Embodiment Construction

[0014] As discussed above, the present disclosure relates to surface display units including opaque screens, various aspects of which are described in detail herein.

[0015] The figures are not drawn to scale. Multiple instances of an element may be duplicated where a single instance of that element is shown unless explicitly described or otherwise clearly stated that there is no duplication of the element. Ordinal numbers such as "first," "second," and "third" are used only to identify like elements, and different ordinal numbers may be employed across the description and claims of the present disclosure without limitation. As used herein, a first element that is "on" a second element may be on the outside of a surface of the second element or on the inside of the second element. As used herein, a first element is "directly on" a second element if there is physical contact between the surface of the first element and the surface of the second element.

[0016] As used here...

Abstract

A surface display unit incorporates an opaque screen (180) and an image panel (110). The opaque screen is disposed on the front side of the image panel which provides an optical image. The opaque screen generally hides the image panel while the surface display unit is not in use. When the image panel is activated to provide an optical image, the opaque screen provides a suitable level of transparency so that a viewer can observe the optical image with sufficient clarity. The opaque screen can provide optical enhancement, decorative texture, and / or mechanical support and include antiglare, anti-reflective, and anti-scratch films (140, 150, 160). The opque screen can be a laminated polymer film, an electrochromic or photochromic system, or a switchable dye doped liquid crystal material.
