Blanview by OrtusTech = Sunlight Readable + Low Power Consumption

Blanview - OrtusTech’s Unique Display Technology for Outdoor Applications

Blanview is OrtusTech’s unique TFT-LCD technology enabling the display to create high contrast and crisp images even in bright circumstances where sunlight hits the display surface directly. Built with high-quality amorphous silicon (a-Si) technology know as HAST (Hyper Amorphous Silicon TFT), which developed through a culmination of 40 years of display expertise. Ortustech has succeeded in generating new type TFT-LCD with a good balance between Sunlight Readability and Low Power Consumption.

Transmissive Technology

Transmissive is the most common LCD technology that is widely used in many electrical devices. Even though Transmissive can provide clear images in indoor and dark situations, its display readability gets worse in bright outdoor situations. Increasing backlight power can improve the display visibility somewhat, but it boosts total power consumption. This may be a critical impact to battery life in handheld devices.

Transflective Technology

While Transflective is suitable LCD technology for outdoor applications. Transflective has pixels divided into 2 areas, Transmission and Reflection area. The reflection area (reflective electrode) takes a role to reflect incident light from outside. This can give a clear display readability as well as low power consumption. However, the panel transmittance (backlight efficiency) becomes rather lower due to a 2-divided pixel structure. As a result, Transflective inherently has a drawback of large power consumption in indoor or dark conditions. Furthermore, complex pixel structure can cause problems when color levels change from indoors and outdoors. Generally, white color tends to gain yellowish tint outdoors.

1. Good display readability in outdoors and bright environments
2. Keeping low power consumption in any ambient luminance conditions
3. High image quality in indoor or dark environments on the same level as Transmissive
4. Less display performance variation between indoor and outdoor conditions

This unique technology enables Ortustech to take a “hybrid use” of backlight and incident light from outside. Blanview succeeds in not only ensuring superior display readability in any situation, but also decreasing total power consumption.
