A software and hardware solutions provider, DisplayLink has announced that the company has developed technology starter kits designed to enable manufacturers to embed USB connectivity and DisplayLink virtual graphics in display applications such as bar code readers, HMI devices, point-of-sale hardware, digital signages, household appliances and vehicles.
The company’s Executive VP, Marketing and Business Development, Dennis Crespo stated that since several existing “smart” embedded applications need to provide comprehensive information to the consumer in several displays through remote or different locations, the low latency and high bandwidth of the DL-1x5 series of DisplayLink’s USB graphics ASIC devices are an ideal solution for manufacturers since they can use several cost-effective, low power displays without adding extra hardware. Additionally, external devices can be operated without any connecting power cord by using USB 3.0 or USB 2.0 cable for power transmission. In short-range low latency conditions, USB connectivity is more useful for embedded virtual graphics than Ethernet.
Richard Blake stated that the embedded technology developed by DisplayLink has been implemented in an ambulance information system to facilitate dual, simultaneous operation of various applications that enhances functional efficiency and enables quick emergency response times.
Dennis Crespo concluded by stating that the technology developed by DisplayLink will provide consumers with high performance USB connectivity and virtual graphics and is an economic and convenient solution.
