20110310085 | IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE, ELECTRONIC APPARATUSE USING THE SAME, DISPLAY OUTPUT CONTROL METHOD FOR IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE, AND OUTPUT CONTROL PROGRAM THEREOF - Provided is a display device having a viewing angle changing function, which is capable of preventing leakage of information displayed on a display screen even when there is a fault generated in changing the viewing angle. The image display device including a viewing angle changing element capable of changing a wide vision display and a narrow vision display and including a display element is provided with a detection element which detects a fault generated in the viewing angle changing element and a module for changing to a narrow vision display when there is a fault based on a detection value of the detection element. For example, when there is a fault, a transparent heater is operated to heat a liquid crystal layer to set a transparent-scattering changing element to a transparent state and forcibly set the display device to a narrow vision display. | 12-22-2011 |
20130182201 | LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY WITH NARROW ANGULAR RANGE OF INCIDENT LIGHT - A liquid crystal display includes a liquid crystal panel in the pixel electrode and common electrodes formed within a pixel comprise repeating structures.
