David Tyas, Managing Director of Ikon AVS comments: "The Touch Podule is something that I have been very keen on developing as an extension of the Podule product range.
It was very important for us to develop a cost effective, but powerful controller that could seamlessly integrate into both simple and complex applications.
In addition to this, the Touch Podule now allows installers to specify a comprehensive graphical control interface into applications where before now, budget constraints would have prohibited such use".
