Chino, CA, May 15, 2017 --- Tianma NLT USA has introduced four new outdoor viewable liquid crystal displays:  an 8.0-inch diagonal WVGA, a 12.1-inch WXGA, a 15.0-inch XGA, and a 15.6-inch Full HD. These modules, developed by NLT Technologies, Ltd., a Tianma Group company, are ideal for industrial applications needing superior viewing in outdoor or other high ambient light environments, such as boating equipment and construction devices.

Ultra-high luminance

The 12.1-inch wide and 15.0-inch modules have a luminance of 1600cd/m², the 15.6-inch wide model has a luminance of 1500 cd/m², and the 8.0-inch wide model has a luminance of 1000 cd/m². The ultra-high luminance results in displays with vivid colors and excellent visibility, even in environments of intense light such as direct sunlight.

Wide operating temperature range

Each of these new products also features wide operating temperature ranges. The 8.0-inch wide model has an especially wide operating temperature range of -40 to +85°C, which allows for accurately displayed images even at very low and high temperatures and in environments with large temperature fluctuations.

Enhanced display performance

The 8.0-inch wide and 15.6-inch wide modules incorporate NLT’s proprietary SFT (Super Fine TFT) wide viewing angle technology. This technology provides ultra-wide viewing angles of 176 degrees horizontally and vertically and reduces color shift that may occur with changes in the viewing angle, ensuring clear images without visual stress in various operating environments.

With the development of more and more industrial display applications, demand for display products designed to withstand outdoor conditions is continuously growing. These new modules not only feature the ultra-high luminance that improves visibility in intense ambient light environments, but also guarantee superior performance under various operating conditions.

Tianma and NLT Technologies will continue to enhance their product line-up to address the wide range of various operating conditions, display sizes and resolutions needed to meet the various demands of the industrial market.

Samples of these new LCD modules will be showcased at Display Week 2017, May 23 to 25 in Los Angeles, California, USA, in booth 1005, and at Computex Taipei May 30 to June 3 in Taipei, Taiwan.
