The transparent screen exists like a piece of glass that can emit light. No lines can be seen, but it can show pictures. When many people see it for the first time, they will be stunned. The picture floats in the air, and the background can penetrate through. This is not a special effect in a science fiction movie, but a product that has gradually entered shopping malls, exhibition halls and even homes over the past few years. It is okay to say that it is amazing, but it is normal to say that it is useless. The key lies in how you use it.
Is the display effect of the transparent screen really clear?
The clarity of transparent screens has always been a key point that cannot be avoided. Its working principle is to cleverly embed luminescent materials between two pieces of transparent glass. In this way, the brightness of the screen is often higher than that of ordinary screens, but the contrast will be reduced. For example, in a bright and well-lit shopping mall environment, the white background will eat up some of the screen details, and the color saturation will also be reduced to a certain extent. This is not a quality problem, but caused by the physical limitations of the technology itself.
A boss installed a transparent screen in his clothing store to play videos of models walking during the day. Passers-by would indeed take a second look because of this. However, he claimed that when he looked at it closely, he would find that the edges of the text were a bit blurry.
If you plan to use it to display price tags or detailed product information, you must optimize the screen in advance. The font should be bold, and the background color should be dark, so as to suppress the interference caused by transparency. Some manufacturers will launch high-brightness versions specifically for outdoor window scenes, but the price will also double. Whether the clarity of the transparent screen is sufficient depends on its placement and surrounding light conditions. It performs well in dark environments, but in bright environments it will test your adjustment skills.
Where are transparent screens suitable for installation?
Currently, the most popular application scenarios for transparent screens are showcases and exhibition halls. In the past, posters were posted behind the glass in the store, but now a transparent screen has been installed, which not only has the function of glass, but can also play dynamic advertisements. , transforming the entire floor-to-ceiling window into a transparent screen to display the internal structure of the drone. When passersby watch through the glass, they will see the picture and the real thing overlapping each other. This effect is very attractive.
For museums, the use of transparent screens is quite common. They will project cultural relic information onto the glass of the display cabinet. After doing so, when the audience is viewing the exhibits, they can see the relevant annotations without having to lower their heads to check their mobile phones again.
At present, there is a gap between practical application in home scenes. Some people have tried to install it on the living room partition. Normally, it plays a lighting role like transparent glass, and becomes a screen when watching TV. I have to say that this idea is wonderful, but the reality is not ideal. The current transparent screen for home use has low definition, making it blurry when watching high-definition movies, and the price is not affordable. A 55-inch transparent screen costs more than 10,000 yuan.
Some designers have ingeniously embedded transparent screens into kitchen islands to play recipe videos. Even if you occasionally cut fruit, you can see the picture constantly beating, giving people a futuristic experience. Transparent screens are suitable for situations where both "maintaining a sense of transparency" and "displaying information" is required, such as front desks, wine cabinets, convenience store freezer doors, etc. In these scenarios, it shows more unique advantages than traditional screens.
The transparent screen cannot be regarded as a universal substitute, it is just a tool that can create surprises in specific scenes. Before buying, you need to ask yourself three questions: whether the picture will be swallowed up by the background, what the lighting conditions are like at the installation location, and whether the audience needs to see the picture and the objects behind it at the same time. Once you understand these things, it's not too late to spend money.
