GDS Files Patent For Its Groundbreaking Optically Enhanced Large TFT Display
Global Display Solutions (GDS), market leader in the design and manufacture
of industrial displays, has filed a patent application for its
'first-to-market' Optically Enhanced Large TFT Display. This innovative
display is readable in full sunlight, has extremely high resolution and is
designed to operate 24 hours a day. The display is ideal for use in outdoor
applications such as railway stations, airports, bus stations and other
passenger information display functions.
The European patent request was registered on May 11th 2005 and is entitled
'improved display device for indoor and outdoor applications'. The patent
application is based on certain aspects of the display's design, such as the
panel and monitor cooling system, the mechanical chassis system, the optical
improvement system and other related concepts.
GDS's innovative new display uses optimal contrast values, which can
overcome all previous temperature and reliability limitations experienced by
outdoor displays. GDS has used its extensive experience in developing
monitors for ATM machines to design this unique display. The display
utilizes similar technology to the ATM monitors, but on a much larger scale.
The casing of the display has been made to IP65 standard, which guarantees
total protection from dust and low pressure water from all directions. The
quality of the graphics on the display is extremely high, operating at
1366x768 resolutions.
Marco Cohen, Sales and Marketing Manager at GDS, comments: "Here at GDS we
have a reputation for being at the cutting edge of new technology and it is
important to us to go that extra mile in providing the very best display
possible for certain applications. GDS is the world leader in outdoor
displays and this is an area that we pride ourselves on. The fact that we
have applied for a patent to cover this new display demonstrates how unique
the technology is."
