Whelan Computer Science Department California Institute of Technology Abstraet A display system architecture which has rectangular area filling as its primitive operation is presented. It is shown that lines can be drawn significantly faster while rendition of filled boxes 2 shows an O(n ) speed improvement. Furthermore filled polygons can be rendered with an O(n) speed improvement. Implementation of this rectangular area filling architecture is discussed and refined. A custom VLSI integrated circuit is currently being designed to implement this rectangular area filling architecure and at the same time reduce the display memory system video refresh bandwidth requirements. Introduetion Presently, most computer graphics systems a.re of two architectures. Calligraphic displays render lines a.s their primitive operation whereas raster scan displays render pixels as their primitives. This paper discusses a new type of display that renders filled rectangular areas as its primitive operation. This type of display can be considered a sub-class of raster scan displays and as such it retains all of the attributes of such display systems. This paper examines algorithms for rendering lines, filled boxes and filled polygons and compares time complexities for these algorithms on conventional raster scan displays with those on rectangular area filling displays. This analysis will show that the design and implementation of a rectangular area filling display system is desirable. -

In principle, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) satisfy key requirements for this applicationstransparency, lightweight, flexibility, and low-temperature fabrication. However, to realize transparent, flexible active-matrix OLED (AMOLED) displays requires suitable thin-film transistor (TFT) drive electronics. Nanowire transistors (NWTs) are ideal candidates for this role due to their outstanding electrical characteristics, potential for compact size, fast switching, low-temperature fabrication, and transparency.

Digital Light Processing™: a New MEMS-Based Display Technology
Digital Light Processing™: A New MEMS-Based Display Technology Larry J. Hornbeck Texas Instruments 1.0 Introduction Sights and sounds in our world are analog, yet when we electronically acquire, store, and communicate these analog phenomena, there are significant advantages in using digital technology. This was first evident with audio as it was transformed from a technology of analog tape and vinyl records to digital audio CDs. Video is now making the same conversion to digital technology for acquisition, storage, and communication. Witness the development of digital CCD cameras for image acquisition, digital transmission of TV signals (DBS), and video compression techniques for more efficient transmission, higher density storage on a video CD, or for video conference calls. The natural interface to digital video would be a digital display. But until recently, this possibility seemed as remote as developing a digital loudspeaker to interface with digital audio. Now there is a new MEMS-based projection display technology called Digital Light Processing (DLP) that accepts digital video and transmits to the eye a burst of digital light pulses that the eye interprets as a color analog image(Figure 1). Figure 1 DLP Processing System DLP is based on a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) device known as the Digital Micromirror Device (DMD). Invented in 1987 at Texas Instruments, the DMD microchip[1,2] is a fast, reflective digital light switch. It can be combined with image processing, memory, a light source, and optics to form a DLP system capable of projecting large, bright, seamless, high- contrast color images with better color fidelity and consistency than current displays[3-24]. -
Epson Projector Fact Sheet
EPSON PROJECTOR FACT SHEET 3LCD – A CLEAR DIFFERENCE As the number one projector manufacturer globally1, Epson leads the market in the development of projector technology. Epson projectors use a 3LCD projection engine to deliver bright, clear images that are rich in detail and colour. 2 Many of Epson’s competitors use 1-chip DLP™ projector systems, which create thousands of pulses of coloured light per second. They do this by shining lamp light 3 through red, green, blue and white parts of a rotating colour wheel. These light pulses are 4 then reflected by a DMD™ device, which is on a hinge and has a tiny mirror for each pixel of the image. The series of rapid colour bursts is then projected onto the screen. The viewer’s brain can’t pick out the individual flickers - it mixes the basic colours that appear in succession in each pixel to come up with the final colour the viewer sees. Epson’s 3LCD system works differently, using a combination of dichroic mirrors to separate the white light from the projector lamp into red, green and blue light. Each of the three light colours is then passed through its own LCD panel and recombined using a prism before being projected onto the screen. With 1-chip DLP technology, colour break-up or the ‘rainbow effect’ can sometimes be seen. This occurs when the eye perceives the individual colours, and is a result of the colours being projected sequentially by the colour wheel. Epson’s 3LCD technology avoids this by including all three basic colours in each pixel of the projection, delivering superior Colour Light Output that’s easier on the eyes. -

Considering the typified value obtained from the manufacturer’s specifications, four technologies—Liquid Crystal Displays, electronic paper, Organic Light-Emitting Display and Electroluminescent Displays—were selected in a first iteration. For each of them, several features, including size and brightness, were assessed in order to ascertain possible proportional relationships with the rate of consumption. To normalize the comparison between different display types, relative units such as the surface power density and the display frontal intensity efficiency were proposed. -
