Talk:Anti-reflective screen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- I guess the article makes some confusion between "anti-reflective" and "anti-glare", but I'm not knowledgeable enough on the subject to be sure --Gennaro Prota 17:11, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Some Facts
Most of this article was a citation of some advertisement text published by the company of 'ScreenTek' (http://www.screentekinc.com/fujitsu-crystal-view-superfine-lcd-screens.shtml), who are producers of LCD displays.
It is simply not true that normal LCD displays cause "eye-fatigue". Eye problems, fatigue, or headache etc. are very often symptoms of bad ergonomics in the workplace, e. g. reflexions on the screen or directly blinding light e. g. from a window behind the screen, or many other factors.
If glare-type screens which seem to be hip at the moment are called anti-reflective, this sounds like a joke in the ears of an ergonomics expert.

[edit] Information disappearing
Anyone else notice that (I would say) fairly relevant information has disappeared from this article over revisions? Take for instance the information about being introduced into japaneese markets in the beginning of 2003. In any event, fixed a typo.
[edit] This page is mostly wrong
The page starts with a fundamental confusion between anti-glare and anti-reflection and goes downhill from there, made worse by marketing doublespeak. I'm a consultant with an expertise in AG/AR and related areas, and I'd like to fix the page, but I don't know quite how to get started. I've never contributed anything before to Wikipedia, although I've written more than three dozen articles for conventional technical print media. I'd like to write a page that clarifies the difference between AR and AG, as well as gives information about trends (e.g., how and why "glare" screens got started in the Japanese retail market, as the author above me indirectly references). But such a page wouldn't go under the subject of "anti-reflective screen", which in itself is an incorrect term (one can have an anti-reflection coating on a screen, but a screen itself cannot be anti-reflective). Anyone willing to give me some guidance?

- I might be able to help, I have some experience writing wiki articles.. see Calgary Science School and Maple Skate. I have a dell inspiron 6400 with "TrueLife". Let me know on My talk page if you'd like some help. Ard0 20:33, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
I agree that the content here as of this date is a bit slanted. I am certainly no expert, but I have a handful of laptops. The glare screen type (i.e., Dell's TrueLife) described as "unviewable" in high light conditions offers a compromise of sorts. It increases contrast and overall image quality in conditions where most people use laptops--coffee shops, offices, homes, etc., but it does not perform as well as older "matte" screens in high-light conditions such as park benches, open land, sunlit areas, etc. Also, the "TrueLife" screen, I have noticed, does well under fluorescent lighting but not as well under full-spectrum light.
[edit] This page is titled wrong
May I also add that its very confusing. There is: anti-reflective, glossy, matte, anti-glare, and many more terms. I'd like to help with the article, but the way it was written, the terms included and the way they are described, the redirects that are included.. it's a mess. Ard0 20:44, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
