MAHWAH, N.J., July 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America (SIICA), a division of Sharp Electronics Corporation, today announced the 20-inch-class (19.5" diagonal) full HD multi-touch monitor, LL-S201A, showcased at InfoComm 2013, has begun shipping.

The LL-S201A, part of the Professional Touch Display product family, packs the power of the award-winning Sharp AQUOS BOARD™ Interactive Display System into a sleek, lightweight design. Ideal for use in business, medical and education environments as a complement to the AQUOS BOARD display, the LL-S201A is an indispensable part of everyday communication, no matter who is using it.

The 20-inch-class touchscreen LCD panel delivers 1,920 x 1,080-pixel full-High Definition resolution with performance-enhancing UV²A technology to help prevent light leakage for truly bright whites and extremely deep blacks.

The 10-point multi-touch screen and Palm Cancellation Function prioritizes the touch of the pen over the touch of your hand so you can write smoothly with the pen, while your hand rests on the screen. When connected to a device running Windows® 8, the monitor serves as an intuitive interface. The display also offers a variety of usage styles to match the way you work.

Standing Style - A dedicated stand props the monitor at an easy-to-view 75 degree angle, making it ideal for use as a PC monitor or display.

Pen Writing Style – Sharp Pen Software™ utility lets users enjoy natural handwriting functionality, just like the AQUOS BOARD Interactive Display.

Tablet Style - Laid flat and facing upwards, the monitor can be viewed like a sheet of paper or a tablet, allowing for several people to view at once.

Weighing only 5.1 lbs. and approximately 1-inch thick, the thin, lightweight design makes it easy to move about and enables users to easily switch between standing, pen writing, or horizontal usage styles. The LL-S201A also features a narrow half-inch bezel and a "full-flat" screen that's seamlessly flush with the bezel. This makes it ideal for touchscreen operations that involve swiping from the edge of the screen.

The LL-S201A is now available from Sharp Authorized Pro AV Dealers and Resellers. The shipping weight for the LL-S201A is 9.5 lbs.
