Excerpt from NanoCast…

Stone: So now can you explain the difference between LED and LCD?

Gary: Absolutely. LCD is a transmissive technology, a technology that opens and closes a little window and lets a large amount of light go through a color filter, and subsequently shows you a pixel element on the display. The LED approach is much more elegant. It’s a single pixel that’s RGB, red, green, blue, and it lights up and emits the light that you wanna see for that particular pixel as part of an element of the entire picture.

Stone: So now NanoLumens, some of their secret sauce is kind of having a flexible display? Does that add another element to this?

Gary: It does. NanoLumens provides solutions that are flexible. More importantly we provide custom solutions. Every display we build is hand-designed and crafted to the particular needs of the application of the customer. So whether the venue that they have is retail, commercial, an airport environment, or shopping mall, they’ll know that the display they get fits exactly in the space they’re looking for and gives them an elegant look when it’s completed.
