LG Bows 98-Inch-Class Ultra HD Display for Digital Signage

LG used the Digital Signage Expo 2015 this week in Las Vegas to bow its “next generation” of digital signage products, including a 98-inch-class 16:9 Ultra HD display with a bezel width of only 0.57 inch that can be mounted in portrait or landscape mode “for use in a wide range of commercial applications,” the company said Thursday. LG also bowed at least two full HD digital signage products featuring a commercial version of the webOS operating system it builds into its consumer smart TVs, the company said. A “simple network management protocol” feature on the products with webOS lets a display “automatically configure a self-diagnosis to check the screen status with a pixel sensor,” LG said. “These features were designed to shorten integration time, reduce maintenance of the displays and allow business owners to focus on what is important for them, their customers.”
