ViewSonic Proudly Presents the World’s First LCD with 4 Milliseconds
A True Breakthrough from the US California Research Team

14 April 2005

Hong Kong, 14 April, 2005 – ViewSonic Corporation, a worldwide Visual Technologies leader in new style of digital entertainment, is creating a new chapter for the development of LCD display by introducing today the world’s first LCD with 4 milliseconds- VX924. The ViewSonic VX924 LCD is stylish in outlook with prevailing features, i.e. the exclusive second generation of ClearMotivTM Technology that includes the Dynamic Structure Technology and Amplified Impulse Technology to effectively reduce the response time of the liquid crystal in presenting true crisp images. This is a new record breaking in LCD response time for the ViewSonic R&D team after the introduction of the world’s first LCD with 8 milliseconds.

“Large display and speed efficiency in response time are the two main criteria in designing LCD displays. Being the world’s renowned LCD brand, ViewSonic is always leading the industry with its visual technologies, e.g. the first to introduce a 16 milliseconds LCD display in 2003 and subsequently advancing further the response time to 8 milliseconds in the second half of 2004, and in the absence of few months to introduce the unprecedented response time of 4 milliseconds. In the near future, ViewSonic will continue to improve the response time and add-on powerful features to a LCD display. In addition, ViewSonic has already achieved more than 2,000 awards worldwide. In 2005, we trust that with the technology breakthrough and product quality, ViewSonic will continue to remain as the leader in the industry” said Mr Alan Chang, Vice President of Sales & Marketing, ViewSonic Asia Pacific.

The promising speediness of ViewSonic VX924 LCD came from the technological advancement of new ClearMotivTM technology which includes the Dynamic Structure Technology and Amplified Impulse Technology. In addition, the new ClearMotivTM technology is not only employing the Advanced Overdrive Technology but combining with Firm Ware to control the overdrive impulse timing and voltage in order to improve the liquid crystal response time to the world’s fastest time at 4 milliseconds! Comparing the traditional Overdrive Technology, the new ClearMotivTM technology can effectively improve the gray-to-gray response times and revolutionize the black-to-white response times that have stubbornly resisted improvement, and thus making any multimedia visuals or 3D gaming graphics a brand new experience to end consumers. The 4 milliseconds response time of VX924 LCD could eliminate the symptoms of flicker images and it is very close to the response time level of CRT. The ViewSonic VX924 LCD is adopting the OptiSync technology which equips with DVI and RGB input. For professional usage, combining the DVI input with a graphics cards will create the effects of clearer and stable color degrees and received different signal sources. In addition, it has a high resolution of 1280x1024, contrast ration of 850:1, high brightness of 300 nits and the viewing angle of 170 desgree horizontally and 170 degree vertically.

ViewSonic Research & Development Team
The ViewSonic R&D team at the US Headquaters in Walnut, California had been introducing many breakthrough technologies. In 2003, they had successfully introduced the 16 milliseconds LCD employing the exclusive ClearMotivTM technology to effectively reduce the response time of liquid crystal for better imaging presentation. Thereafter, the 12 milliseconds LCD was stunningly introduced in the second quarter of 2004. When other brands were about to be on par with this achievement, ViewSonic announcement the exclusive arrival of Dynamic Structure Technology and Amplified Impulse Technology in third quarter of 2004 to lead the industry by introducing the 8 milliseconds LCD. These two technologies with the new liquid crystals material and overdrive technology can effectively modify the response time speed and capable of displaying at 125 frame rate, and thus eliminate the flickering image of LCD display. Today, ViewSonic is announcing another R&D breakthrough by introducing a 19” LCD with 4 milliseconds – VX924 and this will be seen as a brand new chapter to the development of LCD.

Little Dictionary of Liquid Crystal:
Dynamic Structure Technology
Using the new liquid crystal to improve response time and set a new benchmark on the effectively. The core function of the DST is to lower the viscosity of liquid crystal, reduce the cell gap thickness, increase the voltage and dielectric anisotropy, and together with the new programming to create stunning response time.

Real Speediness – Amplified Impulse Technology
The traditional calculation formula of Black-to-White response time could not fulfill the needs of real imaging display. To improve the smoothness effect of imaging, the gray to gray formula calculation is adopted. The new generation of ViewSonic LCD is capable of presenting real response speed through the AIT technology and with the overdrive technique to apply a “full-white” drive signal for a brief duration, in order to give the pixels a “jump-start”. Amplified Impulse Technology allows gray-to-gray transitions to be completed up to 5 times faster than typical “fast-response” LCD displays.
