Key drivers in embedded display design into the new decade...

摘要

Today, there are numerous markets and opportunities for hightech electronic products, and their increasing intelligence can support sophisticated user interactions. A display is often the mainstay of the user interface, combined imaginatively with any combination of audio, touch, gesture control or haptics. The display also has a significant effect on the overall appearance and sales appeal, so it's fortunate that designers now have plenty of options to get the effects they want. New sizes and shapes are emerging, there are crisp and cool new monochrome options, curved full-colour displays, and flexible displays are now commercially viable, too. Let's take a closer look... In the industrial world, monochrome technology is still highly desired for many reasons, not least because of its low power consumption, small footprint and low cost. An artfully designed user interface hosted on a monochrome display can be clear, simple, easy to understand, and can respond quickly to the user's demands. Technical advancement of traditional technologies such as STN (super-twisted nematic) and its derivatives has improved aspects such as viewing angle, image quality and high-temperature performance, making these an excellent choice, particularly in the industrial and medical sectors.
