Chimei Innolux Corporation (CMI) will be exhibiting a wide range of innovative technologies featuring 3D and touch screen functionality at the 2012 Touch Taiwan - International Touch Panel and Optical Film Exhibition from August 29 to 31. Products to be displayed include its 56-inch naked-eye 3D QFHD TV panel with high resolution, the large-sized 3D LCD TV panel with narrower bezel, a complete solution of touch panels, and panel technologies for industrial applications. CMI continues to prove its technology R&D drive to stay at the front of trends and to meet customer demands while also accelerating the popularization of 3D and touch screen panels by introducing display technologies that are useful to everyday life.

High-end 3D FPD Technology Enriches Home Entertainment Experience

Large-sized Naked-Eye 3D LCD TV Panel with High Resolution
To popularize large-sized 3D panels, CMI has developed a range of large-size 3D LED TV panels with breakthrough 3D technologies. With high-resolution panels and the Fix Barrier naked-eye technology, CMI demonstrates the 56-inch naked-eye 3DQFHD TV panel technologies and provides product positioning for higher end product applications. Offering a more refined image quality and more realistic 3D-viewing experience in diverse applications, the panel will initially be used in business and medical applications, and then subsequently extended to home entertainment.

3D LED TV Panels with Narrower bezel
CMI has developed large-scale 3D LED TV displays boasting higher power efficiency and narrower bezel, available in 39, 50, and 65 inches. CMI has overcome the technological bottlenecks for large panels with narrower bezels of 6mm and 7.5mm (65-inch). In addition, the stylish, modern design of the displays, as well as their ability to meet top Chinese standards for energy efficiency, provides customers with a valuable and highly competitive selection of displays. CMI has also made important technological breakthroughs in the bezel thickness of its large panel designs, with its 65-inch display featuring a narrower bezel of 7.5mm, which is significantly thinner than the current industry standard for similar size panels of 9.9mm. The structural design can also include FHD and high resolution (4K2K) panel compatibility, giving it the greatest flexibility in effectively enhancing customer end-user product value and marketability. The integration of SG (Shutter Glass) 3D TV technologies is a breakthrough in 2D to 3D conversion software control, ensuring the highest image fidelity when switching between 2D and 3D. With 3D games, CMI turns the home into a pleasure entertainment and TV-viewing environment.

Complete Touch Panel Solution Provides More User-friendly Human-Computer Interface

Self-developed Touch Panel for Higher Product Competitiveness
Constantly improving and developing touch screen technologies in display applications, CMI has successfully created a more convenient and user-friendly operating environment by way of enhanced human-computer interfaces and widely applying them to consumers’ lives. CMI’s 9.7- and 11.6-inch touch panels provide customers with a complete range of touch panel solutions. The proprietary 9.7-inch touch panel integrates cover lens (capacitive touch panel), glass TP sensor (capacitive glass touch panels) or film TP sensor (capacitive thin film touch panels), and LCD to achieve superior illumination performance, while keeping the size slim and compact. The 11.6-inch touch panel combines WIS (Window Integrated Sensor) and liquid crystal display technology for excellent light penetration and image quality. As the sensor is directly embedded into the tempered glass instead of sandwiching it between two pieces of adhered glass which causes bulkiness problems, this slim and seamless adhered panel provides exceptional visual performance, enhancing product competitiveness.

Medium and Large Sized Touch Panels Catering to End-User Demands
CMI has focused its efforts on developing medium and large-sized displays integrated with touch screen functionality. The 21.5-inch touch panel combines the WIS (Window Integrated Sensor) solution with the LCD by embedding the sensor directly into the tempered glass to reduce panel module thickness. The compact design increases product portability, and can better address user needs.

Industrial Panels with Wide Operating Temperature

CMI's broad range of widescreen industrial LCD products provides customers with diverse options. Besides the 12.1- and 15.4-inch models on display, CMI has introduced the 10.4- and 12.1-inch models featuring wide viewing angle, high brightness and XGA resolution. These products significantly reduce the environmental restrictions on use and provide an optimal field of view as well as a higher degree of convenience.

Industrial LCD panels are widely used in factory settings, cashier machines, ordering machines and ATMs. With customers’ needs in mind, CMI’s industrial LCD panels provide a wide operating temperature (from -30 to 80℃), making them ideal for demanding environments such as freezers, steel-smelting factories or high temperature places exposed to direct sunlight. The panels use LEDs with longer life expectancy and hot-swap illuminating sources to achieve longer product life and lower replacement costs.
