Apple patents a suitable LCD display for sunglasses

On more than one occasion I have happened that when handling any device under the sun, polarized glasses in hand, the visibility of the panel in question leaves much to be desired. Sony vgp-bps2 wants to change that.

This was reflected in the latest patent filed by the U.S. Cupertino Patent and Trademark Office, entitled “Display Traffic Issuing Polarized Light. ” Bascio describes a liquid crystal panel which reduces the distortion perceived by those users who addressed through polarized filters, such as Sony vgp-bps5.

The document says that the filters in sunglasses block light when a device is seen from depending on what angle, resulting in full screen or Dell inspiron 1501 battery.

What Apple offers is a layer on the screen that converts the linear polarized light into circular polarized light, reducing the distortion mentioned. This would substantially improve the viewing of the iPhone and Dell inspiron 1520 battery outdoors, especially on sunny days.

The register dates from January. These news of Olympus blm-1 are reported by AppleInsider: John Z. Zhong, Wei Chen, Cheng Chen, Victor H.E. Yin and Shawn R. Gettemy.

What Type Of Lens Is Rayban Using On Their Sunglasses

Ray-Ban uses four different types of lenses for their sunglasses. The B15 XLT lens, the G15 XLT lens, polarized lenses and normal lenses, which we won’t discuss here because there’s nothing special about them (they just come in different colors).

B15 XLT Lens Ray-Ban B15 XLT lenses are brownish in color, block 100% of all UV rays and allow only 15% of the visible light to pass through them (that’s an 85% reduction!). These brown lenses also offer a bit more contrast by cutting down on the amount of blue light, as opposed to a G15 lens (which is described in the next paragraph). Blue light is very easily captured by the eye and has the effect of softening other colors that are harsher to our vision. In other words, by reducing the amount of blue light, the differences between colors and brightness of objects are more pronounced.

G15 XLT Lens The G15 XLT lenses have the same properties as the B15 XLT lenses; however they’re of grayish/greenish color. The G15 lens is the original aviator lens that the military requested Ray-Ban to develop. The challenge was to design a lens that was “color neutral”; in other words, a lens that filters light like the human eye does. If you want a lens that offers a little less contrast between colors, then the G15 XLT lens is for you because it offers similar color-sensitivity to the human eye. With a lower contrast lens, the difference in color and brightness of objects will be dampened. This means that the colors you see through these lenses will be natural and soft on the eyes.

Both the B15 and G15 XLT lenses are made of impact resistant optical glass that is naturally scratch resistant. Quality and stability are remarkable and over time you will notice virtually no fading whatsoever in the color.

Polarized Lens Polarized lenses essentially cut down the amount of glare produced by reflective surfaces like water or other semi-transparent objects, and even some metallic surfaces. Glare refers to the difficulty of seeing in bright light.

Sunlight, for example, bounces off surfaces in all directions (i.e. vertically, horizontally or diagonally). For people who are active in the “horizontal plane”, it means that the bright sunlight bounced horizontally enters the eye in a similar fashion. This causes the pupils to constrict and significantly reduce contrast. That’s why drivers have difficulty seeing the road ahead of them if they’re driving in very sunny conditions (if the sun is ahead of them).

Polarized lenses have a laminated surface with vertical stripes that create a filter, which effectively cuts out the horizontally-polarized light and allows only vertically-polarized light in. In other words, if you happen to be on a clear lake you can probably see under the surface or if you’re driving, you can now see the road ahead.

Some limitations to polarized lenses are that LCD displays may become distorted or you may notice a “rainbow” effect if your car’s windows are tinted.
