A high-definition IPS screen designed to integrate seamlessly with Raspberry Pi and embedded systems. By utilising the Display Serial Interface (DSI), this unit connects directly to your board via a flexible flat cable, providing both video signal and touch data without the need for bulky HDMI adapters or separate power supplies.

Built for durability and professional integration, the panel features toughened glass with a hardness rating of up to 6H, making it resilient enough for public-facing kiosks or workshop interfaces. With a crisp 800×1280 resolution and 10-point capacitive touch support, it offers the responsiveness and visual fidelity expected in modern tablet-like interfaces, all while maintaining a slim 11.6mm profile thanks to its integrated driver circuitry.

Core Features

  • Streamlined DSI Connection: Connects directly to the Raspberry Pi DSI port, eliminating the need for HDMI cables and separate power bricks, resulting in a cleaner, more compact build.
  • Superior Visual Clarity: Uses optical bonding to fuse the touch panel and LCD, which significantly reduces light reflection, improves contrast, and prevents dust from getting trapped under the screen.
  • Wide Viewing Angles: The IPS panel technology ensures consistent colour and legibility from up to 178°, making it ideal for mounted control panels or dashboards.
  • Robust Build Quality: Features a toughened glass cover with 6H hardness, providing excellent scratch resistance and durability for interactive projects.
