Atmel maXTouch to be included in Samsung Galaxy Tablet

A few months ago we reported on the Atmel maXTouch sensors which we heading into the world of Android inside the Samsung Galaxy S line of phones. These sensors recognize an unlimited amount of touches and have a much better responsiveness while keeping power consumption low which all combine for some great multi-touch gaming on Android.

While only the more recent Android phones have Atmel maXTouch sensors in them such as the Incredible, Evo and of course the Samsung Galaxy S line, this will be the first tablet to have these included. Compared to what generally comes inside the older or middle-end Android phones, these sensors are incredibly fast with their touch responsiveness and as mentioned earlier support an unlimited amount of touches while keeping a high level of accuracy.

So just when you thought the Samsung Galaxy Tablet couldn't get any better, it does. Gaming on these should be amazing and I, for one, am looking forward to getting my hands on one right away. It's a safe bet that since these are coming in the 7" Galaxy tablet that the rumored/leaked 10" Samsung Galaxy Tablet due out early next year will have these sensors as well.
