ViewSonic's VP181 ViewPanel is the first 18-inch multifunctional flat panel to incorporate digital, analog, and composite video inputs into an all-in-one display. With its thin 4-inch profile, the adjustable, ergonomically designed ViewSonic VP181 fits easily into confined spaces or can be wall mounted. Its TVT active-matrix display delivers 16.7 million colors. A 1,280 x 1,024 native resolution ( maximum resolution of 1,600 x 1,200) combined with 235 nits of brightness dispense crisp images.

On-demand audio, picture-in-picture capabilities, a variety of supported video formats, and analog and digital compatibility are some of the ViewSonic VP181's many features. It is capable of accepting multiple input signals. You can hook up additional USB peripherals, such as a scanner, camcorder, or DVD player to the USB ports on the base of the display. The ViewSonic VP181 allows composite video input from your DVD or VCR to run live while working real time on other applications. The USB inputs on the base and panel allow flexible configuration.

A pair of built-in two-watt speakers produce stereo sound. There are a number of advanced image and sound options for customized viewing and audio. Software drivers are included that enable you to display in both landscape and portrait modes for full-page viewing.

ViewSonic backs the VP181 with a three-year limited warranty on parts and labor.
