Sharp creates tactile experiences at ISE with its PCAP screens

The interactive application developed on a 55” PCAP touch table, with which visitors to the event can learn about the portfolio of products and solutions of Sharp Europe, along with the premiere presentation of the EC series, dvLed screens with COB technology and low energy consumption, focus the company's proposal.

With the motto Focus – Now and Beyond, Sharp Display Solutions Europe, professional audiovisual technology division of Sharp Europe, shows in your space (3E500) to visitors of WHEREAS 2026 a proposal focused on reliability, the accuracy and sustained operation of your display technologies.

At your booth, the company exhibits new interactive experiences based on their touch screens with projected capacitive technology (PCAP), oriented to information applications, sale, entertainment and collaboration in corporate environments and public spaces.

One of the central elements of this proposal is a interactive application developed on a 55” PCAP touch table, created in collaboration with the company specialized in interactive software eyefactive, with which visitors can intuitively know the catalog of products and solutions from Sharp with a multi-touch navigation experience.

The eyefactive company provides the interactive software layer, allowing the simultaneous interaction of several users on a large format screen, integrated into a Taurus table, a support designed by this same company to install the visual system in a horizontal position, accommodate the internal components and facilitate their continued use in public and professional environments.

Sharp MultiSync M2 PCAP

The proof is based on the new MultiSync M2 PCAP from the manufacturer, a range of touch screens designed for intensive interactive applications. as signage at points of sale, museums or orientation systems in buildings.

This new series, whose market availability is scheduled for April 2026, offers screen sizes of 43, 50, 55 y 65 inches, with a level of shine of 550 cd/m², anti-reflective panels and SpectraView Engine processing engine for accurate and homogeneous color reproduction.

Your design in frameless glass allows the installation of screens in vertical format, horizontal or dessert, with up to twenty points of contact for simultaneous interaction with fingers and stylus.

Sharp MultiSync M2 PCAP offers a operational 24/7, with options simplified connectivity via USB C and Network security based on IEEE 802.1x, making it easier to deploy in environments managed by IT departments. The modular architecture and its connection flexibility contribute to prolonging the life cycle of the installation and facilitating future expansions.

“Interactive touch technology plays an increasingly important role in the way organizations present information and facilitate user engagement in business environments.”, informative and collaborative - ensures Daniela Dexheimer, Product Manager, Collaboration Technologies, Sharp Display Solutions Europe. This demonstration shows how the new MultiSync M2 PCAP displays translate the company's focus on precision, long-term reliability and value to high-quality, intuitive touch experiences for public spaces and professional environments”.

In this line, Johannes Ryks, CEO de eyefactive, points out that “our goal is to develop interactive experiences that are intuitive, attractive and scalable, and the collaboration with Sharp shows how multi-touch software and high-performance PCAP displays can be seamlessly integrated to create applications that encourage content exploration and user engagement.”.

This company demo at ISE 2026 is framed in the One Sharp proposal, that integrates into a single offer its AV technologies, IT solutions and managed services, with the aim of facilitating the implementation of complete projects in different types of professional environments.

EC series with COB technology

Another novelty that the company presents at ISE 2026 it's the new one EC series of dvLed screens with COB technology, aimed at organizations seeking robust visual surfaces, efficient from an energy point of view and with high performance.

The incorporation of COB technology, developed to respond to user demands in aspects such as surface durability and black level performance compared to other LED technologies, offers a more uniform and stable display in professional applications of continuous use.

Besides, reduces energy consumption up to 60% compared to conventional SMD solutions at equal brightness levels, what contributes to reduce operating costs in installations with prolonged operation, as well as to facilitate the fulfillment of energy efficiency objectives.

Sharp EC offers a contrast ratio of until 10.000:1, providing greater image depth and deeper black levels, as well as remote power control through the accessory RPS-CL-R, which facilitates more comfortable and flexible energy management in professional installations.

This new series will be available with pixel steps 0.9, 1.2, 1.5 y 1.8 mm, facilitating its use in different installation configurations and viewing distances in meeting rooms, auditoriums, educational centers, shops, leisure spaces and digital signage projects.

The protected surface of COB technology provides greater resistance to dust, humidity and accidental contact. Besides, makes cleaning easier and reduces the risk of damage during installation and maintenance, especially relevant aspects in public environments and facilities where high system durability is required.

As he assures Nils Detje, Product Manager for dvLed Solutions at Sharp Display Solutions Europe, “With the launch of the EC series we expand our offer of dvLED solutions with a proposal that combines energy efficiency, robustness and image quality, facilitating its adoption in corporate projects, educational and digital signage where long-term reliable operation is required”.

Modular solution based on Raspberry Pi technology

Another announcement in the Sharp contest is a new modular solution for digital signage, called SDM MPi5 Kit, developed in collaboration with Raspberry Pi, since it incorporates its Compute Module 5.

This kit is part of the brand proposal One Sharp – digital experience, that integrates professional screens, modular computing, software and services to create smarter digital environments, safe and prepared for the future. So, SDM MPi5 represents an advance in the evolution of embedded computing in professional displayss when combining the specification Intel SDM with Arm architecture, which allows integrating the capacity of processing directly on the screen no need for external players.

SDM MPi5 Kit has been designed to incorporate AI capabilities flexibly, fruit of collaboration with specialists in this technology such as Hailo, so that the screens can perform advanced image analysis tasks and other processes at the point of use, also maintaining an open architecture that allows the integration of new software solutions.

As he adds Erik Elbert, Senior Product Manager at Sharp Display Solutions Europe, “SDM MPi5 Kit combines the flexibility and performance of Raspberry Pi technology with the modularity demanded by the professional AV market.. It is an open platform prepared for the future, “which allows you to integrate new applications and analysis capabilities directly on the screen”.

The new kit is designed for organizations that manage large networks of displays and require a high level of control over the operating system and IT infrastructure, especially in Linux based environments, for use in flight information systems applications (FIDS), informational and user orientation signage and other critical environments in which reliability, control and the ability to adapt quickly are decisive.

With reduced energy consumption, This solution allows you to integrate internal storage, expandable via M.2 slot, for local playback of large volumes of content, and incorporates an additional HDMI output for a second independent video signal. Besides, It has an M.2 slot compatible with specific AI accelerators, to run analytics and computer vision applications directly on the screen, without dependence on the cloud and with low latency.

“Our collaboration with Sharp reflects the growing demand for energy-efficient and robust Arm solutions in professional environments – underlines Eben Upton, CEO y fund
