A touch panel assembly with redundancy and electromagnetic interference reduction features comprising: a housing; an electronic display (16/112) located within said housing and adapted to display images; a resistive touch panel (14/114) located within said housing and comprising a pair of adjoining, seamless grid sections and: a pair of upper horizontal receivers (210, 212) positioned adjacent to an upper edge of the resistive touch panel (14/114) and configured to receive electrical signals generated therefrom; a pair of lower horizontal receivers (218, 220) positioned adjacent to a lower edge of the resistive touch panel (14/114) and configured to receive electrical signals generated therefrom; and a pair of vertical receivers (214, 222) positioned adjacent to right and left edges of the resistive touch panel (14/114) and configured to receive electrical signals generated therefrom; a gasket that provides a substantially air tight seal between said electronic display (16/112) and said resistive touch panel (14/114); a first and second input/output device in communication with said electronic display (16/112) for independently operating each of said seamless grid sections; a channel comprising EMI shielding, wherein said channel extends from within said housing, through an edge thereof, to an area outside of said housing, wherein said first and second input/output devices are housed within said channel, said pair of input/output devices extending through said channel; and a controller in communication with the electronic display (16/112) and the resistive touch panel (14/114), wherein said controller is configured to shift the image displayed such that the displayed image corresponds entirely to one side of said pair of adjoining, seamless grid sections if one of said seamless grid sections is rendered inoperable, wherein the controller is further configured to automatically change the input/output device utilized if one of said input/output devices is rendered inoperable; wherein said electronic display (16/112) is a liquid crystal display; wherein said resistive touch panel (14/114) is located above and in parallel with said electronic display (16/112); wherein each line of the touch panel grid comprises an comprise an electronic circuit; and wherein each of the electronic circuits comprises a first zener diode in parallel with a number of capacitors, where an inductor is provided between each adjoining pair of said number of capacitors, wherein a last one of said number of capacitors is followed by and in parallel with a second zener diode. a housing;
