Portrait Displays and Philips Consumer Electronics B.V., Establish Display Tune® Software Relationship for New Philips LCD Models

Combined Technology Solution Makes It Easier For Consumers To Maximize The Use Of Their HDTVs

Portrait Displays, Inc., a global leader in visual enhancement software solutions for computer display applications, today announced that its proprietary Display Tune on-screen display (OSD) software technology is a standard feature on select LCD models from Philips.

SmartControl II and SmartManage Lite OSD technology allows end users to adjust their display settings, such as brightness, contrast, color calibration, and image positioning, with an easy-to-use software interface. By eliminating cumbersome hardware OSD buttons, this versatile software control expands the scope of display tuning and allows customization to each individual user profile.

SmartControl II and SmartManage Lite, developed in partnership with Portrait Displays’ core engine, also known as Display Tune, is a paradigm shift for the way users interact with their display. For the first time, users have the power to customize the display characteristics at the click of a mouse.

Philips is a global leader with a concentration in the United States that mirrors their worldwide focus on lifestyle, healthcare, and technology. Philips creates the promise of a strong future by delivering products, services, technology, and solutions through the brand promise of “sense and simplicity”.
