LG Business Solutions USA has unveiled three models of 4,000-nit high-brightness displays designed for visibility in window-facing installations, according to a company press release.
The 49-, 55- and 75-inch class models are suited for locations where direct sunlight shines on displays, and all three are able to be integrated in double-sided installations. The company also introduced a 21.5-inch 1080p outdoor display with a IP56 rating and 1,500-nit brightness.
Each display features Quarter Wave Plate technology that allows clear visibility when viewed through polarized sunglasses. The largest of the models, the 75-inch class model, is LG’s first 4,000-nit display to offer UHD resolution.
«Some environments require purpose-built digital displays, and there may be no environment more demanding than operating in direct sunlight,» Dan Smith, vice president of business development, LG Business Solutions USA, said in the release. «Not only do these displays produce up to 4,000 nits of screen brightness to enable exterior viewing in daylight, they are also designed to quickly dissipate heat produced by direct sunlight that can damage less specialized displays.»
The displays can be oriented either horizontally or vertically and include the webOS 4.1 smart signage platform, an Internet browser, compatibility with the LG ConnectedCare subscription-based remote management system and the LG ecosystem of third-party applications.
