 | | Those schemes "solve the general problems of sending data at relatively low power [and are] suited for notebook-computer configurations, where a simple display is connected to a powerful computer," said Phillip Alvelda, president and founder of MicroDisplay, in San Pablo, Calif., which started sampling its liquid-crystal-on-silicon (LCOS) displays just last month. |
 | | The problem with "low-voltage differential standards, as they currently stand," is they "monitor consumption levels that seem high when compared with the latest displays and display developments," Alvelda said. |
 | | That power reduction, coupled with the new capabilities of intelligent displays, demands a standard model that should be "optimized for bidirectional communications, yet maintain the ultralow-power attributes," he said. |
