i.mx53 Quick Start Board Multitouch support

[TugrulGuclu]

Hi everyone

I would like to know if i.mx53 touch display interfaces support multitouch. Afaik resistive touch interface does not support multitouch by default therefore I have single choice which is MCIMX-LVDS1. Is that correct ?

Below is the summary of i.mx53 and its modules

Part Number Description MSRP (USD)
MCIMX53-START-R i.MX53 Quick Start development board $149
MCIMXHDMICARD 24-bit HDMI output port $49
MCIMX28LCD 4.3” 800 x 480 WVGA with 4-wire touch screen $199
MCIMX-LVDS1 10.1” 1024 x 768 XGA display with capacitive multi-touch $499

On the other hand, is there  a cheaper solution , has anyone experienced ?

To enable the capacitive touch screen on kernel (you will need to do it to use multitouch), you can check the given solution on discussion: http://imxcommunity.org/forum/topics/lvds-touchscreen-on-inflexionui-demo?xg_source=activity

After that, I think you will need to find a driver for multitouch. I have never done it before.
