JDSU sun protection

JDSU makes a coating for LCD screens that prevents heat damage to devices used in direct sunlight or heat. Here the company demonstrates the product, called IR Blocker 70.

The heat lamp is set up very close to a laptop whose screen is half covered in the protective layer, with the other half left unprotected. The black mark on the right side is the effect of the lamp burning the LCD screen. It can be used in outdoor displays, GPS systems, ruggedized PCs, and commercial kiosks.
