WHAT DOES FLAT SCREEN MEAN IN ENGLISH?

flat screen

Flat panel display

Flat panel displays encompass a growing number of electronic visual display technologies. They are far lighter and thinner than traditional television sets and video displays that use cathode ray tubes, and are usually less than 10 centimetres thick. Flat panel displays can be divided into two general display technology categories: volatile and static. In many applications, specifically modern portable devices such as laptops, mobile phones, digital cameras, camcorders, point-and-shoot cameras, and pocket video cameras, any display disadvantages are made up for by portability advantages. Most of the modern flat-panel displays use LCD technologies. Most LCD screens are back-lit to make them easier to read in bright environments. They are thin and light. They provide better linearity and higher resolution. A multifunctional monitor is a flat panel display that has additional video inputs and is designed to be used with a variety of external video sources. In many instances, an MFM also includes a TV tuner, making it similar to a LCD TV that offers computer connectivity.

Definition of flat screen in the English dictionary

The definition of flat screen in the dictionary is a slimline screen for a television set or computer monitor without a cathode-ray tube.
