LCD (short for Liquid Crystal Display) liquid crystal display. The LCD structure is to place a liquid crystal cell between two parallel glass substrates. The lower substrate glass is equipped with TFT (Thin Film Transistor), and the upper substrate glass is equipped with a color filter. The liquid crystal molecules are controlled by the signal and voltage changes on the TFT. Rotate the direction, so as to control whether the polarized light of each pixel point is emitted or not to achieve the purpose of display. LCD has replaced CRT as the mainstream, and the price has dropped a lot, and it has become fully popular.
According to data from CINNO Research, 2020 is expected to be the first year for mass production of mobile phones with fingerprint recognition under LCD screens.

XL Tours The Universe with Depeche Mode
Date Announced: 01 Aug 2009
Depeche Mode continue their amazing live performance career, touring their 12th studio album Sounds of The Universe, presenting yet another elegant visual mix of innovative aesthetics, technology and dynamics to their fans worldwide.
Once again, XL Video is air video equipment ?C Custom built screen, cameras/PPU, Catalyst media servers - and crew to the production.
Jon Shrimpton is directing the live camera mix, lighting is designed by Paul Normandale and the stage, set and overall visual vibe has been created by the bands long time artistic director, Anton Corbijn. Filmmaker Corbijn also produced 10 bespoke films for the tour. Project is being co-ordinated from the XL Video UK office by Des Fallon.
Its Shrimptons first DM tour as director - an opportunity which he is relishing! The chance of working with someone as imaginative and influential as Anton is truly inspiring. Initially, I was a bit like a teenager meeting my pop idol for the first time, but I soon relaxed because Antons whole ethos is about the creative process becoming a shared experience and involving others. I have learnt an enormous amount from his vision and approach.
Shrimpton and Corbijn discussed the stage design (on which Corbijn also collaborated closely with Paul Normandale), the lighting is and the mood he wanted to create. The album is calmer and more relaxed than some of their previous work, which set the tone for the From this emerged the substance of the IMAG mix - composed about 50/50 of ideas from Shrimpton and Corbijn - all tightly integrated with and related to the shows playback video material.
In terms of hardware, XL is small two Lighthouse R7 side screens, 7 panels wide by 6 high, positioned as close as possible to the stage to avoid becoming emasculated from the onstage screen, comprised of 42 x 42 panels of Barco MiTrix in 7 of XLs bespoke touring frames. The MiTrix screen is 28 panels high and the same width as the stage set.
Flown in front of this is a 3 x 3 metre MiTrix ball, specially engineered by XL Video. This is primarily used for playing footage - with carefully selected IMAG moments - and sometimes as a block-colour lighting effect.
The content appearing on the ball is thoughtfully composed to be blended or contrasted with that appearing on the large MiTrix screen and/or the sides .... all elements creating a harmonious, stimulating visual experience for the audience. Some fabulous subtleties are interwoven , eg for Walking in My Shoes, a big black crow appears on the back screen, with a close-up of his eye on the ball ... blinking on the fourth beat of every second bar.
Shrimpton is using 5 operating cameras - all Sony D50s - standard definition chosen because of its appropriateness for the MiTrix surface - plus two of his favourite Sony BRC 300 robot cameras, joystick controlled by him at the mixer.
The operated cameras are positioned 2 at FOH, and 3 in the pit - one static on stage right, one on track, and one stage left on a rolling spider tripod. The robots are attached to the keyboard stands - placed after some experimentation during rehearsals .
Shrimpton mixes using his much loved GV Kayak console - on which he is using all 28 inputs, all 10 aux outputs and all 22 Macros.
They are using a customised version of XLs touring PPU rack, engineered by John Steel, which also contains a Magic DVE for backup and for helping make a virtual ball for the festival shows where the real thing cant be used.
Theres a continual active exchange of camera/content feeds between the Kayak and the Catalyst, operated by Richard Stembridge. Catalyst footage is fed to the Kayak to be output to the side screens, and camera feeds are sent to Catalyst for treating (a combination of Shrimpton and Corbijn ideas), sizing and outputting to the back screen via a Barco D320 processor, and for being mapped to fit the ball.
Stembridge operates the latest version of Catalyst running on SSD from a WholeHog II console - with XL a a complete hot backup system. They are using 24 layers simultaneous and 4 Mix Windows for outputting to the 4 screen surfaces. Corbijns movies - all in full HD - are timecode triggered from the bands Pro Tools system.
Shrimpton says its the most considered and gentlest paced mix hes ever cut, all tied in with the lighting cues and the thought-provoking bigger picture sought by the creative team. Its a real honour to be working with such original art legends he enthuses, and 2 months in to the tour he is still experiencing plenty of magic goose bump moments tools operating the show.
Depeche Mode have just finished up their first European leg of the tour and go to the US for 2 months before returning to Europe in November. Live performance dates are currently scheduled to continue until February 2010.
