LCD displays brought a crystal clear experience to the world of video enjoyment though advancements in technology that started years ago. The lightweight construction of previous devices was too appealing to leave behind and improvements in materials and technology brought brighter things to life. Learn how these devices became a part of everyday existence.

In the beginning were pocket calculators and wristwatches with LCD displays. A person could manage a checkbook without waiting until they got back to the office or returned home. Some of these were solar powered and did not care if the light source was artificially supplied. Wrist watches included additional features to help keep track of important dates, and only needed a battery replaced approximately once a year.

Mobile devices carrying LCD displays made an entrance on the stage of life and provided people with the convenience of never missing a phone call. Color and the ability to code tasks and important dates to maintain priorities became commonplace. Then the keyboard became a scaled down version of a computer keyboard and life changed for the better. Texting was no longer an arduous task.

Motorized vehicles experienced standard features that replaced the old mechanical dials of meters and gauge reports with interesting LCD displays. The dashboard became a place to imagine sitting at the cockpit of a plane with every light revealing some important information about the operation of the automobile. Of course, a digital clock was included in the mix for another example of liquid crystal displaying.

Television was no longer a tube type monitor. Pixels became tiny embedded crystals with mysterious abilities to change colors for high definition fast action movies, sports, and televisions viewing. A pixel is not a word derived from Pixies, although both of them seemed filled with magical capabilities to provide vivid colors. Clarity became a term used in digital information instead of an exercise in mind control and self-improvement.

Video advertising freed itself from the prison of home entertainment systems built into heavy wooden boxes. Outdoor signage caused new activities for people driving to work as they watched colorful messages dance across the big screen. Rush hour traffic changed to an almost enjoyable experience while watching the electronic marquis as it painted weather reports, news headlines, and reminders of upcoming events.

Scoreboards at sports arenas changed from placarded numbers put in place by a human being. LCD displays not only presented immediate tally of the last point made, they showed the exact play-by-play that resulted in changing the possible outcome of who would win the game. Mechanical devices no longer had a place where digital equipment and electronics ruled.

LCD displays are also available with USB powering. The energy efficiency ratings surpass previous expectations and assist in lowering utility bills. About the time touch screen became old-fashioned 3D video brought virtual worlds to computer games for people all across the globe. There is certain to be more details to follow in this technology that continues to develop.
