GDS unveils 70-inch outdoor TFT display

October 29, 2007

CHESHIRE, U.K. — Global Display Solutions (GDS), in association with Distec GmbH, announced the availability of its 70-inch TFT display monitor for the out-of-home digital signage market.

Using GDS's proprietary G-BOND optical bonding process, the display was recently built and showcased at the Viscom show at Düsseldorf in Germany by digital signage specialist Distec. With a 70-inch HD resolution TFT display panel and AR-coated laminated glass, this bonded product was manufactured at GDS's facility in Italy, and was shown at the exhibition before being shipped to America for field trials with a major advertising company.

With the acquisition of Clearview Displays in January 2007, GDS incorporated into its optical enhancement offerings the G-BOND optical bonding technology. G-BOND technology reduces overall system reflection to less than two percent depending on the panel construction, enabling complete sunlight readability without the need for increased display brightness. In addition to improving high ambient light readability, G-BOND provides increased impact protection to the display, improves retention in breakage situations for public protection, removes condensation and fogging and prevents foreign matter intrusion and ingestion that may compromise the picture quality.
