Display technology is so absolutely fascinating. The various forms of LCD (VA/TN/IPS), the various forms of backlighting (Edge, FALD, etc), the shrinking size of the LEDs (regular, mini, micro), now OLEDs and quantum dots, etc. There's even more wild options like e-Ink.
And there's a ton of work happening on the software/firmware side too. VRR, Backlight strobing, HDR support, high refresh rates, wide color gamuts, low latency technology, pixel shifting and brightness limiting for OLED, FRC (frame rate control), DSC (display stream compression), etc.
It's an incredibly innovative field. Every year we're getting closer to an ideal display. I am so excited to see what we get in the next 10-20 years. It will be leaps and bounds above anything available today.
