The most important factors in any display solution designed especially for digital signage applications are its size and its brightness, ensuring the fact that the images will be clearly visible even in bright sunshine.

For most users, their computer display is just a peripheral, an extension of their machine. However, for others (gamers, especially), the monitor is the gateway to a whole new world and this is the reason why it should reflect, to some extent, its user's personality. That's exactly the case with the monitor... |

We've seen plenty of Sci-Fi movies in which the characters gain access to a computer network, for example, by simply pressing their finger against a screen. Well, it would seem that all those movies might turn real soon enough, courtesy of a new type of LCD panel developed by the researchers from AU Optronics, w... |

We've already gotten accustomed to seeing the thickness of LCD TVs decrease with each new generation, and it seems that 2009 will bring even "skinnier" TVs to the market. And that's because the Taiwan-based Global Lighting Technologies company has developed a very innovative new technology that will help ma... |

Although this is not exactly the best possible period for consumer electronics, it seems that the sales of HDTV sets are still pretty strong, as people tend to shift their entertainment-related habits towards their own homes, preferring to play a video game or view a rented movie on DVD rather than spend a lot of mon... |

As you might remember, in one of our articles published last week, we informed you about LG's latest developments in the area of displays (especially that 19-inch OLED screen), which were unveiled at the International Meeting on Information Display (IMID) 2008, from Goyang City, Korea. However, it would seem tha... |

We've talked, time and time again, about the fact that OLED technology represents the future of displays, providing high-definition, high-contrast and crystal-clear images, while at the same time requiring a lot less power than their already "classic" LCD and PDP counterparts. Some of the most important names in... |

The popularity of digital photo frames has literally skyrocketed over the past couple of years and for this reason we shouldn't really be surprised by the huge number of such products that arrived on the market during this period of time. Moreover, pretty much each new model is touted by its manufacturers to be ... |

As some of you might remember from our CEDIA and CES coverages, Japanese company Hitachi announced back at the beginning of 2008 its UltraThin line of LCD HDTVs, which features a width of just 1.5 inches (3.87 cm). Nevertheless, it seems that Hitachi has decided to up the ante right on its home turf and showcased at ... |

Convergence seems to be one of the strategies chosen by some manufacturers of LCD HDTV sets in order to sell more units during this very difficult economic period, when the purchasing power of average customers has seriously decreased. And a very good example of this trend comes from ViewSonic, which has just introdu... |

It's not the first time SmartParts introduces a very wide digital photo frame, but it would seem that the company has taken things a bit too far this time. And that's because the newly announced SP3200WF model has a diagonal size of no less than 32 inches, which makes it larger than most PC monitors or even... |

Even if Sharp has made some rather interesting product announcements at this year's IFA show, it actually managed to hold some surprises for CEDIA as well.

As you've been able to see from our articles on the subject, JVC has come up with quite a lot of new and interesting products for this year's CEDIA show, including here two ultra-thin and very attractive LCD TV sets.

Back at CES 2008, Hitachi launched its UltraThin line of high-definition LCD TVs, which had been announced since the second half of 2007. However, since then, this series grew to include more models, so the Japanese company used CEDIA as the perfect platform to present the whole line of devices gathered in just one p... |

As you probably know, Toshiba has taken quite a beating from Sony earlier this year, when it's next-generation optical disc format, the HD DVD, had to bow down to Blu-ray and accept defeat. Since then, the Japanese company has bet pretty much everything on the "up-conversion" card, claiming that this technology ... |

Like most other manufacturers of display solutions, LG has also come up with a pretty interesting lineup for this year's IFA.

We've already seen some of Philips' "handywork" for the IFA show in Berlin, but the company has much more in store for us, especially in the area of display solutions, but not necessarily restricted to it. However, for the time being, we'll stick to the "realm" of HDTVs, since, beside the Aurea II and ... |

As some of you probably know, for quite a long time, the IFA show in Berlin has been all about the latest developments in the TV industry, but, over the years, it has expanded quite a lot, now housing just about every type of consumer electronic product one might think of.

Although not directly related to the IFA show taking place in Berlin as we speak, the Japanese company Sony has decided to launch today a huge array of products, LCDs in particular.

The title of world's thinnest LCD HDTV seems to have changed hands once again. After Hitachi held on to it for almost half a year, along came Sony and launched the incredibly thin KDL-40ZX1, whose panel is just 9 mm thick (while the device itself reaches just... 28.8 mm) but still capable of displaying high-qual... |

Despite the fact that diagonal size does matter a lot nowadays when purchasing a new HDTV set, the truth of the matter is that quite a lot of homes are simply too small for widescreen LCDs and PDPs. For this reason, the people from AOC have just announced a completely new line of high-definition LCD TV sets, designed... |

As we've been able to see quite clearly over the past few months, Sony is quite keen on "conquering" the European market, at least as far as high-definition TV sets are concerned.

Although LCDs are not typically associated with very wide viewing surfaces (this particular "area of expertise" belongs mainly to plasma displays), there are some models out there that really take the cake as far as their diagonal size is concerned.

Three-dimensional (3D) displays have always been somewhat of a showstopper, given the fact that we're dealing with a pretty innovative technology, still largely unavailable for the wide mass of consumers and delivering some spectacular results.

The International Consumer Electronics Show is the place where all the major names in the industry showcase what customers should expect for the upcoming period, or, in other words, the place where everyone who's anyone must be these days.

The LCD panels' market has gone through some serious changes over 2007, the most important one being an increasingly visible shift in the customers' choice in the LCD vs. plasma dilemma, with the liquid crystal displays emerging as the favorites.

The LCD business is an extremely lucrative one nowadays, since the worldwide demand for liquid crystal display panels has seriously soared over the course of 2007.

As probably most (if not all) computer users can confirm, LCD displays have a tendency of getting dirty really quick, if they're not constantly and thoroughly cleaned.

One of the most important reasons why LCD monitors are generally quite expensive is that they require a very special type of glass in order to provide very good-quality images, namely one with very low levels of sodium, a substance that normally blocks light and prevents making extra-thin glass.
