Multi-Touch Overlay Kit (STP-IR100 Series)

What this overlay does for a BRAVIA 4K display

The Sony STP-IR100 Series is an infrared touch overlay for BRAVIA 4K Professional Displays. It sits over a compatible display and turns the screen into a touch surface, so presenters, students and visitors can work directly on the picture instead of using a mouse or remote. The overlay is sold on its own, and the display it fits is ordered separately. Sony has discontinued this series, so this page is written for organisations that already own the overlay, buyers comparing options and anyone looking for a replacement.

Four sizes, each matched to one panel

The series has four model codes: STP-55IR100 for 55-inch, STP-65IR100 for 65-inch, STP-75IR100 for 75-inch and STP-85IR100 for 85-inch BRAVIA Professional Displays. Each kit is built for one panel size. The 55-inch overlay measures 1252.8 × 723.4 × 31 mm and weighs 9.1 kg, while the 85-inch version measures 1927.2 × 1108.2 × 28.5 mm and weighs 24.6 kg. Packed weights run from 14.9 kg to 34.3 kg, so plan for lifting equipment and a two-person team on the larger cartons.

Touch performance and the figures to compare

• Input: fingers, pens and other opaque objects, with a minimum object size of 6 mm for single touch and 8 mm for multi-touch.
• Touch points: up to 10, depending on application support.
• Accuracy: ±2 mm across more than 90% of the touch area.
• Speed: response time under 15 ms with a 125 Hz frame rate.
• Glass: 2.8 mm on the 55 and 65-inch kits, 3.2 mm on 75-inch, 4 mm on 85-inch, with light transmission under 85%.
• Bezel: 19 mm on 55 and 65-inch, 20.5 mm on 75-inch, 25.1 mm on 85-inch.

The glass is fingerprint resistant, which keeps smears and marks down on a screen that many people touch each day.

Connectivity, software and operating conditions

The overlay connects over USB 2.0 and draws power from that connection at DC 5V ±5%, averaging under 300 mA. Supported systems listed in the data are Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and 10, Mac OS X 10.6 or later, Android with kernel 4.0 or later, Linux with kernel 3.5 or later, and Chrome, so check your PC or media player before ordering. The rated operating range is 0 to 40°C at 20 to 80% humidity. Qatar summer temperatures can exceed 45°C, so the display and overlay belong in an air-conditioned room, not a hot outdoor or window-facing position. Listed certifications are FCC, CB, RCM, EAC, GB, ICES and RoHS.

Where it fits in Qatar and what to plan

• A boardroom in West Bay: a 75-inch display with this overlay lets a management team mark up shared documents during calls with colleagues abroad.
• A classroom in Al Rayyan: a 65-inch kit suits a room where students take turns at the screen.
• A hotel lobby in The Pearl: an 85-inch touch screen can present directions and dining information to guests.

Confirm the display model first, then check the wall or stand can carry the panel and overlay together. SmartRooms Qatar offers a free site survey to check wall loading, cable routing and the room environment. Schools and government offices can raise a purchase order (LPO) for several units, and lead times are confirmed with each quotation. We deliver to all eight municipalities of Qatar and can arrange professional installation.

Because this series is discontinued, send your display model and room details and request a quote for a current compatible replacement from SmartRooms Qatar.
