 NanoShapes

One of the big attractions in display at DSE 2012 was NanoLumen’s line of NanoShapes. This line of displays includes a square, a circle and triangle.

For example, a large circular video display served as the centerpiece of their stand. NanoShapes are designed using patented NanoSlim technology.

NanoLumens says it is the only company in the world able to reliably manufacture ultra-thin and lightweight, easy-to-install and maintain, seamless flexible digital displays in virtually any shape or size to meet each customer’s unique requirements.

The company’s patented display technology allows customers to select from 4mm up to 10mm pixel pitches (depending on the model).

NanoLumens displays feature a seamless, edge-to-edge picture quality (up to a brightness of 5000 nits) that can be viewed from any angle or any distance without color shift or picture drop-off.

The Future, According to Corning

  • PDF

Corning

Gorilla Glass maker Corning takes a look at the crystal sphere and tries to predict the future, presenting a vision of a future where virtually everything has some form of touch-based display.

Titled A Day Made of Glass 2, the video follows a family in a Corning-dominated future utopia where transparent touchscreens are everywhere-- taking over not only mobile device buttons, but also home windows, automobile dashboards and interactive whiteboards.

Corning presented an 80" Gorilla Glass display at CES 2012.

Possibly even more interesting is a second video on Corning's predictions, explaining what the company is actually working on to bring such a vision to reality.

Elo TouchSystems

New for ISE 2012 are some additional touch technologies for some of is Elo TouchSystems’ most popular touchmonitor models.

The zero-bezel design removes the frame found around standard monitors to create a seamless surface designed to showcase the HD wide-screen experience.

Elo says that zero-bezel projected capacitive (PCAP) touch technology gives a unique design resistant to water, impacts, scratches and other contaminants on the screen. With the Windows 7 OS and compatible driver, multi-touch functionality is available. (and with Windows 8 on the way, this year….only better.)

 Sharp LCD Perimeter Advertising System

Sharp’s indoor perimeter advertising system, consisting of the PN-V series of thin-bezel monitors, will be on show at the Sharp stand at ISE.

The Sharp perimeter system can be quickly assembled and is also protected by safety glass, making it suitable for all indoor events. The displays can also be adapted locally to the lighting conditions of the hall, and their resolution ensures pan shots are displayed without any disruptive moiré effect.

The pre-mounted system for hall events has a been successfully used at various sports events in 2011, including the finals of the European Handball Federation (EHF) Champions League in Cologne.

i1Display Pro Calibration

  • PDF

i1Display Pro

A compact, modern design disguises the fact that the i1Display Pro Calibration incorporates three functions (ambient light measurement, monitor profiling, and projector profiling) into a very sleek, compact and fully integrated device with no parts to misplace.

Its intuitive all-in-one design seems very easy to use, yet the maker says this calibration device measures “5X faster than previous devices.”

i1Display incorporates new advanced filter and optical systems, fast measurement speed, and color accuracy for all modern display technologies including LED and wide gamut LCDs. It’s also spectrally calibrated, which makes it field upgradeable to support future display technologies.

The Future of Display May Be Crustacean

  • PDF

chitin

Researchers in Japan’s Kyoto University can turn a crab shell into a "transparent nanocomposite sheet" that could be the future for flat panel display, solar cell and flexible screen manufacturing.

The scientists treat the crab shell with a chemical mixture that removes all minerals, proteins, lipids, fats and pigments from the shell—leaving only translucent chitin. Don’t try to say the word too fast, but chitin is that see-through shell that you might see on an beach after it has been pounded by waves, ground against rocks and bleached in the sun.)

BenQ’s SmartEco Projector Lamp Tech

  • PDF

SmartEco

BenQ (the first DLP projector brand to incorporate Philips' ImageCare™ technology into its projector lamp system) develops its own proprietary SmartEco lamp technology which combines energy efficiency for longer lamp life with optimized image contrast.

SmartEco technology saves energy and increases lamp life by dynamically adjusting the lamp power to different brightness settings based on the projected content.

SmartEco lets the projector compensate for this process with an internal software solution that maintains the ideal color spectrum and also provides an improved contrast ratio.

  • PDF

 Lightbox

The “Lightbox” is an indoor Digital Signage Display, available in various sizes and dimensions.

Pixled wanted to widen the application base for selected products so designed Lightbox for places and spaces needing high brightness displays-- including retail environments, advertising applications and for venues of all types (particularly stadia).

Depending on the size of the display - and quality expectations - the Lightbox unit can be equipped with a wide choice of LED tiles in different resolutions, with 4 mm, 6 mm, 8 mm and 10 mm pitches currently available. The “Lightbox” is available with either single or double sided LED displays

In addition to the dynamic standard range, custom elements can be designed and produced as to suit by Pixled's specialist team.
