As prices of low-end 14-inch capacitive touchscreen display panels move lower, its expected that touchscreen-enabled notebook PCs will occupy 24.6 percent of global notebook shipments by 2016.
IHS (NYSE: IHS) iSuppli said shipments of touchscreen notebooks will rip over 400 percent to 24 million units this year, moving to 78 million by 2016.
Prices on the 14-inch capacitive touchscreen display panels will fall from around $65 last year down to $35 per unit in 2013.
Speaking at the Society for Information Display (SID) IHS/SID 2013 Business Conference, Intel (Nasdaq: INTC) VP of Global Ecosystem Development Zane Ball commented, "Touch displays are reinventing the PC market and there is a substantial growth opportunity in this area...At Intel, we have adopted a strategy that touch should be everywhere. We believe that as touch moves into the PC space, it will be a transformative product and will unlock new demand."
Ball noted that mobile PC designs utilizing its Haswell chipset were already underway.
Intel said it had to do a little convincing with its supply chain that PC demand was still there and is confident that consumers will clamor for touch-technology in any number of mobile form factors.
Shares of Intel are up 1.4 percent Wednesday.
