On August 24, Nippon Chemical Coatings and Aphrodite held the first seminar of the WEB seminar series titled "Trends in Cutting-Edge Display Measurement Technology and Development of Anti-Glare Coatings." This seminar, consisting of a total of three sessions, aims to explain the current state of display development and measurement methods for quality evaluation. The first session introduced methods for quantifying glare in displays. Approximately 70 participants, including material manufacturers, converters, and home appliance manufacturers, attended the event. In the first part, Shuichi Shima, president of Aphrodite, which specializes in the sale and technical support of display measurement equipment, took the stage. He discussed the principles behind "glare" in displays, evaluation methods, and the effectiveness of these evaluations. He prefaced the causes of glare by stating, "It occurs due to pixels of different brightness, resulting in visual differences," and explained the mechanism by saying, "As resolution increases, the pitch between RGB pixels has become finer, causing adjacent pixels (colors) to be picked up." In December 2019, the JIS standard for "Measuring the Degree of Glare in Displays" was established. He introduced the processes and evaluation methods for measuring glare. The second session will be held on October 20, focusing on the theme "Measurement Methods for Resolution and Sharpness (White Blurriness) of Latest Displays."
