5 Inch HDMI LCD 800x480 - Capacitive Touch

While we often like to build Electronics projects that work relatively silently and simply produce results without any kind of interruptions or human interaction, some of the more advanced and functional projects sometimes require Modules and components to give us humans a better way to interface with the system, so that we can make on-the-fly adjustments or enjoy a wealth of information in easy-to-understand ways. This is why we always strive to stock great tools and modules like these 5 Inch HDMI LCD Displays, which feature a 800x480 resolution and Capacitive Touch functionality, so that we can not only interact with our projects for more enhanced versatility, but actually do so in a way that we’ve been practicing for years – with our eyes and hands.

These 5 Inch HDMI LCD Displays are perfect tools for interfacing with your electronics, as they provide a visual explanation of what’s happening “under the hood”, so as to give us a better understanding of what our projects are doing, as well as easily readable information for projects involving data logging or variable settings – just like many of the larger appliances that we all have at home. It is compatible with a wide range of different systems, including dev’ platforms like Raspberry Pi, but also larger systems like personal computers, custom Ubuntu workstations, or even 3D Printers and other machinery. These Displays are TFT LCD modules, which employ an impressive colour gamut for their low cost, and offer a convenient HDMI output to handle both video and audio, with an included HDMI to Mini HDMI adapter cable as well in order to accommodate some of the smaller Development Platforms too.

And finally, just to top it all off and ensure that users have everything they need to maximise their viewing experience, this display unit also features a built-in OSD menu, which allows you to fine-tune your display with brightness, contrast, and even power management settings, all of which is available in multiple languages and designed with an intuitive and easy-to-use interface. So, if you’ve been looking for a nice quality display to give your projects more functionality, while giving you as the user a more convenient and natural-feeling way to interact with your projects, then this 5 Inch HDMI LCD Display is an excellent choice that is both affordable and highly versatile – offering the best of both worlds with very few drawbacks, if any.

Please Note: This 5 Inch HDMI LCD Display offers 5-Points Multi-Touch, but this may not work on some versions of Windows 7. However, for all later versions, the multi-touch functionality should work perfectly.
