Hi All
I am anticipating a project consisting of a vehicle PC install,whether that be a laptop or of a mini PC design, either of which will require the option of being able to be controlled through the use of a touchscreen.
Ther are other forums which deal with this topic but a lot of those discussions, whilst similar in nature, center on street vehicles and not those venturing off the beaten track a little.
If this is appropriate, would fellow forumites please post some details of types and possible sources of the touchscreens currently being used in the off-road environment?
Thanks in advance ...

Hi Noel,
This is the screen that I have been using since March this year. So far I haven't done any off road driving with it yet, but it doesn't bounce around at all in normal driving situations. In a serious off road situation, I may consider closing it.
So far I'm very happy with it's performance, but there are two issues. I doesn't remember it's parked position, which is a little annoying but not too important. Also the drivers that came with it didn't work, but I managed to find better ones online for the VM170 Monitor. This is the same monitor, that is sold and is very popular in the US.
