Abstract

Defense and security applications of flat panel displays can benefit from advances in backlighting techniques and technologies to achieve improved contrast and brightness, enhanced chromaticity, lighter weight, thinner form factor, and overall power dissipation. Capturing these benefits requires consideration of multiple engineering and manufacturing trade-offs and can seem overwhelming for display-head designers. This study focuses on how to determine which trade-offs are important in particular applications, how to evaluate trade-off opportunities for cost and performance while maintaining conformance with applications requirements, and how to create and maintain an effective supply chain while adapting to constantly shifting COTS component availability.
