Vivid Display
Groundbreaking OI Touchscreens
are the brightest on the market!
High-Definition Quality TFT LCD displays
Brightest on the market
With an LED backlight shining up to 800 cd/m², OI Touchscreens create a very powerful
visual presentation. Immediately after the touchscreen is turned on, the screen lights up and
lasts much longer than a CCFL (Cold Cathode Florescent Lamp) with a lifespan of 100,000
hours or greater. A 48-level adjustment also provides flexibility, allowing you to determine
the brightness.
Our high-performance OI Touchscreens are so vivid
thanks to cutting-edge color conversion technology,
SVGA resolution
The High Definition Quality TFT LCD Screens with SVGA resolution (8.4”, 10.4” and 12.1”
OI Touchscreens) provide sharp images and superior visibility. The high resolution also
gives you more space to create additional images and parts for your project, while enjoying
exceptional clarity.
65,536 Colors
With so many colors, screen views are realistic and crisp, providing true-to-life images and
making it easy to view precise readings of data and images. Distinctly different from 8-bit,
256 color screens, the High-Performance Series offers an intense depth-of-color perfect for
graphical displays.

Mounting Flexibility
All High-Performance Series can be mounted
with the screen orientation set to portrait
or landscape mode depending on space
requirements. This allows you the flexibility
of mounting the touchscreen according
to your specific application needs. Plus OI
Touchscreens are designed with a slim body
style, providing a big advantage in situations
where panel space is at a premium.
High-speed CPU
The fastest in its class, a 400MHz RISC
processor means that these touchscreens
have quick operation and response times,
as well as exceptional performance. Not to
mention, start-up is 3 seconds from power
on, so you can start working without delay.
Low Energy Consumption
Designed with an energy-saving design and LED
backlight, these touchscreens use 50% less energy
compared with conventional models. While all OI
Touchscreens in the High-Performance Series consume
a maximum of 27 watts of power (depending on model
size), if a USB host and expansion I/O are not used,
less wattage is used. For instance, the 8.4” and 10.4”
consume a maximum of 15 watts when not using these
devices. Similarly, having full control of how and when
the LED backlight dims or goes to sleep mode allows
you to save more energy.
Long LED Life
With a best-in-class LED backlight life of
up to 100,000 hours, you also get the added
value of your screen lasting twice as long
as the competition.
Approvals
We are dedicated to ensuring the safety of life and
property at sea. To that end, IDEC OI Touchscreens are
trusted and approved by leading maritime classification
agencies, such as the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS
Type Approval), Lloyd’s Register and NK. This means
our touchscreens meet technical and safety needs that
allow them to be used in marine, offshore structures and
shore-based installations. All high-performance models
are also CE-marked and c-UL-us listed.
