LCD panel comes to light
A new 15in LCD panel is designed for use in high ambient light and direct sunlight situations
The new Aaeon PD8500 has been developed to meet growing demand for sunlight readable LCD panels and features an enhanced brightness backlight that improves the display's brightness to 1000nits. In outdoor or high ambient lighting conditions, normal TFT displays experience washout and loss of contrast leading to an unreadable image.
