Pixel Qi True Sunlight-Readable Displays

Solar Technologies is proud to be an authorized distributor of Pixel Qi true sunlight-readable displays. (Qi, pronounced “chee”, is the circulating life energy that in Asian philosophy is thought to be inherent in all things.) Pixel Qi's patented technology allows readability in full sunlight, while significantly lowering power consumption.

With Pixel Qi's patented transflective technology, the difference is dramatic. Since Pixel Qi's innovative solution doesn’t rely on brighter backlights to achieve readability, power demands are not increased. In fact, Pixel Qi monitors are extremely energy-efficient.

Pixel Qi's innovation has earned them coveted awards and recognition within the display industry, including the 2010 IEEE ACE Award for the “Emerging Technology with the Greatest Promise for Financial Success”, as well as the 2010 SID “Display of the Year” Silver Award.
