LCD Technology


LCD, (Liquid Crystal Display) the technology that took over our world about five years ago is found in most of the devices we use today. Our TVs, cell phones and computers (just to name a few) all operate by the use of LCD technologies. The possibilities are endless and quite promising. LCD works by the passing of each LCD pixel (made up of three sub-pixels in red, green and blue) through white backlighting in order to appear. The amount of light determines that passes through each pixel determines what color is produced. As a result of this innovative form of color reproduction, a single LCD pixel triad can reproduce 16.8 million colors. This means that we get high resolution, outstanding image stability, and a crisp, bright image. Consumers who anticipate viewing a lot of text as well as graphics often choose LCD products. Additionally, an LCD TV lasts 50,000 hours.
