Bill takes apart an LCD monitor and shows how it works. He explains how it uses liquid crystals, thin film transistors and polarizers to display information. This video will be part of a companion volume. You can get preliminary details at http://www.engineerguy.com/book

  • can i download your video and share it with our college ?

  • @sultanzsultanz It is released under a Creative Common license ... so the answer is yes.

  • Where are you Bill? Surely you haven't run out of things to talk about?

  • @StRoRo I have not run out of things to talk about! We are very busy preparing series #4. Eight videos with a companion volume. Videos on the ccd in a digital camera, how smartphone accelerometers work, etc. I am editing chapter on batteries right now at my desk.

  • I've traced the problem of my screen going dark to my backlight, but I was surprised I could still see the colored image, albeit not very well, if I shined a light on the screen. I couldn't figure out what that was about, but now I know... This knowledge... It's too dangerous to be in my head. I must wipe my memory but send myself an envelope of little items to jog my memory on everything else I knew... And I'm also wiping lemonparty.

  • I know what some of those words mean...

  • I just found about these videos. My new addiction!

  • you should definitely have your own show on Discovery :) 

  • its great to be watching this with the exact same monitor he uses to demonstrate :)

  • So can the lcd monitor be damaged from pointing at it or touching it without any intention from deliberately damaging it?

  • Oh my god! This makes so much sense!
