Evaluation of the Clinton Electronics DS2100HB-ST 4 X 3 Aspect Ratio, 21-Inch Diagonal Monochrome Monitor
Abstract
The Clinton Electronics DS2100HB-ST Monochrome CRT Monitor (2 1-inch CRT size, 19.0" viewable area; the selling price is $1995) is a relatively low cost, 1600 x 1280 pixel, monochrome gray scale monitor. It has good image quality and features that make it an attractive candidate display device for NIMA Imagery Exploitation Capability workstations. Based on results of our evaluation, NIDL certifies the Clinton Electronics DS2100HB-ST monochrome monitor as being suitable only for monoscopic, and not for stereo, operation in IEC workstations. NIDL rates this monochrome monitor as a "B" for monoscopic mode and "F" for stereo mode for the Image Analyst and Cartographer applications. In stereo, this monitor can produce a 1024 x 1024 stereo image at 59 Hz per eye, but it has only 47% of the maximum luminance and only 44% of the stereo extinction ratio required by the IEC Specifications. Clinton states that the primary market for this lower cost monitor is for clinical tasks and for training purposes. It is not intended for primary diagnoses of x-ray images.
