Sunlight Readable Panel PCs

Sunlight Readable Touch Screen PCs for Outdoor and In-Cab Use

Sunlight readable panel PCs put a 1,000 nit high-brightness screen where daylight falls on the glass: open cabs, decks, yards and outdoor enclosures. Available from 10 to 19 inches with PCAP or resistive touch and sealing from a front IP65 bezel to fully sealed IP66 and IP67, they stay legible where a standard panel washes out.

Options include optical bonding and anti-glare glass, M12 connectors, wide-range DC input with ignition control, 4G and 5G modems and NVIDIA Jetson AI models for vision on the vehicle, suited to agriculture, marine, mining and mobile machinery where the HMI works outdoors all day.

Speak to a panel PC specialist to match the brightness, sealing and power input to your cab or site.

Not sure which range fits? Tell us the application and we will recommend the right model.

What to Specify in a Sunlight Readable HMI

Daylight on the glass washes out a standard screen, so brightness is only part of the answer. Bonding, sealing and power input decide whether a sunlight readable HMI stays legible and running in a cab, yard or deck.

1,000 Nits

High-brightness 1,000 nit panels stay readable in direct sun, where standard screens wash out and operators lose the image.

Optical Bonding

Bonded touch glass cuts internal reflections and condensation, improving contrast outdoors.

Vehicle Power

Wide-range DC input and ignition control on vehicle models, for cabs, mobile machinery and battery supplies.

Sealed Enclosures

IP66 and IP67 builds for decks, yards and open cabs, where rain and spray reach the whole enclosure.

Anti-Glare Glass

Anti-glare or anti-reflective options on the front glass cut reflections from the sky and surrounding lights.

Wide Temperature

Wide-temperature models for cold yards and hot cabs, where direct sun also adds heat to the enclosure.

Sunlight Readable Panel PC Innovation & Outdoor HMI Insights

We specialise in HMIs that stay readable in direct sunlight, on the deck, in the cab and in the yard. Our team of embedded system design engineers recommends and configures sunlight readable panel PCs to the brightness, sealing and power input your vehicle or site needs. Discover how we help farm equipment builders, shipbuilders and fleet operators put a touch screen outdoors, or read our guides to sunlight readability, optical bonding and outdoor enclosures.
