Transmissive LCD panels are nothing particularly new - they basically reflect sunlight back through the panel so as to mimic the effect of a traditional backlight, and as such make the screen usable outdoors - but Casio’s latest attempt is so efficient it doesn’t require any supplementary backlighting at all.  Named Blanview LCD, the system boasts [...]

French imaging company Alioscopy have apparently been drawing crowds at the Singaporean CommunicAsia expo with their 3D display that requires no special glasses be worn by the viewer.  Measuring 40-inches, the demo display has a price-tag of $10,526 and uses an optical filter-coated panel and specially encoded 3D videos that combine multiple perspectives into the [...]

Optoma have announced their latest pico-projector, a cellphone-sized portable presentation device that is the first to use the DLP Pico chipset.  The company has been pretty coy with details - projected size, for instance, is quoted as “up to 100 times larger” than the 2 to 3-inch display on the source device - and aside [...]

NEC have taken the wraps off of the MultiSync EA261WM, a 26-inch desktop LCD monitor with WUXGA resolution.  That means a full 1,920 x 1,200 resolution widescreen panel that, in the EA261WM’s case, boasts a contrast ratio of 1,000:1, 400 cd/m2 brightness and 5ms response time.  Knocking Lenovo’s 22-inch WUXGA ThinkVision L220x Wide into the proverbial cocked-hat, the [...]

Vincent has been hanging out with Microsoft at their latest Surface Blogger Event, getting hands-on with the company’s MultiTouch table.  All of the user experiences we’ve heard about over the past few months were out on show, including the Rio iBar gaming, entertainment browser and virtual mini-bar, and AT&T’s in-store use of Surface as a [...]

Wacom are known for their huge Cintiq LCD displays with pen-input, but the company also makes a smaller, 12.1-inch model intended to be used in your lap.  At $1405 it could hardly be called entry-level, but it has the same 1024 levels of pressure sensitivity, 5080dpi resolution and pen-tilt awareness as its bigger siblings.  PC Authority have [...]

Now I can understand why you might be confused, but these happy looking ladies haven’t started drinking in their local AT&T store.  Actually, Microsoft have agreed to put their Surface MultiTouch touchscreen table in the Rio iBar, offering up a variety of customized games and “flirting” apps that can be controlled by many prodding, drunken [...]

Looks like Wacom’s Cintiq is getting some competition.  Princeton’s PTB-TMW19B might not have a slick name, but the 19-inch widescreen WXGA+ panel does have pen input with 1024 degrees of pressure recognised.  Neatly designed, there’s minimal bezel and a clever twist-to-lock adjustable hinge.

Bless this woman for at least trying to look sultry while sporting a ridiculous pair of VR glasses.  Fresh from Myvu, the oddly-amber frames are the new flagship Crystal 701 model, running at 640 x 480 VGA resolution and promising a 22.5 degree field-of-view; that’s 33-percent wider than previous versions.  Creating the perception of a 4:3 screen 2m [...]

After Microsoft confirmed that the upcoming Windows 7 OS would have native MultiTouch support, interest in large-scale touchscreens has flourished.  That’s good news for Albatron, who have shown up to Computex with a 22-inch LCD capable of recognising multiple points of touch contact.  It works using two sensor bars, one on each side of the [...]
