Bar-type TFT displays are a popular choice for a wide range of applications, thanks to their unique aspect ratio and high visibility. These displays offer high contrast and brightness levels for easy readability in a variety of lighting conditions. One type of bar-type TFT display is the Stretch Bar Display, which is available in two different types.

The first type of Stretch Bar Display is manufactured as a stretch bar as an original unit. This means that the display is designed and built specifically to have a long and narrow shape, with a length-to-width ratio of 4:1 or greater. These displays are typically used in applications where space is at a premium, such as in automotive dashboards, digital signage, and industrial control panels.

The second type of Stretch Bar Display is created by cutting a standard panel horizontally to give the stretch bar effect. This allows manufacturers to create bar-type displays from existing panels, reducing the cost and complexity of production. However, these displays may not offer the same level of durability and reliability as the original Stretch Bar Displays, and may be more prone to issues such as pixel distortion or image degradation.

Benefits of Bar Type Displays

Stretch Panels are effective at displaying informative and promotional content as they allow for high definition images and messages across a large surface area. Stretch Panels are highly suited for public areas and on transport such as buses, trains and commercial spaces such as shopping centres, theatres and even office spaces.

As Stretch Monitors can be optimised for a range of indoor and outdoor environments, Stretch Panels are designed to resist certain elements such as vibrations from vehicles and different weather conditions if they are to be installed outdoors.

Businesses can take advantage of the space Stretch Monitors provide (and save) to display digital signage andinformative content such as schedules or directional messages, as well as promotional images and video content.

Stretch Monitors are particularly ideal for narrow spaces as these slim monitors can be installed to walls and shelves in portrait and landscape form to create an eye-catching display for those who are short on space.

Our Stretch Monitors are available in various brightness levels, with our highest being 3200cd/m2 which can maintain a high quality, crisp viewing experience at different angles and lighting levels.
