Development of a Color Alphanumeric Liquid Crystal Display. Volume 1.

Abstract

This report encompasses efforts directed toward the development of a Multicolor liquid crystal display suitable for aircraft command and control applications. The approach taken was to combine a striped, color-selective filter with previously developed matrix liquid crystal display technology. Two 1.75 x 1.75 inch displays and one set of LSI drive circuits were constructed. The displays provided 100 elements per inch horizontal resolution and 33 elements per inch vertical resolution, with each vertical element consisting of a red-green-blue triad. While the optical performance of the displays was limited, sufficient information was gained to ensure adequate viewability in subsequent designs. (Author)
