Abstract :
Spiralling costs and supplier uncertainty have raised concerns about the future viability of direct view AMLCDs for avionics applications. Efforts at Kaiser Electronics have established the feasibility of rear projection display technology, based on COTS components, as an attractive alternative, offering superior performance, scalability and cross-platform adaptability, lower cost and multisource availability of key components
