What Good is a Fishfinder without a NuShield Antireflective Screen Protector

The calendar says it July and the lakes, rivers and ocean are teaming with fish so get out your rods, reels, hooks and pack them all up.  Clean up your boat and get it ready to go.

If you are adventurous then you might want to take part in the 2024 White Marlin Open tournament which will be held August 5th through 9th. This is a 50-plus-year-old deep-sea fishing tournament held annually in Ocean City, Maryland. The tournament awards prize money for catches of white marlin, blue marlin, tuna, wahoo, dolphin and swordfish. And the prize money is outrageous. In 2023, over $10 million dollars were awarded.

These anglers not only have to know the good fishing spots to catch the large ones, but they also rely on their electronic fishfinder instruments.  But the last thing on their mind should be eliminating the glare on the fish finder or GPS. And you probably have the same problem when you’re out on the water where most displays wash out in bright sunlight, making it hard to read the screen and see where the fish are hiding.

The best was to solve this problem is to install a special screen protector film over the display that will make the display visible again and also protect the screen from damage by the constant sunlight. The reduction of the sun’s glare will allow you see which way to point the boat and you’ll still be able to read the screen. How many times did you try to cover the display with one hand while steering with the other? And if you wear polarized sunglasses you have to take them off every time you look at the screen.

The NuShield DayVue antireflective film cuts down glare from the sun and gives your fish finder a level of protection that is not possible with factory coatings. The film does all of the hard work, including protection from scratching, smudging and it is even resistant to oil and other petroleum-based products. And if you are a salt water fisherman, the salty spray from the sea will no longer scrape or wear away the original protective coating. And if you wear polarized sunglasses you’ll find that the screen will still be visible.

The film has a tacky rubberized backing that is easy to apply. NuShield has many sizes to fit virtually any LCD displays found on fish finders, onboard GPS systems, tablets, laptops, and even your television. Just press it on, smooth it out and push out any bubbles trapped beneath the film. That’s it!

NuShield has led the field in screen protection, glare reduction and scratch safety for over 20 years. We currently provide film sizes for over 15,000 devices, ranging from smartphones to large television displays and we add new sizes every day as new devices with different sized screens become available.

Remember, you can’t escape the sun on the open water. Protecting your electronic display from sun damage is essential for a good captain. From scratches, salt water and glare, the NuShield DayVue film is the best way to help your GPS last longer. That is just smart boating.

Why wait? Get your fish protector ready for the season and order your screen protector today. Can’t find your model or size, contact us with your model and size, and we will cut a screen protector to fit for you.

Metal Detecting More Fun With Nushield

As Summer begins more time is spent outdoors as people gather on the beaches and in parks. This time of year also brings out the metal detector enthusiasts who are looking for lost coins, jewelry, and various metal relics in historical parks. You see these folks with what look like sticks and a device sweeping the ground waiting to make contact with a piece of metal.  And many are quite good at this and find things left behind.

If you might be thinking about stating this hobby there are many companies such as Minelab, Garrett, and Nokta. They all offer multiple devices at various price ranges for the expert as well as the beginner. There are also local clubs around the US and the world that you can join. An organization called Focus Speed lists a directory of events as well as articles about equipment and how to find local clubs.

However, once you get out into the field and the sunshine you will notice that the display on these detectors become dark and unreadable in direct light and especially if you are wearing polarized sunglasses to help your eyes see well.  For this reason many “miners” purchase the NuShield DayVue anti-reflective screen protector film. This easy to install overlay film is circular polarized so that the user can see the screen with or without sunglasses in direct sun and it also works with polarized sunglasses.

Most of these displays are small enough for the NuShield Cut to Fit kit which offers two pieces of film, template papers and cleaning wipes. They come in two sizes, 4” x 3” and 3.8” x 2.2”.  Easy to cut, easy to install and will last a long time.

NuShield is a popular screen protector film recommended by users on group forums.  With over 25 years in business, NuShield is a leading manufacturer of glare elimination films for outdoors as well as indoors. From small devices to large television displays NuShield already offers or can easily create new film sizes for any display and it also works with touch screens.

NRA Restaurant Show

Dining Electronically, Almost Futuristic

Imagine a day when you walk into a restaurant. You are greeted by a large display screen that shows the available tables in the restaurant. You select the table and the number of guests by tapping on the screen and entering your name. Lights on the floor direct you to your table where there is a tablet waiting with the menu showing. You select your order and in a couple of minutes a robotic tray brings out your food. After you finish and ready to leave you use the tablet to pay for your meal with a credit or debit card and off you go.

Sound a bit futuristic? Not as far off as you might imagine. 

At the recent Restaurant show in New York City there were various companies featuring food automation robots that can make your food, server bots that can bring and take away food trays and scrubber bots to clean the floors. These robots now take us further into total food automation. Automated vending machines, like those created by G&A Robot, can now cook up meals at the touch of a button, not just store drinks and snacks. Robots made by Todo Robotics can handle several food trays and bring them to tables or take away the dirty dishes.

As you know many restaurants have adopted electronic handheld ordering systems to take your order and also accept payment if paying by credit card. A wireless POS system, such as Micros, TouchBistro, ABC POS, Boxy POS, BIM POS, Clover, ShopKeep, Toast or eZeeBurrp, make it easy for servers to take orders which goes directly to the kitchen, speeding up service and the delivery of your food. All a restaurant needs is a WiFi network throughout its building, and communication between the kitchen and the front of the house is easy.

So where does NuShield come into the picture?

All of these devices operate using an LCD touch screen. But there’s a problem with most screens; they reflect light back into the user’s eyes, in the form of glare. This is inconvenient and makes the device nearly unusable. However, there’s a simple solution. By installing an anti-glare screen protector such as NuShield’s Triple A film on the display screen, glare can be easily eliminated. The display will also be protected against scratches, scrapes, drops and cracks during a busy workday.

The Triple A screen protector comes pre-cut in a variety of sizes, so it’ll fit perfectly to any display. Just peel off the protective liner then smooth it over the screen. It’ll stay firmly affixed, but can be peeled off whenever necessary. And because it’s such a thin film, the display will retain all its touch screen functionality. The Triple A film also has an anti-bacterial feature which kills germs on the film surface, preventing germs to pass between users. As more restaurants employ POS devices, the need for NuShield films becomes even greater.

Contact NuShield Inc. for the best anti glare screen protector made. NuShield has been a leader in screen protection for almost 25 years, and has been providing glare elimination and screen protection for the most unique applications. We currently provide film sizes for over 15,000 devices, from smart phones to large TV screen displays, and we create new ones every day. Can we make one for your device?
