“Zytronic has done an excellent job integrating their capabilities with OMRON’s STP technology, resulting in a partnership that adds value to customers,” Omron Business Development Manager Patrick Lahey said.
“Combining their award-winning capacitive touch technology with our STP enabled them to create an enhanced, visually appealing transparent button deck that hasn’t been seen before. I am excited to see the impact this solution will have on the marketplace.”

The gaming button deck utilizes Zytronic’s ZXY500 PCAP technology in order to manufacture custom firmware which provides flexibility and customization options for casino game manufacturers. The technology is then combined with Omron’s See Through Panel (STP) configuration to create “unique” innovations and holographic-style effects.
“We’re thrilled to collaborate on this product alongside OMRON,” Zytronic CTO Dr. Andrew Morrison said.
“This exciting new technology is a fresh look to traditional gaming and is an example of our commitment to creativity and innovation. We look forward to continuing to innovate alongside the team at OMRON and provide cutting-edge experiences that excite customers and players.”
