iView LCD screen offers you a unique curvature to match natural eye curvature and movement. This definitely will help eliminating the use of two screens to achieve a larger work area, very useful in urban lifestyle, since the lack of space is going to be our issue in the future. The use of dual screen, strategically put together side by side, originates areas where the visibility is hindered, not only by the proximity, but by the high perspective created by the curve-free plans, as well. With the iView you will get no undesired reflections, remarkably increased working flow and with the presence of all the commands and working plans in one big area, you can now drag them around or zoom them in or out, without any of the usual unnecessary physical interruptions or adjustments.
