subject: 8" Open Frame Industrial Displays And Applications [print this page] Open Frame Touch LCDs have innumerous uses in todays LCD Display-driven world. From interactive personal computers, to ATM input units, and kiosks, Open Frame Touch Screens are hard to avoid these days. This article precedes another similar article focused on the importance of and use of the different dimensions of Open Frame Touch Screens. For now, we will discuss the more common 8 Open Frame Touchscreen Monitors.
An 8 Open Monitor Touchscreen monitor is generally used for displaying an interactive Graphical User Interface (GUI) between the user and a machine (computer). Such applications are becoming widespread in the automotive market by using an 8 Widescreen Open Frame Touchscreen LCD monitor as a display gauge for monitoring speed, temperature, RPM and battery voltage in Hybrid Vehicles. The same interface can double into an application that controls your sound system, provides GPS guidance directions, and even control climate controls, all at the touch (or gesture) of a finger. This brings us to one of the major advantages of using an interactive 8 Touchscreen Open Frame Monitor flexibility in installation.
Gone are the days when an LCD display was just intended to be focused on a very limited set of parameters, or one specific task. The 8 Open Frame Widescreen Touchscreen displays can be programmed to tune in to a host of display features and settings by interfacing it with a suitable processing unit. Moving back to the example of the in-car dashboard display unit: an 8 Touchscreen Open Monitor can be used as a gauge or a speedometer that helps you look into the audio system, back cameras, GPS and perhaps even into the vehicle monitoring sensors that you may have scattered across the car such as the ODBII data.
Using a widescreen 8 Open Touchscreen LCD display opens up a new range of applications that can take advantage of the stretched-display, which cannot be done with traditional 4:3 standard ratio displays. The resolution provides by such as display starts at 800x480, and can go up all the way to 1920x1080, allowing for a wide range of high definition images in a small form factor.
In particular, the XRSHST8 8" Open-Frame LCD module provides an optional brightness range of up to 500nits, which is twice the brightness level of typical 8 open frame LCDs displays on the market. This helps the LCD perform really well in higher ambient light conditions, such is on the factory floor, or inside of a retail store. To minimize the glare from light reflections, nearly all of the Revosys Displays have an Anti-Glare solution, which improves image visibility.
Revosys scores another edge here by ensuring that all of its products meet the Grade A Industrial standards. Revosys also offers a full 1 year warranty in additional to responsive after-sales support.
