LAS VEGAS, March 12, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Electronics USA today introduced its next generation of digital signage products, led by Ultra HD signage displays and an expanded line of displays featuring the commercial version of its award-winning webOS platform.

Customers attending Digital Signage Expo 2015 (LG Booth #1213) will have the opportunity to discover more about LG's business-to-business (B2B) solutions with indoor and outdoor signage and a wide range of commercial applications for airports, quick-service restaurants (QSR), retail, hotels, education and public settings.

"Our customers are at the core of everything we do," said Kimun Paik, B2B senior vice president, LG Electronics USA, which is the exclusive Gold Sponsor of DSE 2015. "As new applications for digital signage emerge and the category continues to grow, it's our customers' input that drives our commitment to delivering superior engineering in a wide range of real-world commercial applications."

Ultra HD Signage Displays
Exemplifying LG's leadership in 4K Ultra HD display technology is LG's largest 2015 digital signage display, the 98-inch class (98.0 inches measured diagonally) 98LS95A, which is designed to delight both customers and end users. It delivers 3840 X 2160 resolution in a 16:9 aspect ratio, displaying vivid images with superior brightness and an incredible level of detail – four times the resolution of 1080p Full HD displays.

LG's In Plane Switching (IPS) LCD panel technology produces accurate and consistent colors from virtually any viewing angle. The 98LS95A, with a bezel width of just 14.6mm, may be mounted in portrait or landscape mode for use in a wide range of commercial applications.

Full HD Displays with "webOS for Signage"
LG's Full HD Displays with webOS for Signage (models 49LS75A and 55LS75A) were designed with customer's needs at the forefront. These models are equipped with a slim bezel that measures 7.4mm, contributing to a sleek and stylish design. Each model also comes with Wi-Fi connectivity and OPS compatibility.

Viewing is available in either landscape or portrait, and the 49-inch class (48.5-inches diagonally) and 55-inch class (54.64-inches diagonally) LS75A series models are equipped with the IP5X Dust-Proof certification, which protects against contaminants and resists dust for better performance and less heat generation.

The webOS display is also equipped with Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), which allows the TV to automatically configure a self-diagnosis to check the screen status with a pixel sensor. 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.

EcoSmart Features
LG's ENERGY STAR® certified LED signage displays incorporate LG's EcoSmart features, which allow for multiple manual and automatic options for energy conservation and provide an ideal solution for corporate and lodging environments looking to save on energy costs. LG EcoSmart features include:

Dynamic Power Savings: Reduces power consumption and optimizes picture settings
Static Power Savings: Allows the installer to set the preferred power consumption level
Intelligent Sensor: Allows integrators to program the display to respond to the ambient light and automatically reduce brightness, therefore reducing consumption under most circumstances.

Visitors to LG's booth at DSE 2015 (March 11-12, Las Vegas Convention Center, Central Hall #1213) will be able to experience the full range of displays.
