Sharp Corp. said Tuesday it aims to expand sales of LCD panels for business products to establish a more stable portfolio rather than depend on highly volatile consumer products.

The struggling Osaka-based firm still has a technological edge in the LCD panel business, allowing it to provide high-added-value products, it said during a news conference in Tokyo.

At the event, it showed off cutting-edge LCD technologies, including clear and touch-sensitive panels that allow people to draw on them with a brush and panels with unique designs, including a round one.
