Liquid Crystal Display An electrically-activated material that is composed of a crystal with a polarizing material on each surface When an electrical charge is applied to it, the crystal twists 90°, thus blocking light transmission, just like two camera polarizers would do when at right angles to each other
Liquid Crystal Display A type of display used especially in small portable electronic devices (digital watches & clocks, cell phones, PDAs, etc )
- Liquid Crystal Display: a low-power monitor often used on the top and/or rear of a digital camera to display settings or the photo itself
Short for liquid crystal display; a small, flat, visual screen that employs liquid crystal technology in order to display images
a digital display that uses liquid crystal cells that change reflectivity in an applied electric field; used for portable computer displays and watches etc
Liquid Crystal Display An LCD is the display that lets you see the pictures you're about to take and then review them With an LCD display, you don't have to interpret a light meter or guess at exposure settings The main considerations for an LCD display are its size and ability to preview and review your images In cameras, look for LCDs that measures at least 1 8 inches diagonally; two inches is even better
(Liquid Crystal Display) Two types: (1) a high-resolution color display device used in handheld televisions and digital photography viewfinders (2) A monochrome information display using black alphanumeric characters on a gray/green background
Acronym for Liquid Crystal Display Liquid crystals form patterns when polarized The orientation of the molecules in the liquid are arranged by the meter to form the display
Liquid Crystal Display A small screen found on electronic instruments that displays data
is an abbreviation of liquid-crystal display LCDs are monochrome or color displays commonly used in portable computers, digital cameras, video camcorders, digital watches, and other devices The new generation of flat-panel computer displays use LCD technology as well LCD panels on digital cameras provide a large viewing area, usually about 1 8 inches, which makes it easy for photographers to frame an image You can also preview pictures on the spot using a camera's LCD panel LCDs tend to lose contrast in bright sunlight, however
Abbreviation of liquid crystal display, a type of display used in digital watches and many portable computers LCD displays utilize two sheets of polarizing material with a liquid crystal solution between them An electric current passed through the liquid causes the crystals to align so that light cannot pass through them Each crystal, therefore, is like a shutter, either allowing light to pass through or blocking the light Monochrome LCD images usually appear as blue or dark gray images on top of a grayish-white background Color LCD displays use two basic techniques for producing color: Passive matrix is the less expensive of the two technologies The other technology, called thin film transistor (TFT) or active-matrix, produces color images that are as sharp as traditional CRT displays, but the technology is expensive Recent passive-matrix displays using new CSTN and DSTN technologies produce sharp colors rivaling active-matrix displays
Liquid Crystal Display: For PDAs, this is the visual display and input mechanism for the user
Liquid Crystal Display The type of display found on digital watches and lap-top computers Their major advantage is low power consumption, leading to long battery life for portable devices A color LCD is the heart of the lab's projector
Liquid Crystal Display Indicates mode and all other receiver or transmitter settings
