reflective lcd display manufacturer
You need a display that can be seen by everyone, everywhere. This is why E3 Displays uses a combination of technologies such as well designed LED backlight rails, LED component selection, optical bonding, and film enhancements to reduce light reflections and maintain or increase contrast for higher efficiency. The results are a display that is viewable in all environments and will create versatility and reliability enabling you and your team to focus on what you do best, rather than the tools at hand.
E3 Displays can enhance your solution by adding filters with AR/AG/AS to combat reflected light and finger marks via coated glass material or film lamination to displays. Your display solution can also be optically bonded, which limits layer reflection with the addition of AR/AG/AS to glass/touch.
As the light reflects off the surface of your display screen, it is scattered at different angles, which reduces the clarity of the image. E3 provides Anti-Glare solutions that ensure the consumer will not see the bright glare of any reflected light source.
E3 deliversAnti-Reflection solutions that make sure the consumer will not see their own reflection. Instead, they will see a brighter and more vivid display.
AF/AS reduces the ability of the cover lens retaining oils from your finger. Thus providing you with a more crystal clear display without all of the fingerprints and smudge marks.
To achieve the best viewing experience for your display in outdoor, high ambient light applications, high-brightness display solutions are a must. Where brightness enhancement, anti-reflective and anti-glare films passively improve a display visibility in these scenarios, active high brightness display enhancements result in best screen visibility.
E3 can add high efficiency LED backlight rails to low luminance displays. This product line provides a simpler, less costly option of replacing lamps and power sources in an existing LCD panel.
Display backlighting can also be replaced to fit a power budget, typically a concern in mobile battery power applications. An E3backlight system can often maintain a level of brightness at a much lower power level than the factory backlight system.
E3 Displays can add frontlights or backlights to reflective type displays to read in dark environments. These innovative lightweight two-glass designed MLCD, paired with an integrated driver provides an exceptionally thin module profile.
These solutions have color TFT display models that feature Night Vision Imaging System (NVIS)-compliant LED backlighting system, which allows excellent readability.

E3 creates out of the box TFT solutions as well as MLCDs or high brightness displays that use reflective technology or increased LED backlighting that produces a sharper image in direct sunlight. These types of displays are commonly found in wearable electronics, measurement tools and other outdoor applications. We work with you side by side to create your custom out of the box display solution that fits your unique goals and we can also work with you to add additional enhancements to maximize your display capabilities.
Reflective polarizers are the best option for direct sunlight displays but are not ideal for low light conditions. Since a reflective polarizer reflects back 100% of the light it takes in, the brighter the surrounding environment, the easier it will be to read the display. Because they are only reflecting light and not creating it, these polarizers are best suited for monochrome displays. Reflective polarizers will increase display contrast and have the minimum amount of power consumption and heat creation.
A backlight will not illuminate the display since any light placed behind the polarizer will be blocked from passing through to the front piece of glass.
Note: It is possible to use a reflective polarizer with a side-lit LED Display, or edge-lit LED Display. A side-lit display positions the LEDs above the reflective polarizer. This is a popular option since it provides a sharp contrast with the added benefit of being thinner (in the Z axis) than a LCD with a backlight.
With a transmissive polarizer, the display backlight must be on for the display to be readable. This type of polarizer does not reflect any light and so therefore, is not ideal for sunlight readability. However, the advantage of a transmissive polarizer over a transflective polarizer is that the backlight is significantly brighter. This type of polarizer is ideal for consistent low light conditions.
The backlight behind a Transmissive polarizer will be brighter than the same backlight behind a Transflective polarizer, making the overall display brighter. It is also possible to reduce the LED driving current with a goal of extending the half-life of the backlight.
The display can not be read when the backlight is off. Also, in direct sunlight the image can seem a bit ‘washed’, but E3 can add AR films to transmissive displays to limit the reflections in outdoors.
Transflective polarizers are a hybrid of reflective and transmissive. They use a combination of ambient light reflection and an internal backlight to create the display image. A display with a transflective polarizer can be used with or without the backlight being on and can also be used in low or high ambient light conditions. Combining a transflective polarizer with E3 optical bonding and contrast enhancement film lamination will create a superior all light readable display with extended battery life and reliability.
A Transflective polarizer allows the display to be read with or without the backlight on. If the Liquid Crystal Display is located in an area with good ambient light, the backlight can be turned off and the display is still readable. When the LCD is moved into poor ambient light, the backlight can be turned on and the display can still be read.
A backlight placed behind a Transflective polarizer will allow some light to pass through, but the display will not be as bright as the same backlight placed behind a Transmissive polarizer. If you need your backlight to be brighter and your display to operate in both strong and poor ambient light, there are additional methods to increase the brightness of the LED.

Displays that are not built for the right environment can cause strain in the viewers eyes. E3 Displays can help in choosing the correct display, like a 2500 nits display for the brightest viewing environments and lower nit displays for indoor viewing to create the perfect balance between indoor and outdoor view-ability.
No project is too big or too small. E3 can enhance displays to be all light readable from >1.0″ to 100.0″, so you can fill the smallest and largest voids for your client.
Your display is an investment into the future of your business and should never be just satisfactory. E3 enhancements are nothing short of high quality and improves the visual performance of your display so you stand out from your competition.
E3 will enhance the best display solution that can withstand the toughest requirements so you can focus on what you do best, providing high quality customer service.
We took the focus away from the technology and redirected it towards your goals. We focus on passive enhancements and limiting backlight power drainage. Your display will last longer and have continuous reliability when you need it most.
TFT stands for “Thin Film Transistor.” These transistors are used in high-quality flat panel liquid-crystal displays (LCDs). TFT-based displays have a transistor for each pixel on the screen. This allows the electrical current that illuminates the display to be turned on and off at a faster rate, which makes the display brighter and shows motion smoother. LCDs that use TFT technology are called “active-matrix” displays, which are higher-quality than older “passive-matrix” displays.
Sizes can range up to 86.0″. Each pixel in a TFT LCD is controlled by one to four transistors which offers greater control over the images and colors that it renders. TFT technology provides up to 4K resolutions, sharp contrast and wide viewing cone options.
E3 Displays specializes in enhancing displays of all technologies. We enable displays to out perform in their standard applications and increase their flexibility for use in ever changing conditions and environments.

Reflective LCD (RLCD) technology has been around for decades, but its original form has long been overlooked when its specs are compared to the color and contrast of backlit LCD and OLED displays. But that time is over.
The limits of power-hungry backlit displays no longer need to constrain where we work and learn online with the advent of LCD 2.0, Azumo’s frontlit reflective LCD technology.
Because RLCD leverages ambient light, it consumes a small fraction of the energy backlit displays require in bright light. While this technology may once have seemed like a footnote in the development of Casio wristwatches, it’s still relevant today and has improved to fit well into devices designed for contemporary consumers’ energy concerns.
With the aid of an ultra slim front light like Azumo’s light guide technology, RLCDs can now perform in low light environments without consuming a large energy budget.
Longer-lasting screen technology that uses less energy and holds a charge for longer is in line with this trend, and RLCD checks both of these boxes for manufacturers and consumers.
Today, everyone is talking about OLED and microLED, and it may seem like the variations of LCD technology just keep proliferating, but decoding display technology isn’t so complicated.
It’s easy to predict that smartphone displays will primarily be OLED within the next five years. This high contrast, high-performance technology will continue to be the best option for television screens for the same reason that microLED will be a natural fit for small, premium displays on smartwatches: these displays deliver the quality and contrast consumers are looking for at the right scale for these use cases.
But neither of these technologies is quite the right fit for tablets and medium-size displays like the ones we see in laptops today. This range of mobile device displays must be…Viewable in bright sunlight and in low light environments
As tablet and computer engineers look for new ways to differentiate their product from the competition, RLCD offers an avenue to improve battery life, reduce energy consumption, and untether devices from indoor environments, allowing students and professionals to truly work from anywhere and in any lighting.
Because LCDs have been in production for decades, manufacturers are already sitting on great equipment that does not require a tremendous amount of work to adapt for RLCD production. With a small market push from consumers, the display manufacturing ecosystem can quickly scale to support growing demand for RLCD in the years ahead.

The Chicago display start-up Azumo just got a vote of confidence from investors, securing $30 million in new financing to drive international expansion, increase manufacturing capabilities and launch new products that use its low-power reflective LCD technology.
“Our LCD 2.0 technology removes the restrictions around how and where we can interact with our devices, and for how long, because it helps displays to sip a fraction of the power and utilize available surrounding light to conserve battery life,” says Mike Casper, CEO of Azumo. “This new financing will allow us to expand sales and applications engineering support globally, grow our international team and continue to deliver on the promises of LCD 2.0 across a variety of industries.”
I did a podcast with Casper about 13 months ago, and described his company’s tech this way: Azumo has developed a micro-thin front light for LCDs, taking the place of the backlighting arrays that illuminate millions or billions of TVs and display monitors. By day, in bright light, an Azumo-equipped display doesn’t even need a light on, front or back. And at night, that front light illuminates the screen.
Right now, Azumo does smaller displays for industrial and medical uses, and is developing the tech for tablets. But the company is equipping its production lines to do larger displays, with the idea that customers like media companies and QSR chains would take a liking to digital posters and drive-thru order screens that didn’t run up big power bills just to be viewable.
Azumo’s technology, says PR, is intrinsically eye safe, extremely thin, and is opening new applications for reflective LCDs across consumer, medical, industrial, and educational markets.
“Azumo is ushering in a new category of display technology, allowing devices with reflective LCDs to work in indoor/outdoor environments, to last longer, and to fit into novel product form factors,”says John Ho, Partner at Anzu Partners, one of the backers.“Since our initial investment, Azumo has solidified its manufacturing and supply chain through a partnership with a leading, global electronics manufacturer, enabling global scale up capabilities and access to new markets.”

A transflective liquid-crystal displayliquid-crystal display (LCD) with an optical layer that reflects and transmits light (transflective is a portmanteau of transmissive and reflective).contrast being constant with illuminance. However, under dim and dark ambient situations the light from a backlight is transmitted through the transflective layer to provide light for the display. The transflective layer is called a transflector. It is typically made from a sheet polymer. It is similar to a one-way mirror but is not specular.
An application is digital LCD wristwatches. In dim ambient light or at night a backlight allows reading of the display in its transmissive mode.alarm clocks for bedrooms may also work this way. If they are battery-powered, the backlight may be push-button operated. The backlighting is usually dim, so that the display is comfortably readable at night. Some 21st century smartwatches such as the Pebble Smartwatch and the Amazfit Stratos also use transflective LCDs.
When an illuminance sensor is added for control of the backlight, such a transflective LCD can be read over a wide range of illuminance levels. This technique is often found in automotive instrumentation. In portable electronic devices the transflective mode of operation helps to save battery charge, since in bright environments no backlighting is required.
Some displays that transmit light and have minor reflectivity are best readable in the dark and fairly readable in bright sunlight, but only under a particular angle; they are least readable in bright daylight without direct sunlight.
