The main electronic display technology developed by BrightSide was based on IMLED-LCD which consisted of a LCD with an array of individually modulated LED semiconductors as the backlights, instead of cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFL) that diffuse light in a layer of plastic. Each LED has 256 brightness steps, where step 0 switches the LED off and step 255 switches it to maximum luminance.
The primary electronic display technology created by BrightSide was based on IMLED-LCD, which featured an LCD paired with a matrix of individually modulated LED semiconductors as the backlighting, rather than cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFL) that scatter light in a layer of plastic. Each LED has 256 distinct brightness levels, ranging from complete darkness to maximum luminance.
