SUNLIGHT
READABLE TFT’s WITH NO EXTRA POWER!!
"VIA bond lamination process"
When a standard window or touchscreen is applied to a TFT, an airgap
is created between the two mediums, resulting in refraction of light.
This leads to internal reflections and display (contrast) washout.
The innovative VIA-bond process fills the gap with specially formulated
material with cross-polymer capability. This creates an optically
matched solution maximising display viewability in a all light levels.
In addition the chemical bond increases the mechanical integrity of
the display.
Display
window or touch is bonded to TFT
•
Internal reflections eliminated
•
Bond cures with time - greater resistance to shock
•
Technology scalable to 65” diagonal
•
Bonding of glass, polycarbonate or touch screen possible
•
Ideal for daylight / sunlight readable conditions
•
Removable / recoverable process
•
TFT glass to front glass contamination or condensation eliminated
•
Intrinsic strength of window assembly increased
•
Bond cures with time - greater resistance to shock
The
technology can be applied to most TFT panels, call us to today to
