Abstract

An interactive display system including a first assembly, a touch screen assembly and a display assembly is provided. The first assembly includes a glass sheet having a first surface and a second surface. The glass sheet is etched at one or more of the first surface and the second surface. The first assembly further includes a first coating, a second coating, a third coating, a fourth coating, and a fifth coating. The first coating, the second coating and the third coating are applied at the first surface of the glass sheet. The fourth coating and the fifth coating are applied at the second surface of the glass sheet. The touch screen assembly includes a touch screen and is optically bonded to the glass sheet at the second surface of the glass sheet. The display assembly is optically bonded to the touch screen assembly.

Dependent claims

An interactive display system comprising:

a first assembly including:
a glass sheet having a first surface and a second surface, wherein the glass sheet is etched at at least one of the first surface and the second surface to provide anti-glare properties to the glass sheet;
a first coating;
a second coating;
a third coating;
a fourth coating;
and
a fifth coating;
wherein each of the first coating, the second coating and the third coating is applied at the first surface of the glass sheet, and each of the fourth coating and the fifth coating is applied at the second surface of the glass sheet, the fourth coating having a predetermined shape and applied along a perimeter of the glass sheet;
a touch screen assembly having a first surface and a second surface;
wherein the first surface of the touch screen assembly is optically bonded to the second surface of the glass sheet;
and
a display assembly having a first surface and a second surface;
wherein the first surface of the display assembly is optically bonded to the second surface of the touch screen assembly.
