Abstract

RSD technology is a comparatively new technology. What RSD technology is and how it differs from other display technologies is discussed below. This paper also discusses how to measure contrast of a RSD in a manner that allows comparison of contrast to other types of displays. At first sight, it seems to be a straightforward task involving a simple measurement. However the choice of contrast test procedure and equipment setup determines this number. A contrast ratio test is suggested as a method that allows for fair comparisons between different types of displays.
