Overview

Sony Interactive Overlays are touch layers fitting over compatible Professional Displays from 43 to 100 inches, adding 10-point touch. Choose IR for sizes up to 100 inches, or PCAP for sizes up to 75 inches. The anti-glare glass stays readable in bright rooms, and the overlay connects by USB with no driver needed. Suited to Qatari schools and boardrooms. The display is sold separately; request a quote for both.

What a touch overlay adds to a Sony Professional Display

A Sony Interactive Overlay is a separate touch layer that sits on the front of a compatible Sony Professional Display. It turns the screen into a touch surface without replacing the display itself, so an organisation that already owns a suitable BRAVIA Professional Display can add interaction without buying a new panel. The overlay connects to a computer over USB as a standard HID device, so no driver installation is needed. The display is powered separately, and the overlay draws less than 2.5 W on IR models and less than 2 W on PCAP models.

IR or PCAP: choosing the right technology for your screen

The range comes in two technologies. The IR version covers 43, 49, 55, 65, 75, 85 and 100-inch sizes, with 10 touch points, a response time under 8 ms and a maximum touch accuracy of 1 mm. The PCAP version covers 43 to 75 inches, also with 10 touch points, but its response time is under 16 ms and its maximum accuracy is 3 mm. Choose IR when you need the largest sizes or finer accuracy, such as an 85-inch screen used for detailed annotation. PCAP suits sizes up to 75 inches where 3 mm accuracy is enough for menus and browsing.

Matching the overlay to your screen size and bezel

  • IR bezels: 25 mm on 43 to 55-inch models, 28 mm on 65 and 75-inch, and 30 mm on 85 and 100-inch.
  • PCAP bezels: 33 mm on 43-inch, 30 mm on 49 and 55-inch, 36 mm on 65-inch, and 51 mm on 75-inch.
  • Glass thickness: 3 mm to 5 mm on IR, and 4 mm to 5 mm on PCAP, rising with size.

Check the overlay footprint before ordering. An IR overlay for an 85-inch display measures about 1968 x 1160 x 30 mm and weighs roughly 50 kg, while the 100-inch IR overlay weighs about 75 kg on its own. Those weights matter for wall-mounted installations, so plan the mounting and lifting arrangements in advance.

Where these overlays fit in Qatar

A primary school in Al Wakrah that already runs Sony Professional Displays in its classrooms could add a 65-inch PCAP overlay to one display for a teacher-led lesson, keeping the existing panel and adding touch without replacing it.

A boardroom in West Bay with an 85-inch display can use the IR model for collaborative sessions, where ten touch points let several people work on a wide screen at once. A hotel lobby in Msheireb or a visitor centre near the Industrial Area could use an overlay on a 75-inch display for wayfinding, where the anti-glare glass helps the screen stay readable under bright daylight.

What to plan before you order

Confirm the display model and size first, because the overlay must match the screen, and the overlay is sold separately from the display. Check the operating range: IR overlays are rated from -20°C to 70°C and PCAP overlays from -20°C to 60°C, with 10% to 90% relative humidity, non-condensing. For lobbies, rooms with large windows, or spaces that are not fully air-conditioned, ask the SmartRooms Qatar team to review the environment before ordering. The manufacturer warranty is 3 years with advanced exchange. SmartRooms Qatar offers free site surveys, which are worth booking before a heavy 85 or 100-inch overlay is installed, to confirm wall or stand loading.

Request a quote from SmartRooms Qatar for the overlay and a compatible display, and the team will confirm the right technology and size for your room.

Questions about Interactive Overlays

Which Sony displays does this overlay fit?
The overlay is designed for current Sony Professional Display models in sizes from 43 to 100 inches, and the source data confirms compatibility with those models. Choose the IR version for any size up to 100 inches, or the PCAP version for sizes up to 75 inches. Because the overlay is sold separately from the display, confirm your exact display model with the SmartRooms Qatar team before you order.
What is the difference between the IR and PCAP overlays?
IR models cover 43, 49, 55, 65, 75, 85 and 100 inches, with a response time under 8 ms and a maximum touch accuracy of 1 mm. PCAP models cover 43 to 75 inches, with a response time under 16 ms and a maximum accuracy of 3 mm. Both offer 10 touch points. A boardroom with an 85-inch screen needs IR, because PCAP stops at 75 inches.
Does the overlay need a driver or software to work?
No driver is required. The overlay connects to a computer over USB and is recognised as a USB HID device, so it is ready to use once connected. A ministry office in Doha that moves its display between meeting rooms can reconnect the overlay to any computer with a free USB port, without a driver installation step.
How much electricity does the overlay use?
The IR overlay draws less than 2.5 W and the PCAP overlay less than 2 W, supplied through its USB connection. The display itself is powered separately, so its own consumption is not included in these figures. For a school running several classrooms across a long day, check the display's rating alongside the overlay figure when planning total load.
Will the screen stay readable in bright daylight?
The overlay has a tough anti-glare surface, designed to keep the screen visible in sunny environments. That suits a hotel lobby in Msheireb, a retail space in Lusail, or a visitor centre with large windows facing the street. Positioning still matters, so avoid placing the display opposite a window where direct sun falls on the glass through the day.
Can the overlay handle Qatar summer temperatures?
The IR overlay is rated for operating temperatures from -20°C to 70°C, and the PCAP overlay from -20°C to 60°C, with 10% to 90% relative humidity, non-condensing. Summer temperatures in Qatar can exceed 45°C, so for a room that is not air-conditioned or a spot in direct sun, ask the SmartRooms Qatar team to review the full environment before ordering.
How heavy is an 85-inch overlay, and what should I plan for?
The IR overlay for an 85-inch display measures about 1968 x 1160 x 30 mm and weighs about 50 kg, and its carton weighs about 58 kg. Plan lifting equipment and a secure mounting point before delivery. A free site survey from SmartRooms Qatar helps confirm the wall or stand can carry the load, which is useful for a boardroom in West Bay.
Can the overlay go on a display that is already wall-mounted?
Possibly, but the mount must be checked. The IR overlay is about 30 to 40 mm deep and the PCAP overlay about 60 to 65 mm, so the added depth and weight can affect how a display sits on an existing bracket. Send the display model and mount details to SmartRooms Qatar and ask for a site survey before you order.
What warranty comes with the overlay?
The manufacturer warranty is 3 years with advanced exchange, as stated in the product data. SmartRooms Qatar supplies the overlay under that manufacturer warranty. Keep the purchase order and invoice with your asset records, particularly for schools and government bodies that track equipment across several sites.
Can a government entity or school order these through an LPO?
Yes. SmartRooms Qatar accepts purchase orders (LPOs) and government tenders, including Monaqasat, and payment by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. A school ordering overlays for several 65-inch displays can submit one LPO listing the models and quantities. Quotations are usually issued within one working day, and the lead time is confirmed with the quote.
How many people can use the overlay at the same time?
Both versions support 10 touch points. On an 85-inch IR overlay, that means up to ten fingers can interact with the screen at once, which suits group activities in a Doha international school or a brainstorming session in a corporate meeting room. Touch accuracy is 1 mm on IR and 3 mm on PCAP, so smaller targets are easier to hit on the IR model.
