New LCD claims brighter outdoor viewing
If you've ever found yourself squinting in vain at an unreadable display on a digital camera or cellphone on a bright, sunny day, help may be on the way. BOE-Hydis of Korea is showing off a new LCD that the company claims provides sharper, brighter images than existing displays. The new TFT display has a contrast ratio of 700:1, 260 nits brightness and a 180-degree viewing angle. According to BOE-Hydis, enhancements that have improved the display's viewability include removing the black matrix, which divides red, green, and black pixels and lowers transmission. New polarizers equipped with anti-reflection films are also used.
