Sharp Display Solutions America, the audio visual technology business division of Sharp Electronics Corp. (SEC), has announced the upcoming launch of its EC Series dvLED displays, expanding its E Series category with advanced chip-on-board (COB) construction that provides enhanced image quality and greater durability than traditional surface-mounted devices (SMD).

Designed to address increased user expectations for performance and sustainability at a competitive price point, the EC Series features an innovative new cabinet design, which cuts down installation time significantly — by as much as 50%. Ideal for retail, education, corporate and public environments, its COB technology lowers power consumption — up to 60% less than standard SMDs — while reducing long-term energy use and operating costs, without sacrificing brightness.

"We are proud to introduce the EC Series, designed to deliver exceptional quality, performance, and durability in the dvLED segment," said Mark Miller, product manager, dvLED, Sharp Display Solutions. "This series reduces complexity for integrators by providing a substantially reduced installation time, and demonstrates our commitment to empowering users with future-ready display solutions that create powerful visual experiences."

Available in pixel pitch sizes of 0.9, 1.2, 1.5 and 1.8 mm, these new dvLED displays offer significant innovation and added value for organizations looking for robust, energy efficient and high-performance displays. They feature an excellent contrast ratio of up to 10,000:1, so users can present their content with vivid clarity.

The series will begin shipping in April 2026.
