 "Airbar" has the accuracy that can be used comfortably with a little touch operation, and for those who need to respond to touch operation on a notebook PC, it may be a relief item.It can be used for private use, such as scrolling browser and scaling images, but touch operation should be used for business use.

Write a memo on Airbar presentation that can be used in various ways for business use, and operate it while wearing gloves

 Here are some examples of the use of "Airbar".There are six points that will be useful for business use when you actually use it.In particular, the fact that it can be operated while showing the screen to others, or can be operated even with gloves, etc. can be said to be a good use of "Airbar".

人に見せながらPC操作するならタッチ操作が超快適!

 When using a notebook PC that can open the 180 -degree display, you may want to turn the screen in reverse the screen by turning the screen to the opponent, but the operation is quite difficult because it has a reverse input from the screen.increase.Due to operability issues, it is effective to show the other party with the screen 180 degrees open, but some people may not use it.

 If it is "Airbar", the place where the screen is displayed will respond even if the screen is displayed, so it will be quite useful for operating while showing the screen to the other party.

画面を反転表示させて相手に見せながら使う場合、タッチパッドでは操作が難解になりますが、「AirBar」なら見たまま操作可能で簡単。反転表示状態でタッチパッドで線を書くのはかなり難しかったりしますが、タッチ操作であれば簡単。

 Even if the screen is reversed, the input of "Airbar" does not go wrong, so it is very convenient to use it for meetings or presentations.If you have a notebook PC that can open the 180 -degree display, the introduction of "Airbar" is recommended because the range of use will be greatly expanded.

ボタン的な操作やスクロールなどは直接タッチが速い、効率アップ

 The direct touch and the mouse cursor operation are good, but it is quicker to touch the scroll bar and the button operation directly.

 In particular, if you are a notebook PC that uses a touch pad as the main, there will be more scenes that can work more comfortably if you can use the touch operation together.

ブラウザのスクロールなどはタッチ操作だと狙ったところで止めたりも簡単。進む/戻るといった類のボタン操作も直接タッチしてしまった方が楽なことが多いです。

 For example, if it is a browser, it is easy to stop scrolling or operate quickly, and it is easier to click the icon and to touch the touch operation.When operating while showing the screen to a person, it can be operated as you aimed at the touch operation.

 "Airbar" is a very good item to make up for the part that I think is a bit difficult to operate the touchpad.

資料画像の拡大縮小など確認はタッチ操作が格段に便利!

 In a sense, "touch operation is convenient" and the most easy to understand is the display switching.The operation is intuitive, and it is a function that is often used to check the details.

 Image materials with data are often small, and I think that there are many cases where you want to enlarge and check, but if you use touch operation, you can do it instantly, so work efficiency will increase.

 Also, when dealing with materials that are often expanded or reduced, such as the map, the burden will be reduced if the touch operation can be done, so if you often think that it can be easily expanded and reduced like a smartphone, "Airbar" "Airbar.You should benefit if you introduce ".

ちょっとした指示の書入れや線を入れるのはタッチが便利

 It is convenient to be able to do touch operation when you want to insert the corrected part or write a note at work.Especially when changing and adjusting images, etc., it can be comfortable and easy to understand by writing the line by touching.

pdfファイルなどにメモを書き入れる際も、タッチで行えると楽な場面も多いです。画像関連の指定は丸で囲ったりすることが多いかと思いますが、こうした作業はタッチ操作が楽です。

 Of course, a touchpad is possible, but it is more efficient to touch a specific part with a line or put a line in an easy -to -understand manner, and it is more efficient and faster.If you have a large number of characters to write in, it is more efficient to use a keyboard, so it is recommended to use it in the right place.

ノングレア液晶でもタッチ操作可能にできるAirBar

 Basically, the notebook PC that supports touch operation is equipped with a glossy type (glare) liquid crystal display.The glossy liquid crystal is beautiful because the brightness and saturation look high, but it can be avoided in business applications because the reflection is tight.

 There is almost no model that supports touch operation with a non -glare type liquid crystal display that suppresses gloss, and there are not many good products, but if it is "Airbar", you can create an environment that supports touch operation with a non -glare LCD.

AirBarならノングレアの液晶ディスプレイをタッチ対応にできます。ノングレア液晶だから反応が悪いといったようなこともありません。

 For those who are looking for a non -glare LCD and touch -operated environment, "Airbar" should be a fairly powerful upgrade item.One of the attractions of "Airbar" is that it can be used for applications that can be reached in these itchy places.

手袋をしていても使えるタッチ操作ができるAirBar

 Since "Airbar" is neither a static type nor a pressure -sensitive type, it is possible to operate the touch even if you wear gloves.Depending on the business, you may have to wear gloves, but in such an environment, "Airbar" can be touched.

 In addition, since it works normally even if you touch it with a slightly wet hand, it is an item that may be a touch sensor that does not choose the usage environment.If you make good use of it, you may be able to increase the work efficiency of the environment where touch operations could not be introduced so far.I feel a little potential to be able to use it while wearing gloves.

"Airbar", which is more comfortable to work with a retrofit touch sensor

 This time, I thought about how to use "Airbar" assuming a business use, but it is an item that is active in more situations than expected, and has a great introduction effect depending on the usage environment.The advantage of this product is that it is easy to carry because it is easy to attach and remove, so it is easy to carry.

 It is especially recommended for those who often use while showing the screen of the PC to others, those who use a lot of expanding and reduced, and those who want to operate while wearing gloves.If you want to do your job a little more comfortably, why not consider the introduction?
