Multi-layer LCD Displays

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the screw-alpha-channel-transparency dept.

Jmo writes "Puredepth has started to produce multi-layer LCD displays. They manipulate LCD technology so that one screen can be placed behind another for actual depth. This technology has not even come close to being fully taken advantage of but it is still very interesting and has many implications for the future. Their main product right now is a seventeen inch monitor, the MLD-3000. It is mainly targeted at medical and business fields but it could be used all over."

    I've been wanting to purchase an LCD, but I've been waiting for one to be as big and bulky as a CRT.

    subfolder "Probably Useless"

    Thanks!

    Now I just need to go to the ATM Machine to get cash to buy one. I'd like one to use with my MIDI Interface, but I hope I have enough RAM Memory in my CPU Unit.
