  2. Liquid-crystal display - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-crystal_display

    A liquid-crystal display ( LCD) is a flat-panel display or other electronically modulated optical device that uses the light-modulating properties of liquid crystals combined with polarizers. Liquid crystals do not emit light directly [1] but instead use a backlight or reflector to produce images in color or monochrome.

  3. Active-matrix liquid-crystal display - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active-matrix_liquid...

    An active-matrix liquid-crystal display ( AMLCD) is a type of flat-panel display used in high-resolution TVs, computer monitors, notebook computers, tablet computers and smartphones with an LCD screen, due to low weight, very good image quality, wide color gamut and fast response time. The concept of active-matrix LCDs was proposed by Bernard J ...

  4. Response time (technology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Response_time_(technology)

    Response time is the amount of time a pixel in a display takes to change. It is measured in milliseconds (ms). Lower numbers mean faster transitions and therefore fewer visible image artifacts. Display monitors with long response times would create display motion blur around moving objects, making them unacceptable for rapidly moving images.

  5. Display lag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_lag

    Display lag is a phenomenon associated with most types of liquid crystal displays (LCDs) like smartphones and computers and nearly all types of high-definition televisions (HDTVs). It refers to latency, or lag between when the signal is sent to the display and when the display starts to show that signal. This lag time has been measured as high ...

  6. Earned value management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earned_value_management

    Earned value management (EVM), earned value project management, or earned value performance management (EVPM) is a project management technique for measuring project performance and progress in an objective manner.

  7. Fire alarm control panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_alarm_control_panel

    A single-zone alarm control panel. A fire alarm control panel ( FACP ), fire alarm control unit ( FACU ), fire indicator panel ( FIP ), or simply fire alarm panel is the controlling component of a fire alarm system. The panel receives information from devices designed to detect and report fires, monitors their operational integrity, and ...

  8. Liquid crystal on silicon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_crystal_on_silicon

    Liquid crystal on silicon ( LCoS or LCOS) is a miniaturized reflective active-matrix liquid-crystal display or "microdisplay" using a liquid crystal layer on top of a silicon backplane. It is also known as a spatial light modulator. LCoS initially was developed for projection televisions, but has since found additional uses in wavelength ...

  9. Critical path method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_path_method

    In project management, a critical path is the sequence of project network activities that adds up to the longest overall duration, regardless of whether that longest duration has float or not. This determines the shortest time possible to complete the project. "Total float" (unused time) can occur within the critical path.
