LG's Advanced In-Cell Touch System Allows For Lighter Displays

— July 6, 2015 — Tech
Advanced In-Cell Touch technology is all set to make LG's displays more high tech than ever before, subsequently helping them develop some of the lightest and thinnest notebooks on the market.

This technology features a touch sensor embedded inside the LCD panel itself, which means there's no need for a special touch screen component on top of the actual screen. This allows for the new displays to be 1 mm thinner and as much as 200 grams lighter -- an impressive 35 per cent reduction in the weight of the panel.

Notebook technology has grown in leaps and bounds in recent years, but customers continue to crave increasingly thinner and lighter models. The Advanced In-Cell Touch technology will enable reduced thickness and weight without compromising on display definition and quality or general tech specs.
Trend Themes
1. Advanced In-cell Touch Technology - Advanced In-Cell Touch technology enables displays to be thinner and lighter without sacrificing quality or specs.
2. Lightweight Notebooks - Customers continue to demand increasingly thinner and lighter notebooks, driving innovation in that area.
3. Embedded Touchscreen Sensors - The use of touch sensors embedded inside LCD panels eliminates the need for a separate touch screen component, enabling thinner and lighter displays.
Industry Implications

2. Computer Hardware - Demand for thinner and lighter notebooks is driving innovation in the Computer Hardware industry, as companies search for ways to make their products stand out in a crowded market.
3. Consumer Electronics - The trend towards thinner and lighter displays and devices is a major driver of innovation in the Consumer Electronics industry, as companies strive to meet customer demand for portability and mobility.
