Sunlight Readable Displays

Traditional HIGH BRIGHT (HB) sunlight readable solutions use additonal backlighting to enhance the image when in sunlight. Typical brightness levels for HB displays are from 700cd/m2 ~ 1500cd/m2.

TRANSFLECTIVE (TR) technology allows conventional TFT screens to be re-engineered, without the need for additional backlights. They use high levels of ambient light to increase the brightness level of the TFT via transflective polarizers. This effectively means the brighter the sun, the brighter the image. 

New LED backlight models replace traditional CCFL backlight technology with LEDs, providing even better contrast ratios and low power consumption. Brightness levels of up to 1800cd/m2 can be achieved, with contrast ratios of up to 1000:1. The option to include optical bonding is now available on some of our displays, resulting in a high brightness sunlight readable display with improved ruggedness.
