  • How do I compare LCD monitors?
    Mar 28, 2025
      When shopping for a new LCD monitor, it’s essential to compare key features to ensure you get the best display for your needs. Here’s a detailed guide to help you make an informed decision: 1. Compare LCD monitors by screen size when you begin your search for a new monitor. Actual Screen Siz: LCD monitors are sold by their actual screen size, measured diagonally. Popular sizes range from 15 inch monitor to 19 inch monitor, but larger options are also available.Space Considerations: Measure your workspace to determine the ideal screen size that fits comfortably.Aspect Ratio: Check the screen ratio (e.g., 4:3 for standard displays or 16:9 for widescreen). Widescreen monitors are great for multitasking and media consumption. 2. Look at the resolution offered by the LCD monitor.  Pixel Count: Resolution refers to the number of pixels the monitor can display. Higher resolutions (e.g., 1920x1080 or 4K) offer sharper and more detailed images.Versatility: Ensure the monitor supports multiple resolutions (VGA or SVGA standards) for compatibility with different devices and tasks. 3. Watch for the contrast ratio somewhere on the LCD monitor packaging or information pamphlet.  TThe contrast ratio is measurement from the brightest to the darkest parts the screen can display. Higher ratios show the LCD monitor will show deep blacks and bright whites better. 4. View the angles at which the LCD monitor is easily viewable.   LCD monitors work using pixels which are most easily seen straight on. If the monitor is turned slightly one way or another, viewing will be distorted and washed out. Look for a high rating. The angle rating is usually listed in degrees. The optimal, but usually impossible, viewing angle would be 180 degrees. The 180-degree viewing angle would mean the screen could be visible from anywhere in front of it without distortion. 5. Find an LCD monitor with a higher refresh rate.  TThe refresh rate refers to the amount of times the screen will refresh itself to allow for as clear a picture as possible. LCD monitors with a refresh rate in the 70s will show a very clear picture without the presence of flickering caused by slower refresh rates.6. Watch out for LCD monitors that don't have the connectors you need to hook up to your current computer.   The most common LCD connector is the DVI digital connection (white connector). Some newer LCD monitors may have an HDMI or DisplayPort connector which is a digital connection that allows for a clearer, brighter picture. The digital connection may not work with very old computers without the proper converter cables. Most monitor displays still carry legacy analog VGA connectors (DSUB-15 or HD15). This is the connector used on older CRT monitor. You will also use this if you use your motherboard's integrated video.

  • Build a portable computer with Raspberry Pi and desktop monitor
    Dec 27, 2024
    As the demand for mobile devices in life and work increases, we have to consider how to improve portability without losing computing power and functions. At this time, the combination of Raspberry Pi and PC monitor can provide an excellent solution, allowing us to complete computing tasks conveniently anywhere.   In this article, we will introduce how to build a portable computer with Raspberry Pi and LCD monitor.   Step 1. Prepare your Raspberry Pi and Desktop monitor   First, you need to buy a Raspberry Pi, which can be easily obtained on the Internet. In addition, you need to choose an LCD monitor according to your specific needs. Depending on the actual situation, you may need to choose a high-definition LCD monitor or a small-size LCD monitor, etc.   Step 2. Connect Raspberry Pi and LCD monitor   Now, you need to connect the Raspberry Pi and LCD monitor. Depending on the type of LCD monitor you choose, you may need to use an HDMI, VGA, or DVI converter to achieve the connection. In this case, VGA monitor, HDMI monitor as well as DVI monitor are all suitable choice for  the Raspberry Pi.   Step 3. Install the operating system   Next, you need to install the Linux system or other operating system supported by the Raspberry Pi and save it on your SD memory card. You can learn more about the operating system through the documents provided by the Raspberry Pi official website or search for other related documents on the Internet.   Step 4. Install the required software   After you have installed the required operating system, you need to install some software to complete the required computing tasks. Depending on your needs, you may need to install software such as a web browser, office suite, programming software, etc.   Step 5. Connect external devices   To complete your portable computer, you also need to connect external devices such as a mouse, keyboard, USB drive, etc., so that you can complete computing tasks more conveniently and efficiently.   Step 6. Complete the setup   Finally, you need to complete the setup to ensure that your portable computer runs according to your actual needs. After completing the setup, you can now turn on the Raspberry Pi as a portable computer to complete computing tasks.   Summary   In order to help our customers able to achieve a more convenient way, we can can help to install the Raspberry Pi at the back side of our monitors by monitor vesa mounts. So if you have any inquiry for Raspberry Pi monitors, just feel free to contact with OSCAN! Meanwhile, using Raspberry Pi and LCD monitor to build a portable computer can achieve many advantages such as high portability and strong expandability, allowing you to efficiently complete computing tasks at any time and place. Moreover, using Raspberry Pi and LCD monitor to build a portable computer can also make your life and work more convenient and efficient.
