Briefly, an intelligent label is disclosed that has two viewable surfaces. Each surface is constructed such that a permanent and irreversible message may be set into each surface independently. That is, a first message may be set into the first viewing surface of the electro-optic material, and another message may be set into the second viewing surface, for example, at a later time. Various constructions are described including a construction using two pairs of stimulating electrodes, and a second construction using a single pair of stimulating electrodes.

A circuit board that includes OLED display technology is provided. An OLED display may present light patterns recognizable by a hearing or visually impaired users. The light pattern may be customized by the user. A specific workflow may be associated with a specific light pattern. A light pattern may visually guide a user through a workflow. For example, different menu options may be color coded. High consequence changes may flash with a certain light sequence or pattern. Trusted devices may present a specific light pattern or matrix at login time to confirm that the user is accessing a trusted device.

A multi-functional active matrix display comprises a transparent front sheet, a semi-transparent layer of light emissive devices adjacent the rear side of the front sheet and forming a matrix of display pixels, and a solar cell layer located behind the light emissive devices for converting both ambient light and internal light7 from the light emissive devices into electrical energy, the solar cell layer including an array of electrodes on the front surface of the solar cell layer for use in detecting the location of a change in the amount of light impinging on a portion of the front surface of the solar cell layer.

A display device has a display panel (70) and a color filter layer (72) spaced from the display panel, comprising an array of color filter portions. In a privacy mode (narrow viewing angle mode), the display panel produces output regions of different light output color, which regions are aligned with corresponding color portions of the color filter layer. In a public mode (wide viewing angle mode) the display panel produces light containing all of the output colors to all of the output regions. By providing a color filter layer spaced from the display panel, color filtering is used to control the range of angles over which an image is output. The color filter layer is in essence moved away from the display panel. The spacing between the two and the width of the color filter portions determines the extent by which the light output is angularly limited.

Provided is, for example, a display control apparatus that generates display information for specifying an event occurred in an information processing system easily. The display control apparatus comprising displays, on a display apparatus, information representing an information processing apparatus and information representing a device in accordance with a display mode of arranging the pieces of information around a first area, displays, on the display apparatus, information indicating that a communication is executed between a plurality of the information processing apparatuses in accordance with a display mode of linking information representing the plurality of information processing apparatuses inside the first area, and displays, on the display apparatus, information indicating that processing is executed between the information processing apparatus and the device in accordance with a display mode of linking information representing the information processing apparatus and information representing the device inside the first area.

A display device includes control electronics and a pixellated liquid crystal (LC) panel. The control electronics receives inputs of main image data for a main image and side image data for a side image. The control electronics outputs combined image data combining the main and side images such that an on-axis viewer perceives from the combined image the main image, and an off-axis viewer perceives from the combined image the side image. The output image data comprises data values chosen from a set of available output data values for the pixels selected from multiple sets of available data values depending on at least on the side image data. For a pixel currently being processed, the output data value is chosen from the selected set of available output data values for which a resulting luminance value is closest to a target luminance value for the current pixel.

A data processing system can store a long-term history of pixel luminance values in a secure memory and use those values to create burn-in compensation values that are used to mitigate burn-in effect on a display. The long-term history can be updated over time with new, accumulated pixel luminance values.
