Abstract: A display device includes an LCD panel comprising blue color filters, green color filters and red color filters, and a light source for providing light to the LCD panel. The light has a spectrum with first, second and third components. The first component has at least one peak wavelength in a first wavelength range from about 480.1 nm to about 510 nm.

The green color filters are adapted such that they do not transmit the first component of light or transmit a minimal amount of the first component of light so as to prevent a distortion or shift of a CIE coordinate of a filtered green light by the first component of light.

Abstract: Described herein is a system and method for detecting and compensating for an anomaly in three-dimensional object fabrication. A wall thickness computation component computes a wall thickness of a three-dimensional object to be fabricated. An edge map generation component generates an edge map for one or more portions of the three-dimensional object to be fabricated satisfying one or more wall thickness criteria. The wall thickness criteria includes, for example, a computed wall thickness less than an extrusion width of a fabrication apparatus, a computed wall thickness greater than an extrusion width and less than twice the extrusion width and/or a computed wall thickness not an integer multiple of the extrusion width. A tool path generation component generates a tool path based on the generated edge map.
