Japan Display has presented three prototype displays, titled “Innovation Vehicles”, which combining the latest mobile display technologies from Sony, Toshiba, and Hitachi.
“Japan Display was established in April, by the three companies. During the six months since then, technology developers from each company have worked together, to see what new technologies we could create. The result is this Innovation Vehicle.”
The three versions that have been developed consist of: …
LG introduced its Touch 10 monitor (model: ET83), optimized for use with Windows 8, which was launched by Microsoft last week. Whereas conventional touchscreens enable two-finger dragging, scrolling and pinching, LG’s 23-inch Touch 10 monitor allows all ten fingers to be used simultaneously. The Touch 10 monitor is an excellent choice for those looking to enjoy an enhanced touch computing experience without having to upgrade their entire PC.
For tablet and smartphone owners, the Touch 10 …
Here we are with a monitor to go along with your spanking new Windows 8 powered desktop – the LG ET83 Touch 10 monitor, sporting a 10-point IPS display that will definitely expand the horizon of touchscreen technology. The entire LG ET83 Touch 10 monitor measures 23” across diagonally, and you can use all ten of your fingers on it simultaneously, making it the ideal choice for folks who want to enjoy an enhanced touch computing experience without having to perform a complete and total overhaul/upgrade.
Tablet and smartphone owners ought to be able to take to the Touch 10 monitor like a duck to water, and would even feel as though their smartphones do not offer enough in the long run. After all, majority of touchscreens out there use a two-finger recognition system, but the LG Touch 10 monitor increases that amount fivefold.
The LG ET83 Touch 10 monitor will arrive in South Korea from November onwards, before it is introduced in Europe and the rest of the world. There is no word on pricing as at press time, but we intend to pounce on that when all is revealed eventually.

Ortustech builds the world’s smallest 4K display at 9.6 inches: your tablet has nothing on this
Posted in: Today's ChiliThink that iPad’s Retina display is sharp? Ortustech would argue that it’s old hat. The company’s new LCD occupies a similar dimension at 9.6 inches, but it also carries an extremely dense 3,840 x 2,160 resolution — making it the world’s smallest 4K display at a time when most everyone else is struggling to produce the giant variety. Like with the Japanese firm’s earlier 4.8-inch record-setter, the trick rests in a Hyper Amorphous Silicon TFT (HAST) that lets in more light per pixel and prevents that virtually seamless 458PPI image from becoming unusably dim. Test samples are rolling off the factory lines in November, although we’re not expecting to see Ortustech displays in our tablets anytime soon: sheer performance demands aside, the narrower 160-degree viewing angles and lower 72 percent color gamut better suit the 4K screen to pro video cameras and medical monitors that thrive on sharpness over anything else.

Acer outs T232HL and T272HL touchscreen displays, on sale this month for $500-plus
Posted in: Today's ChiliIt must be Big Touchscreen Day over at Acer headquarters. In addition to announcing a pair of all-in-one desktops, the company is trotting out two touch-enabled monitors, available in 23- and 27-inch sizes. Though both have 1080p resolution, the 23-inch T232HL uses IPS technology to achieve wide viewing angles, while the larger T272HL has a Vertical Alignment (VA) panel.

Ask any PC gamers with a beefy rig, and they’ll tell you that you want to be using a multi-monitor display while gaming. Naturally, gamers aren’t the only ones using multi-monitor displays, as those setups also come in handy in the workplace. There’s just one problem: if your desktop or laptop only has a single video-out, you’re out of luck when it comes to using a multi-monitor display.
Matrox is looking to solve that problem with its new TripleHead2Go Digital SE multi-monitor adapter. Using this, it will allow you to use a multi-monitor display supporting up to three DVI monitors even if your machine only has a single video out. Matrox says that TripleHead2Go – which is compatible with machines using DisplayPort, Mini DisplayPort, or a Thunderbolt port – works with a “wide range of GPUs” running on Windows or Mac computers, but didn’t get into specifics as far as what those GPUs actually are.
TripleHead2Go comes complete with Matrox PowerDesk, which boasts a number of features that give you more control over your multi-monitor setup. One of the features Matrox focuses on in its announcement is Bezel Management, which “compensates for the gap in an image resulting from the bezels of adjacent monitors.” Three monitors not enough for you? If you’re using a Windows PC, you can take advantage of Multi-GXM support and connect two TripleHead2Go adapters, allowing you to use up to 6 monitors at a time.
On Windows, TripleHead2Go is compatible with monitors running resolutions up to 1920×1080 at 50Hz, while on Mac, the highest you can go is 1360×768 at 60Hz. TripleHead2Go will be available sometime next month – Matrox didn’t give a specific release date – and will cost $279.00. In the US and Europe, these multi-monitor adapters will be available directly from Matrox, otherwise, you can find them at any certified Matrox seller.

The great thing about monitors or televisions which are “borderless” is that they give the illusion that the screen is bigger than it actually is. If you’re in the market for such a device, it seems that the folks at AOC have announced their own “borderless” monitor, the 27” i2757fh (pictured above). As you can see in the photo, the monitor has a border although with a bezel of 2mm (oddly enough its product page states 5.6mm despite the press release saying 2mm), it certainly gives the illusion that it doesn’t, and with a price tag of $349, it seems that the AOC i2757fh might not be so unattainable.
As far as its specs are concerned, it’s a 27” monitor with a resolution of 1920×1080. It sports a 50,000,000:1 Dynamic Contrast ratio, a response time of 5ms which is pretty standard, two HDMI ports and comes with two built-in speakers – great for those looking to build a new computer but don’t really want to spend money on speakers. Now the good news is that if you’re sold on this monitor, AOC has revealed that if you were to get it on Bestbuy.com, $50 will be knocked off price tag which means that this “borderless” 27” monitor can be yours for $299.99 – any takers?

Not to be outdone by ViewSonic’s recent introduction of the 27-inch VX2770Smh-LED display, AOC’s coming out with a large IPS monitor of its own. The i2757fh is being touted as a “borderless” panel, and the reason behind that claim is its slim 2mm bezel. Aside from those narrow characteristics, AOC’s new 27-inch monitor also boasts a decent 1920 x 1080 resolution with 50,000,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio, 5ms response time, two HDMI ports and, naturally, the great viewing angles you get with an IPS unit. As far as pricing goes, AOC’s slapping a not-too-shabby $349 tag on the i2757fh, but there is a Best Buy-only deal which knocks 50 bucks off of the original MSRP. Hit the break for an additional angled shot as well as official PR.

In the past one of the things that made computer displays rather unattractive were thick bezels running all the way around the display. Displays are getting away from those thick bezels and offering designs that push the glass all the way out to the edges of the screen. AOC has unveiled the new display that is borderless and impressively thin called the i2757fh.
This display is a 27-inch IPS unit with a 2 mm thick bezel. The thin bezel gives the screen a borderless appearance, and the IPS technology allows for consistent and uniform color at all viewing angles. The display has a unique look-shaped stand that allows the display to be used as a photo frame without a base. The unique stand can also be used as a height-adjustable display that detaches the button press.
The display supports full HD resolution with a native resolution of 1920 x 1080. The display promises to consume little power and has a 5 ms response time. The dynamic contrast ratio for the screen is 50,000,000 to 1. The display has rear-facing ports and supports 16.7 million colors. Connectivity includes dual HDMI ports and a VGA port.
The display also boasts integrated speakers and has an eco-mode. The screen will work with Windows or Mac computers and visually looks a lot like an Apple product. The MSRP for the display is $349. AOC is offering the monitor at retail and online at a special price of $299.99.
