14 DAY TRIAL // BenQ today introduced the FP72V, a new 17-inch LCD monitor that is specifically designed for home entertainment, accommodating everyday activities such as music, video watching, learning, instant messaging and communicating with friends and relatives. The FP72V provides several features that address the needs of the whole family, including automatic brightness adjustment, detachable web camera for flexible placement, audio visual entertainment as well as wide viewing angles for sharing content.
The FP72V offers a "family friendly" feature set that was designed with four concepts in mind: Comfort, Share, Hands-On Fun and Novelty. The "Health Watch" concept refers to both a light sensor that automatically adjusts the brightness of the monitor based on the ambient lighting in the room and a timer that automatically lowers the brightness and contrast after a prescribed period of time. Both of these features help to ensure that users have a more comfortable viewing experience. There is also a durable built-in protective film that helps safeguard the LCD monitor screen from scrapes and scratches. The protective film also helps improve the image quality of the picture on the monitor.
Regarding the "share" concept, a wide viewing angle and height adjustment means that family members can easily turn the screen to show friends whatever is on the monitor. For "hands-on fun," items such as the detachable web camera enable the user to fit the monitor and its components into their living space in any manner that they choose. An adjustable height setting permits family members of all ages and sizes to access and view the monitor comfortably. The "novelty" concept pertains to the "robotic" shape of the LCD casing and silver metallic color that is aesthetically appealing.
