A Mind for Detail
Here are a couple things you should keep in mind while browsing our displays:
- CRT:
Short for “cathode ray tube,” the technology that’s used to display images.
- LCD:
Short for “liquid crystal display,” the technology behind our super-thin, light, power-conscious monitors.
- LCD with TV Tuner:
LCD displays with built-in TV tuners that provide maximum viewing flexibility. These models are equipped with an RGB analog input and can interface with virtually any digital source--including DVDs, digital photos, and videos.
- Maximum Resolution:
The maximum number of pixels displayed on a monitor, written as (number of horizontal pixels) x (number of vertical pixels). Envision monitors offer a minimum of 1024x768.
- Refresh Rate:
The maximum number of frames displayed in a second, expressed in Hertz. Envision monitors are designed with refresh rates that decrease flickering and reduce eye strain.
- Contrast Ratio:
The ratio between the brightest & darkest image a monitor can display. Higher contrast ratio is better because it means black appears more black on the screen instead of appearing grey.
- Response Time:
The time it takes for an LCD pixel to turn on & off. It is normally measured in milliseconds (ms). The lower the response time, the better the monitor's ability to display moving images or video.
