The Information Revolution and the Military

Displays are the windows into the digital information age, and thus play a pivotal role in translating data into human action. Translating information supremacy into military capability requires displays of all shapes and sizes. Doing so affordably requires an integrated commercial-military technology base approach.



Display Challenges for Mobile and Portable Products

Mobile and portable products, including devices within the telecommunications, instrumentation, and games markets, have enjoyed a period of rapid growth , the anticipated continuation of this growth presents both great opportunities and great challenges to the display community. These devices have unique requirements when compared to devices used solely in the home or office, including low power consumption, visibility under a wide range of ambient-lighting conditions, and operation over a wide temperature range. The existing and future display requirements for these devices, as well as the potential applicability of new and emerging display technologies, will be addressed.
