Low cost interface controller for rapid VGA
New from Digital View is a low-cost interface controller that provides direct VGA connection for a wide range of TFT LCD panels with resolutions of 640 x 480.
It can be used on shelves or integrated into any type of advertising solution.
ActivPrint animations are simple, eye catching and effective.
These displays can be positioned anywhere around an environment to truly captivate an audience, build brand awareness and raise sales.
"If a client is not quite ready for video, and print just isn't good enough, now there's ActivPrint", says Dusty Perryman, Director of Sales, Media Products.
"It can handle standard or custom shapes, operates up to a year on two AA batteries, consumes hardly any power, and turns static advertising into a high-resolution animated display that really enhances your message".
ActivPrint uses black (negatively charged) and white (positively charged) pigment microcapsules.
When an electric current runs through it, positive or negative current can be used to control which different colour microcapsules are brought to the surface.
This has the effect of "turning on" positively charged white microcapsules and making the image visible or, by turning on the black, negatively charged microcapsules, making the image invisible (in effect "hiding" it).
Digital View's design team can create customer designs from scratch and, after initial consultation, produce eye-catching solutions that use the technology to its best effect.
Where existing design concepts are to be used, the Digital View team will verify the design and, if necessary, suggest any alterations for submission that are necessary to make it compatible with ActivPrint technology.
Cost is calculated using a number of factors - design work, size of display etc.
