  • Flat Panel Displays in Perspective
    Flat Panel Displays in Perspective September 1995 OTA-ITC-631 GPO stock #052-003-01438-6 Cover Photo Credit: Plasmaco, Inc. Recommended Citation: U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Flat Panel Displays in Perspective, OTA-ITC-631 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, September 1995). oreword lat panel displays (FPDs) are increasingly important in this informa- tion-intensive era. Compared with the cathode ray tube used in televi- sions, FPDs are thin, lightweight, and power efficient. These displays have enabled the development of portable computers and commu- nication devices. Applications in automobiles and offices will increase, and FPDs may eventually result in the fabled television-on-the-wall. FPDs repre- sent a large and rapidly growing industry worldwide, and are expanding into an increasingly diverse set of systems. American companies and researchers have made many of the key innovations in FPDs, but U.S. firms hold a very small share of the world market. Some observers have called for government intervention to strengthen the U.S. industry. One area of concern—access to displays for military use—has driven recent federal support for FPDs. Flat Panel Displays in Perspective examines the potential benefits of a do- mestic, high-volume, FPD industry for the nation, and evaluates the role of government policies in developing it. The report concludes that such an in- dustry would provide both economic and national security benefits. The ex- tent of these benefits is difficult to determine, however, largely because trends in technology development and industry structure are resulting in more displays at declining prices.

  • An Overview of Latest Display Technologies and Their Usage for Various Special Applications
    Journal of Radio and Television Broadcast Volume 3 Issue 3 An Overview of Latest Display Technologies and their Usage for Various Special Applications 1Dr. Vandana Khare, 2N. K. Shreyas 1Professor, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, CMR College of Engineering & Technology, Hyderabad, India 1Research Scholar, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, JNT University, Hyderabad, India 2B. tech II year, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, CMR College of Engineering & Technology, Hyderabad, India Email: [email protected], [email protected] DOI: http://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.2153526 Abstract In the new world of technology, due to its volatile nature there had been immense changes in the display technology since the past few years. Now it is that when portability plays an important role, the electronic displays of various electronic devices have changed their trend from being heavy and thicker in size to more light and thin in dimensions. This significant change in the dimensions of the electronic displays is due the adoption of AMOLED and Active QLED technology. AMOLED [Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode] is a display technology used in smartphones, mobile devices, laptops and television. A Quantum Dot Display is a display device that uses Quantum dots (QD), semiconductor nanocrystals which can produce pure monochromatic red, green, and blue light. Hence, with the use of these display technologies the manufacturing and usage of flexible and foldable electronic displays have come into existence with low power consumption and low cost, brighter colors with wide color gamut. Also by using this AMOLED and AQLED technology in the latest electronic displays, it is possible to control each and every pixel of the particular display so that, the possibility of manipulating the saturation, brightness, contrast and especially sharpness of the image or the picture increases.

  • Various Display Technologiess
    VARIOUS DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIESS Mr. Virat C. Gandhi1 1Computer Department, C. U. Shah Technical Institute of Diploma Studies Abstract—A lot has been invented from the past till now in regards with the display technologies. It gives an immense life to electronic device when good display technology are being used. Now a days displays are coming in various sizes for different portable devices like smart phones, tablets, smart watch, televisions, laptops etc. People are expecting better display no matter what device they use. In this paper I have given an overview of some of the past technologies to the technologies till now. Flat-panel displays use Liquid-crystal display (LCD) technology to make them much lighter and thinner when compared with a traditional monitor. A liquid crystal display consists of an array of tiny segments (called pixels) that can be manipulated to present information. Plasma panels, also called gas discharge displays, are constructed by filling the region between two glass plates with a mixture of gases that usually include neon. In LED, A matrix of diodes is arranged to form the pixel positions in the display, and picture definition is stored in refresh buffer. OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) technology relies on the organic materials. Keywords— Display Technology; LCD; LED; Flexible display; Curved display; I. INTRODUCTION In today’s smart world, people are carrying smart devices all over the places they visit. Wherever people are they are surrounded or accompanied by display devices, such as smart phones, tablets, notebooks and advertising screens. Different devices uses different display technologies to enrich devices facilities.

Holography is nothing but upgraded level of photography and conventional film and its three-dimensional nature makes it completely new possibilities for future use. Through this project we are trying to help display products, objects, and animated sequences three-dimensionally. 3D Holography is different from conventional film on a standard screen. 3D hologram is visible from all sides, so the observer can walk around the hologram, enabling an absolutely realistic-looking image to form.A video which is to be displayed will be processed. While processing, the image will be dimensionally split in such a way that after it's reflection on the fibre, it could be seen from all sides. The dimensions of the fibre being used will be required to be aligned with that of the image for proper display. The methodology we are using in this project is Reflection Holography using Geometric Transformation [2].

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.

  • Flat Panel Display Technologies and Domestic Firms A
    Appendix A: Flat Panel Display Technologies and Domestic Firms A any technologies are used to create flat panel displays (FPDs). Some were developed years ago and fill small market niches; others have been brought to the stage of M mass manufacturing and are now mature products; still others have yet to be commercialized, but promise superior per- formance and lower costs, compared with current technology. Nu- . merous domestic firms are pursuing FPD technologies; most are small firms that focus on one or a few display approaches, but larger firms have also expressed interest. The distinguishing char- acteristic of the domestic FPD industry is the absence of high-vol- ume manufacturing (see table A-1 for an overview of FPD technologies and domestic firms). Chapter 3 outlined three potential strategies available to do- mestic FPD firms seeking a larger role in the global industry: 1) expand niche markets using established technologies; 2) catch up to leading-edge active matrix liquid crystal display (AMLCD) production; and 3) develop new leapfrog technologies. The fol- lowing sections describe the technology choices associated with each approach, and place the activities of domestic firms into this framework. ESTABLISHED TECHNOLOGIES: LCD, EL, PLASMA Two of the oldest FPD technologies are liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and emissive displays. LCDs are the primary example of transmissive FPDs, which modulate an external light source. Emissive flat panel displays use materials that emit light when an electric field is applied, through phenomena
