Sunlight Readable, High Contrast, Passively
Enhanced Technology
Reflection
from sunlight destroys contrast in LCD monitors due the gap of
air that exists between the front glass and the actual LCD screen.
Because of the severe difference in the consistency between glass
and air, plus the fact that air actually conducts light, there
are three points of high reflection in a typical LCD with the
air gap. Looking
at the picture below we see the front of the
glass, the back of the glass and the front of the LCD screen are
all reflecting 5% of the sunlight to total 15% reflection. Since
the sunlight is so bright 15% reflection makes the display very
hard to read.
VBOND eliminates the air-gap and in our example
has brought the reflection down from 15% to 2%. The increase in
contrast ratio has gone up to 26:1 from 1.85:1. That’s and
increase of 1400% in these particular conditions. This difference
renders the LCD completely sunlight readable without even increasing
power consumption. There are other benefits to VBOND as well.
Prevents dust, moisture, and heat build up by eliminating
the air-gap between the glass and LCD screen. In fact air-gaps
increase heat while VBOND will actually conduct heat out of the
display unit.
Increases protection for the LCD. Should the front
glass get hit and break there will be a solid layer of protection
between the glass and the LCD screen to protect scratching the
liquid crystal screen.
Adds
structural integrity to the unit by keeping the most important
pieces of the unit solidly sealed together.
