Details of the technologies showcased at Digital Signage Expo:
PN-E Series. Sharp’s new PN-E line of large-format professional 60-, 700, and 80-inch class LED monitors are designed to work virtually wherever, whenever, and for whatever the need is. These durable LED monitors are ideal for use in most any demanding environment that requires around-the-clock operation seven days a week. Versions of all screen sizes are also available with integrated protective overlays offering enhanced durability in high-traffic applications. 24/7 certified, these commercial displays are backed by a three-year on-site limited warranty covering parts, labor and backlight.
AQUOS BOARD Interactive Display Systems. Sharp’s state of the art interactive displays bring big screen collaborative technology to the workplace, with the 60-, 70-, and 80-inch class AQUOS BOARD line. Sharp’s LED Backlit Touch-Panel Display is a complete interactive and digital solution for collaborative meetings, presentations, video conferencing, live data and interactive digital signage.
This digital meeting solution offers full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution, providing a higher quality visual display than a traditional projector, in addition to the touch-screen capabilities, creating a truly hands-on experience.
Video Wall Display. The brilliant PN-V602 Video Wall Monitor (pictured, top) combines the world’s slimmest bezel available* on a 60-inch class (diagonal) LCD monitor with high brightness for semi-outdoor environments. With 24/7 reliability and an almost seamless bezel (just 6.5 mm total between neighboring monitors), the PN-V602 sets a new standard for video wall displays.
A full-array LED backlight helps ensure uniform brightness.
Outstanding black levels are delivered via local dimming that allows specific groups of LEDs to be dimmed for greater control of brightness and darkness in different areas of the screen. Local dimming also helps deliver a remarkably better contrast ratio (up to 1,000,000:1) and brightness (up to 1,500 cd/m2) compared to conventional LCD monitors, while utilizing significantly less power.
Professional Outdoor Signage. Sharp’s 60-inch (diagonal) PN-A601 is compelling signage, best used for shopping malls, transportation hubs, college campuses, and sports and entertainment facilities where high-ambient light may be prevalent. This 60-inch (diagonal) LED-LCD monitor offers ultra-high brightness of 2,000 cd/m2 for superb visibility, even in brightly lit and high ambient light settings. The PN-A601 also provides exceptionally high image quality in full 1080p HD, with the energy savings of a full-array backlight in combination with local dimming.
