What Do Color LCD Panels Really Look Like?
The quick answer is that they typically look like this: In summary, each display pixel on a typical color LCD panel is a thin vertical stripe capable of displaying only between 8 and 32 distinct shades of one of Red, Green, or Blue. These stripes are arranged in a regular matrix, roughly as shown above. Actually, I wasn’t aware that they look that way until last week, when a friend mentioned the R-G-B striping to me over lunch. The reason I wasn’t aware of it was that the gaps between pixels (the shadows of the drive circuits and wires) were so much more visible that I never noticed the tightly-abutted lines of color within each pixel. The black lines are significant in that they cannot have their color changed, yet they take space. Getting as close as possible to the right colors in the right places is what image display is all about. In general, the correct way to handle these strange display pixel placements and shading constraints is to accurately model them and to computationally
