Flat Panel Displays

Introduction

Flat panel Displays

Flat panel displays are devices that allow users to view a variety of media. They are characteristically thin and fairly light weight, especially in comparison to the older Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) screens that they replaced. Modern flat panels usually use LCD, LED or OLED technology.

Common examples include:

  • Televisions
  • Computer monitors
  • Airport flight information screens
  • Digital signs and advertising billboards
  • Ereaders
