Next gen display systems
Picture a 55-inch retail display that not only shows ads but knows when a passer-by stops, looks, and smiles. No cloud latency, no privacy panic - all the inference happens on a board bolted behind the panel.
The shift to on-panel intelligence
Cloud GPUs are amazing, yet shipping every video frame upstream is a bandwidth and security headache. Edge AI solves that by pushing inference directly to the point of capture and display. With the ALC-4096-AIH you get:
- 4K input on HDMI, DisplayPort and USB-C with 4K panel support.
- Hailo 8 accelerator at 26 TOPS for real-time vision models.
- Raspberry Pi CM5 running full Linux for UX, networking and storage.
- A single 12 V or 24 V supply that fits existing signage and kiosk power rails.
Why “Display Edge” is different
Traditional edge boxes sit in a cabinet meters away. Our controller sits millimeters from the LCD’s timing board. That closeness unlocks three wins:
- Lower latency — processed pixels hit the glass in the next refresh.
- Simpler thermals — shared heatsink path with the panel chassis.
- Cleaner installs — no extra mini-PC or GPU dangling in the enclosure.
Early use cases
- Smart retail: GDPR compliant data collection.
- Industrial HMI: Anomaly detection directly on a operator panel.
- Mobile medical carts: Ultrasound probes stream through CM5, AI highlights areas of interest for clinicians.
