  • TFT LCD Display Technologies
    Ref. SE-03 TFT - LCD Display Mélanie Gaillet - Application Scientist - Thin Film Division Most displays in current use employ cathode ray tube (CRT) technology similar to that used in most television sets. The CRT technology requires a certain distance from the beam projection device to the screen to function. Using other technologies, displays can be much thinner and are known as flat-panel displays. Flat panel display technologies include light-emitting diode (LED), liquid crystal display (LCD) and gas plasma. LED and gas plasma work by lighting up dis- play screen positions based on voltages at different grid intersections. LCDs are categorized as non-emissive display devices, in that respect they do not produce any form of light. LCDs either pass or block light that is reflected from an external light source or provided by a back/side li- ghting system. LCDs require far less energy than LED and gas plasma technologies and are cur- rently the primary technology for notebook and other laptop computers.

  • Screen Size Selection
    Screen Size Selection One of the most important decisions in screen selection is to determine the correct size of screen based upon the dimensions of the audience area and the projection format(s) to be used. In some situations, these two questions yield the same answer; in • Ceiling Height—The bottom of the screen should be approximately others they do not and compromises must be made. Here are the key 40–48" above the floor in a room with a level floor and several rows considerations— of seats. In rooms with theatre seating or only one or two rows, • Audience Area—In determining the correct screen size in relation to such as a home theatre, the bottom of the screen should usually be the audience area, the goal is to make the screen large enough so 24–36" above the floor.

  • Display's the Thing: the Real Stakes in the Conflict Over High Resolution Displays
    Display's the Thing: The Real Stakes in the Conflict Over High Resolution Displays Jeffrey Hart and Michael Borrus (c) Copyright Hart and Borrus 1992 I. Display's the Thing: The Real Stakes In the Conflict Over High- Resolution Displays In Akira Kurasawa's film _Rashomon_, several witnesses to a murder tell the story of what they saw. Despite viewing the same event, the witnesses' stories are radically different, so much so that the event itself is ultimately called into question. So has it been with the debate over the next generation of high- resolution video technology. Some look and see a bigger and better television set (high-definition television or HDTV), but usually dismiss what they see as economically (though perhaps not politically) insignificant.1 Others look and see a significant component technology (high-resolution displays or HRD) beginning to pervade a wide variety of electronic systems. They recognize in displays a technological kinship to silicon chips -- an industry with potential strategic significance for commercial and military applications. But the conflict of perspectives should not, as it did in _Rashomon_, cast doubt on the event. The high-resolution display industry is a symbol of a major transformation underway in electronics: that is, the emergence of new component, machinery, and materials technologies driven by commercial, high-volume, integrated micro-systems applications and controlled increasingly by a few integrated producers located outside the United States. This paper argues that the industrial and geographic concentration of the sourcing, development, production, and integration of electronics technologies and systems in Asia portends new patterns of industrial constraint and opportunity, with significant economic and military implications.

  • Playstation Fiesta Bowl and the Cactus Bowl
    #41 BEST INDIVIDUAL SPONSOR FOLLOW UP REPORT ifea submission 2018 41) BEST INDIVIDUAL SPONSOR FOLLOW-UP REPORT Overview Information Introduction and Description of Main Event The first Fiesta Bowl game was played in 1971 after much effort from a group of nine visionary business leaders who worked tirelessly to bring a post-season college football game to the state of Arizona. Since that time, the Fiesta Bowl organization has grown into much more than just one game. The Fiesta Bowl’s vision is to be a world-class community organization that executes innovative experiences, drives economic growth and champions charitable causes, inspiring pride in all Arizonans. As a nonprofit organization, we believe in the importance of fostering a culture of community outreach and service. Based in Scottsdale, the Fiesta Bowl hosts a variety of local events each year, as well as two elite bowl games – the PlayStation Fiesta Bowl and the Cactus Bowl. Together, these two events generate $170 million in economic impact for the State of Arizona.* In 2014, the Fiesta Bowl became a part of the College Football Playoff along with five other storied Bowl Games, collectively “The New Year’s Six.” Each season, the Fiesta Bowl matchup is determined by an independent selection committee tasked with ranking the top 25 teams in the nation, placing the top four teams in designated Semifinal games and the remaining eight teams in the “Host Bowls.” The Fiesta Bowl is a College Football Playoff Semifinal game every three years, beginning in 2016 and again in 2019. The Fiesta Bowl is played at University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona with a stadium capacity of 68,000+.
