  • Transparent display with eye protection
    Patent number: 10955664
    Abstract: A transparent display provides eye protection from lasers and other high intensity light sources. The transparent display allows users to view objects clearly through the display while also presenting text, graphics or video on the display surface. Simultaneously, the display assembly comprises a component that provides eye protection against high power radiation sources. The transparent display with eye protection provides both protection from high power light sources and an additional cockpit display surface for presentation of information including graphical images, symbology, video, text, and other data.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 24, 2016
    Date of Patent: March 23, 2021
    Assignee: L3 TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

  • Backlight display using photoluminescent material tuned to improve NVIS compatibility
    Patent number: 9581311
    Abstract: An NVIS-compatible backlight assembly for an LCD display comprising a short-wavelength (blue) light source positioned in a first layer and a photoluminescent layer positioned adjacent the first layer for transforming blue monochrome emission from the blue light source into tri-color light for use as a full-color light source, while minimizing radiance in NVIS-sensitive regions.
