5 Inch 800x480 Capacity Touch Screen

Description

This is a fantastic HDMI monitor with usb touch screen.Utilizing pre-existing Linux/Windows/Mac drivers, this 800 x 480 touchscreen will help you hit the ground running.
Resistive touch function give the user full control over any device. Supports windows / Ubuntu / Debian Linux/ Raspbian for Raspberry Pi, and also works on beagle bone and Mac.
Built-in EDID device information very easy to let the equipment correctly identified, USB touch can support functions of the right mouse button and drag and drop, and also multipoint touch, maximum 10 points.(only test in windows 10)
For use with a Raspberry Pi we suggest editing config.txt to set the HDMI to the native 800x480 in case it doesn't detect the resolution properly.
The easiest way to edit the config.txt is to put the Pi TF card into an every day computer and edit config.txt with any text editor and save.
