	Displays and display systems - Patent 5329277
		When on the ground, the display unit displays alphanumerically the distance-to-go to the end of the runway, and simultaneously displays stripes that move horizontally to indicate deviation of the aircraft from the runway center line.
		The location of the display unit 4 in the glareshield 5 means that any change in the appearance of the unit is immediately apparent in the peripheral field of view of the pilot when he is looking forwardly through the aircraft window 50, or inside at the main instrument panels.
		This causes a signal to be sent from the display unit 4 to the processor 2, and from there to the receiver 1 which transmit a message to the ground station 6, to acknowledge that the command signals have been acted on.

	Risk Assessment - Visual Display Units
		But some workers may experience temporary visual fatigue leading to a range of symptoms such as impaired visual performance, red or sore eyes and headaches or the adoption of awkward posture which can cause further discomfort in the limb.
		They may be secondary to upper limb or visual problems, but they are more likely to be caused by poor job design or work organisation, particularly lack of sufficient control of the work by the user/operator, under utilisation of skills, high speed repetitive working or social isolation.
		Some VDU users have reported facial skin problems such as occasional itching or reddening of the skin on the face and or neck.

	DIY Calculator :: The Origin of the Computer Console/Display/Screen/Monitor
		Displaying information on a screen is an incredibly efficient way for a computer to communicate with us.
		Similarly, although their rudimentary VDUs could display only a few rows of "fl-and-white" text, anyone who was fortunate enough to own one was deliriously happy to actually see words appearing on their screen.
		In their early incarnations, these displays were very expensive compared to CRT-based techniques; also, the picture quality wasn't as good and the response time of the individual pixels was slow enough that "ghosting" and blurring effects were seen on fast-moving objects in the images.

		The essential components of a visual display unit (VDU) are a keyboard (like a typewriter) and a small television screen.
		Visual fatigue: there are more than a dozen such factors including the size and shape of characters, focus, brilliance, contrast etc. On modern machines and on well- maintained older machines this should not be a problem.
		However some people find that reading from a VDU screen is tiring even when other precautions to minimise eyestrain have been taken.

		Vector displays, as used on the Vectrex, many scientific and radar applications, and several early arcade machines (notably Asteroids (game) - always implemented using CRT displays due to requirement for a deflection system, though can be emulated on any raster-based display.
		With exceptions of DLP, most display technologies (especially LCD) have an inherent misregistration of the color planes, that is, the centres of the red, green, and blue dots do not line up perfectly.
		Early CRT-based VDUs (Visual Display Units) such as the DEC VT05 without graphics capabilities gained the label glass teletypes, because of the functional similarity to their electromechanical predecessors.

		A VDU usually also includes its own display electronics which store the received data and convert it into electrical waveforms to drive the CRT.
		Early VDUs could only display characters in a single preset font, and these were confined to being layed out in a rectangular grid, reproducing the functionality of the paper-based teletypes they were designed to replace.
		Later models added graphics facilities but were still driven via serial communications, typically with several VDUs attached to a single multi-user computer.

	E1455-03 Standard Practice for Obtaining Colorimetric Data from a Visual Display Unit Using Tristimulus Colorimeters
		1.1 This practice is intended as an aid for improving the accuracy of colorimetric measurements made with tristimulus colorimeters on visual display units, such as cathode ray tubes (CRTs) and self-luminous flat-panel displays.
		It is not concerned with effects that might cause measurement bias such as temporal or geometric differences between the instrument being optimized and the instrument used for reference.
		It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

	Visual Display Units
		It is possible for regular users of computers and other equipment with a visual display unit (VDU) to experience some acute ill-health effects.
		Almost invariably problems are caused by the way in which the VDU is used: it’s position on the desk, its height, the quality of the screen, and the posture of the user.
		If users are concerned about their eyes, employers must offer free eyesight tests, and pay for spectacles which are identified as necessary for work with a VDU.

	Radiation and VDT's
		The primary concern in computer use is radiation emitted by the visual display unit, or VDT.
		The proper unit of magnetic field intensity is amperes per meter (A/m), but magnetic fields are often described in terms of flux density (the number of field lines that cross a unit of surface area), expressed in gauss (G) or teslas (T).
		However, at 28 inches (several inches further from the unit), two units had fields greater than the Swedish limit, and several others were close (within.3 mG) to the limit.
