General Digital Corporate Profile

Where We’ve Been and Where We’re Going


Length 2:27

From its inception in 1973, General Digital™ has delivered to the market scores of standard and custom flat panel products, optical enhancements and software solutions.

VuePoint II, circa 1984In 1977, General Digital™ invented the VuePoint™, the world’s first gas plasma, flat panel serial terminal with integral touch screen, which then evolved into the VuePoint II™ and then the Smart VuePoint™. In 1992, long before anyone realized the benefits of such a design, General Digital™ introduced the SlimLine™, a 2U high (3.50"), “flip-up” LCD monitor with an integral keyboard and pointing device.

SlimLine, circa 1992Though many “copycat” devices are widely available today, only General Digital’s™ ruggedized, specialized and customized products are built to last for years, while offering the greatest flexibility necessary to keep pace in today’s rapidly changing market. As a matter of fact, much of our VuePoint™ and VuePoint™ II product line is still in service today in the Printing, Flight Simulation and Powerplant industries, and many first-generation SlimLine™ units are still in use by the U.S. Navy. The VuePoint™ product line has proved to be so popular, that a third-generation VuePoint™ III LCD terminal was recently developed and is being delivered today.

Today, we continue to serve the marketplace with advanced design and engineering capabilities as evidenced in our diverse line of LCD monitors and associated hardware products, optical enhancements, contract manufacturing, and software engineering services. Our hardware products range from terminals to WUXGA LCD monitors to fully integrated industrial computer systems, and include:

SlimLine Lite II, circa 2003Whether your need is for an off-the-shelf flat panel LCD monitor or a state-of-the-art LCD display system, you can count on General Digital’s™ experienced sales engineers to assist you in every way possible. We will help you with product configuration, work closely with you in prototype development, and propose innovative solutions to meet your application requirements.

For over 30 years, General Digital™ has solved the industry’s toughest flat panel display problems, while providing the kind of “old-fashioned” service that is rarely found in contemporary, high tech firms. Being independently owned and operated, you deal with on-the-job, concerned individuals, including a professional sales staff and well-trained fabricators. General Digital™ is large enough to handle most custom fabrication needs, but small enough to give each of our customers the kind of quality service and respect they deserve.

General Digital headquarters in South Windsor, CTGeneral Digital™ remains a proud entrepreneurial company with deeply rooted traditions of quality and service. We have evolved into the industry’s leader in innovative flat screen LCD display design and integration. We continue to provide turnkey software solutions and consultative engineering services. General Digital™ stands as a strong, viable force in the industry, poised to meet the challenge of your specific needs. And we would like to note how grateful we are for our customers’ referrals of friends and associates to General Digital™.
