May 20, 2014

Visual solution products provider ViewSonic Corp. today announced the availability of its CDE8451-TL display, an 84-inch, six point simultaneous touch-interactive, large-format display with 4K ultra-HD resolution.

The screen's 4K ultra-HD resolution delivers four times the detail of 1080p full-HD displays, and the display also features a six-point touch-enabled surface that allows up to six users to simultaneously write, draw or annotate with fingers or stylus devices. 

"By combining 4K resolution with interactive touch technology, two great innovations in the display market, the CDE8451-TL offers a best-in-class solution to customers that want high-performance displays," Gene Ornstead, director of product marketing at ViewSonic Corp., said in the announcement. "With its tempered glass overlay, scratch-resistant surface and anti-glare treatment, the CDE8415-TL is the ideal display for resolution-critical applications like graphic imaging, mapping, wayfinding, education or corporate boardrooms."

ViewSonic's CDE8451-TL features a variety of connectivity options, including HDMI, USB and VGA, as well as RS232 for multiple display and device manageability. The display is fit with an ARM dual-core processor, 8GB storage and an Android 4.2 operating system. The on-board Android-based system allows users to take advantage of the expanding range of Android applications for business and educational environments, according to ViewSonic.

The CDE8451-TL comes with ViewSonic's ViewBoard software that allows users to write and edit documents and images on the screen in real-time. With the optional ViewSonic NMP-708 slot-in PC, the CDE8451-TL can be converted into a dual-OS interactive large-format display. The NMP-708 utilizes an Intel i5 processor and an NVIDIA GPU, which ViewSonic said ensures the accelerated video performance needed for 4K content. With a built-in Windows 8 operating system, the NMP-708 provides Windows-compatible touch functionality and access to MS Office Suite applications. And the ViewSonic NMP-708 also delivers additional computing power for users requiring X86 PC architectures, the company said.

The CDE8451-TL 84-inch Interactive Display is shipping for an MSRP of $18,999.99(USD). The NMP-708 Slot-in PC network media player is also available for an MSRP of $1,199.99(USD).
