the
display of the device with a finger or hand
Touchscreens can also sense other passive
objects, such as a stylus.

4. HISTORY OF TOUCH SCREENS
(A LOOK BACK)

18. Z-FORCE
zForce is developed to work with a wide range of touch enabled devices such as smart
phones, tablets, toys, home appliances, e-Readers, printer products and automotive
applications. zForce is developed to provide outstanding performance.
• This is Achieved Through Neonode’s MultiSensing Technology
An Award-winning optical touch technology

19. • Neonode’s MultiSensing technology provides a far more augmented and profound user
experience than the traditional touch solutions today.
• Based on optical infrared light, This technology also performs with the speed of light.
• It senses any object and identifies its size, the pressure, depth, speed and even the
proximity to any surface
• Used for intense user experiences for mobile phones, tablets, toys, office appliances and
the automotive industries.

20. THIS IS HOW IT WORKS……….
• zForce® is Neonode’s innovative optical 2D touch technology. It gives a number of major
advantages compared with traditional touch technologies, Like capacitive or resistive.
• With zForce, any type of screen or display can be used. In fact, zForce works with any
surface – flat, round or any other shape.
• Another advantage is that any type of object can be used – a finger or a stylus, a car key,
fingernails, gloves and ordinary pens.

21. THE BASICS
• zForce consists of a set of infrared emitters and detectors, an optical light guide, control
electronics and control software
• The emitters pulse infrared light just above the touch surface
• A change in detected light indicates an object’s touch
• By combining the measured value from more than one detector, the touch position
and object size are calculated
• The output from zForce can be used to identify actions such as gestures and
sweeps.

22. WHAT YOU DON’T SEE…..
• The invisible grid of LED’s That Surround the screen.

23. WHAT YOU GET……
• With zForce enabled touch screens you enjoy complete freedom of design as
there is no requirement for glass or plastic film overlays on top of the display
window.
• The result is a 100% optical transparency with improved image quality and
reduced glare

24. KEY FEATURES…..
• zForce has a touch resolution of 250 DPI which enables precision writing with thin objects
such as a pen or a stylus
• zForce is developed for operating temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C which
enables usage in very harsh environments
• The control software includes, among other functions, advanced algorithms which
calibrate the system by adjusting the power to the emitters
• Compensations are made for dust and other small particles on the surface as well as for
variation in component quality and ambient light conditions
• Calibration is carried out continuously during normal operation and no extra calibration is
necessary

25. CONCLUSION
• Neonode’s optical infrared touch technology—zForce®—can be integrated into consumer
and industrial electronics to enable touch controls.
• The Company seeks to compete with low-cost resistive touch options while outperforming
today’s advanced capacitive touch solutions.
• To do so, Neonode strives to effectively combine the advantages of each technology into
one streamlined solution.
• Keeping costs low for customers is imperative for Neonode, as is enabling the
development of devices that have 100% optical transparency for a clear viewing
experience without reflection.
• The Company’s proprietary architecture innately offers these benefits by reducing the
amount of glass required in the manufacture of touch screens
