Display Metrology


Book Description

A unique and comprehensive book on display metrology written by a leading expert in this field Many think that it is a simple matter to characterize a display but they are more complicated than anticipated because of the legitimate limitations of the instrumentation that often go unnoticed to the novice. There are many pitfalls and problems that can lead to huge errors in obtaining good measurement results. Display Metrology will alert readers to the problems in making measurements on displays, and it will help them avoid these mistakes. Cover the problems encountered in making display measurements from microdisplays to wall and projection displays. Written by an author with extensive experience in this field: serves as the editor of the upcoming new measurement standard of the ICDM (International Committee for Display Metrology) as well as one of its main authors; and continues to provide a short course on the topic. Places a special emphasis on avoiding the pitfalls in display measurement. Introduces the complex system of units used in radiometry, photometry and colorimetry; providing tutorial problems to show how those quantities are used in calculation. Includes reflection measurements and measurements on 3D displays - both these topics are newly developed for the International Display Measurement Standard, and will be dealt with in detail in book form for the first time.




Display Interfaces


Book Description

Display technology is evolving at an impressive rate with LCD and flat panel technologies gaining an increasing market share over traditional CRT display applications. Focusing on the development of new industry standards, this timely exposition of display systems and applications covers display timings, interfaces, specifications, measurement procedures and all forms of display control and identification. Reviews interface and graphics subsystem standards, including FPDI (Flat Panel Display Interface), P&D (Plug and Display) and Intel's Digital Video Interface (DVI) Compares and contrasts current and future developments of television and computer industry standards Describes the major new display system applications (HDTV, notebook computer, cellphone, cockpit instrumentation etc) and illustrates how user needs have dictated technological requirements (eg power, size and bistability) Provides an accessible treatment of current and future display device development, including guidance on selecting devices gor particular applications Designed to meet the needs of professionals using and implementing display technologies and as a reference for those developing new display systems, this text is a valuable resource for display technology developers and system integrators, video graphics interface engineers and professionals. The comprehensive coverage of this leading edge topic makes it also of interest to postgraduate students in Computer Science and Electrical Engineering. The Society for Information Display (SID) is an international society, which has the aim of encouraging the development of all aspects of the field of information display. Complementary to the aims of the society, the Wiley-SID series is intended to explain the latest developments in information display technology at a professional level. The broad scope of the series addresses all facets of information displays from technical aspects through systems and prototypes to standards and ergonomics

Information Visualization


Book Description

"This is a book about what the science of perception can tell us about visualization. There is a gold mine of information about how we see to be found in more than a century of work by vision researchers. The purpose of this book is to extract from that large body of research literature those design principles that apply to displaying information effectively"--




Flat Panel Display Manufacturing


Book Description

An extensive introduction to the engineering and manufacture of current and next-generation flat panel displays This book provides a broad overview of the manufacturing of flat panel displays, with a particular emphasis on the display systems at the forefront of the current mobile device revolution. It is structured to cover a broad spectrum of topics within the unifying theme of display systems manufacturing. An important theme of this book is treating displays as systems, which expands the scope beyond the technologies and manufacturing of traditional display panels (LCD and OLED) to also include key components for mobile device applications, such as flexible OLED, thin LCD backlights, as well as the manufacturing of display module assemblies. Flat Panel Display Manufacturing fills an important gap in the current book literature describing the state of the art in display manufacturing for today's displays, and looks to create a reference the development of next generation displays. The editorial team brings a broad and deep perspective on flat panel display manufacturing, with a global view spanning decades of experience at leading institutions in Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and the USA, and including direct pioneering contributions to the development of displays. The book includes a total of 24 chapters contributed by experts at leading manufacturing institutions from the global FPD industry in Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Germany, Israel, and USA. Provides an overview of the evolution of display technologies and manufacturing Treats display products as systems with manifold applications, expanding the scope beyond traditional display panel manufacturing to key components for mobile devices and TV applications Provides a detailed overview of LCD manufacturing, including panel architectures, process flows, and module manufacturing Provides a detailed overview of OLED manufacturing for both mobile and TV applications, including a chapter dedicated to the young field of flexible OLED manufacturing Provides a detailed overview of the key unit processes and corresponding manufacturing equipment, including manufacturing test & repair of TFT array panels as well as display module inspection & repair Introduces key topics in display manufacturing science and engineering, including productivity & quality, factory architectures, and green manufacturing Flat Panel Display Manufacturing will appeal to professionals and engineers in R&D departments for display-related technology development, as well as to graduates and Ph.D. students specializing in LCD/OLED/other flat panel displays.
