Sharp announces Q-SYS(TM) Verified Plugin for Sharp large-screen displays. MONTVALE, N.J., Aug. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - The audio-visual technology business within Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America (SIICA), a division of Sharp Electronics Corporation (SEC), today announced the Sharp Displays control plugin, which enables direct control and monitoring from within the Q-SYS Full Stack AV Platform. The plugin has received the Q-SYS Verified badge and is now available in Q-SYS Library. "Q-SYS is a widely adopted platform in enterprise and education environments, and this Q-SYS Verified plugin reflects our commitment to meeting customers where they are," said Mark Quiroz, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Sharp's Professional Display Division. "By integrating Sharp displays directly into the Q-SYS Ecosystem, we're helping integrators deliver consistent, high-quality AV experiences with greater efficiency and confidence." Developed in collaboration with Q-SYS and supported by Control Concepts, the Q-SYS Verified Plugin allows integrators to manage key display functions, including power, input selection, audio, brightness, diagnostics and status monitoring - directly from the Q-SYS Full Stack AV Platform. It supports all current Sharp large-format displays, Sharp All-in-One dvLED models, and legacy NEC large-format displays. There is also flexibility to access other display functions using Sharp's expansive control set. This is part of a shift toward simpler integration for partners, making it easier to specify Sharp in projects where Q-SYS is the designated platform. "We are always very excited to see manufacturers such as Sharp take steps to better integrate with predominant control system platforms. This will increase the quality of systems that require programmed control," said Joey D' Angelo president of D'Angelo and Associates, an independent AV systems consulting firm. The plugin is available through Q-SYS Library under Sharp Displays and includes configuration guidance and a detailed list of supported display models.

"We are excited to connect with customers and partners at this year's InfoComm 2026 to discuss the future of Sharp display technology," said Mark Quiroz, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Sharp Display Division. "We have chosen to prominently feature our latest products on the show floor in collaboration with a few strategic partners, complemented with targeted meetings and discussions focused on our latest efforts and ongoing commitment to develop display solutions engineered for superior quality, performance, and longevity." The AV industry increasingly delivers value through integrated solutions and partners rather than standalone products from manufacturers. As customer needs continue to evolve, Sharp is placing greater emphasis on meaningful, one-on-one engagement. This year's approach enables deeper conversations with customers, partners, and prospects around their specific business challenges and technology priorities, while still allowing attendees to experience Sharp innovations through its partner ecosystem across the show floor. For the first time at InfoComm, Sharp and BrightSign will debut a new solution featuring Sharp PN-M and PN-P series displays and its SDM Player with BrightSign(R) Built-In, a powerful System-on-a-Chip (SoC) solution that transforms how organizations deploy digital signage. Designed to slide directly into the Intel(R) Smart Display Module (SDM) slot of Sharp's professional displays, this solution eliminates the need for external cabling, power bricks, or mounting hardware. Sharp's All-In-One Display, LD-A1651, will take center stage in BrightSign's booth. Offering an intuitive SOC platform, the All-in-One dvLED displays create a unified user experience across Sharp's SOC display ecosystem and are designed for quick, hassle-free installations. It is a striking centerpiece built to elevate presentations and capture attention on the trade show floor. To ensure attendees maximize their InfoComm experience, Sharp is featuring its latest technology within additional strategic partner booths across the show floor. This includes Sharp's award winning All-In-One Direct View LED displays and traditional LCD displays that are engineered for performance and valued by global corporations, educational institutions, and retailers. To facilitate more focused discussions, technical workshops and demonstrations, Sharp will also host meetings at the "Sharp Oasis" located at the Las Vegas Country Club. Demonstrations of the newest solutions will include: * Sharp SDM Player with BrightSign Built In - in addition to being featured in BrightSign's booth, customers can also see this newly developed, customer-led solution while meeting with the Sharp team. * LD-EC Series dvLED - the new award-winning dvLED line redefines visual excellence by utilizing advanced Chip-on-Board technology, which delivers stunning contrast ratios up to 10,000 to 1, while simultaneously offering up to a 60% reduction in power consumption and a 50% faster installation time compared to traditional solutions. * LD-M Series COB All-In-One dvLED - Sharp's next generation All-In-One dvLED series, coming later this year. The series includes 108-inch, 135-inch, and 162-inch class size Full HD models, powered by COB technology for improved energy efficiency, greater durability, and reduced installation and maintenance costs. * PN-LB3 Series AQUOS BOARD(R) interactive displays - Sharp's newest addition to its interactive lineup. Now available to order in 65-inch, 75-inch and 86-inch class sizes, the new PN-LB3 Series offers a powerful, all-in-one solution that simplifies communication, enhances engagement and delivers seamless collaboration to classrooms, corporate workspaces, and digital signage.
