Free DVI cable
A DVI cable is standard included with the display to
provide the highest possible picture quality.
3:2 Pulldown
3:2 Pulldown totally eliminates the unwanted artefacts
that distort your picture viewing when watching movies.
With these artefacts gone, you will enjoy the movie the
way it is meant to be.
3D Combfilter
The 3D comb filter separates brightness and color signals
better in 3D domain to eliminate cross-color, crossluminance and dot-crawl distortion - all of which detract
from your viewing pleasure. The 3D digital comb filter
performs field-by-field comparisons of the television
image to accurately separate the color from the blackand-white information and remove both horizontally and
vertically hanging dots, as well as dot crawl. The result is
a razor sharp image.
Network controllability: RS232
Network controllability allows user to control and adjust
monitors remotely through RS232 protocol.
Picture In Picture (PIP)
Provides the ability to watch simultaneously two different
sources, either two video sources or a combination with
data/graphics
Multiple PC input formats
The product supports PC compatibility for VGA, SVGA,
XGA and WXGA. A universal public display solution
requires versatile PC input support.
Multiple video input formats
In common use video content is often supplied in various
formats in different resolutions and aspect ratios. Thus
the content needs to be reformatted for optimal display
on given screen resol ution. A high class scal er guarantee s
optimal reformatting of any video format up to SXGA.
Long expected panel lifetime
In public display applications 24/7 operation is often
required. Even after 60000 hours of operation the
brightness level of the display will be at least 50% of the
initial value.
Fanless operation
A system without fans is quiet and doesn't collect dust
inside the monitor. No moving parts inside the monitor
will thus improve the reliability of the product.
HD Ready display
Enjoy the exceptional picture quality of a High Definition
TV signal and be fully prepared for HD sources like
HDTV broadcast, Blu-ray DVD or HDVD. HD ready is a
protected label that offers picture quality beyond that of
progressive scan. It conforms to strict standards laid out
by EICTA to offer a HD screen that displays the benefits
of resolution and picture quality of a High Definition TV
si gnal . It has a uni vers al c onne cti on fo r bo th an alo g YPb Pr
and uncompressed Digital connection of DVI or HDMI,
supporting HDCP. It can display 720p, and 1080i signals
at 50 and 60Hz.
Motion comp. deinterlacing
Motion compensated deinterlacing employs a smart
deinterlacing algorithm that uses the images in a digital
memory to measure and estimate the motion speed and
direction of objects to creates new fields with corrected
motion positions so video content has perfectly smooth,
judder-free, and razor-sharp moving images.
