Due to the way LCDs work it’s never useful for a consumer monitor. The backlights needed to punch enough lumens through 2 layers of LCD is prohibitively large/expensive, and the cooling needed to make sure you don’t burn it out leads to a pretty thick and bulky design. Take a look at the professional monitors like this… there’s a reason why they’re so thick, and it’s not because they’re “industrial” or something. Also, power consumption is atrocious.
- rbanffy 2y agoThis sounds like a problem that PixelQi tech could solve - it used prisms instead of filters for colours, which reduced light absorption on inactive LCD pixels, so if the lower LCD is a PixelQi panel, you can add a set of filters with the second LCD panel and drive the backlight harder to gain better contrast (a problem with PixelQi) within the same power envelope of a "regular" LCD.
