VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) as it relates to video display on a computer monitor, video card adapter, and display resolutions, produces a universal standard for computer graphics founded in 1989 by NEC Home Electronics and eight other video display adapter manufacturers.
The first VESA standard was for 800×600 SVGA resolution video displays.
The VESA Software Standards Committee was closed down due to a lack of interest resulting from charging high prices for specifications.[2] At that time no VESA standards were available for free. Although VESA now hosts some free standards documents, the free collection does not include newly developed standards. Even for obsolete standards, the free collection is incomplete.
Discussion of VESA complete standards and the organization is beyond the scope of this document.
