What you hold in your hand is one of the most comprehensive treatises on displays covering a tremendous breadth starting from the very fundamentals to the latest technologies. It takes you on an exciting, exploratory, and adventurous tour through the entire space spanned by the science and technology behind all kinds of different displays. Aditi Majumder, Department of Computer Science, University of California, Irvine, USA The writing of this book is timely as it brings together in one broad introduction key diverse, yet fundamental, principles and applications of light sources, optics, vision, and image processing. The illustrations in this book will likely bring many of the subjects to life for both novices and experts and the outlook on the future inspires us all. Jannick Rolland, Institute of Optics, University of Rochester, USA This book provides one of the most comprehensive reviews of display technologies available. The background information, overview of fundamentals and breadth and depth covered by the book is quite remarkable. It should be required reading for all those in the display industry and would be a fantastic resource for researchers developing the next generation of interactive displays. Mark Billinghurst, Human Interface Technology Laboratory New Zealand, Christchurch An outstanding piece of work. From A to Z and beyond. Fun to read. I can recommend this must-have book for both newcomers and experts. Kiyoshi Kiyokawa, Cybermedia Center, Osaka University, Japan This is a very accessible and useful book. It covers a very broad range of display-related topics and makes a fine balance between breadth and depth. I highly recommend it to anyone who wishes to learn about display technologies. Hong Hua, College of Optical Sciences, University of Arizona, USA This is the first book that provides comprehensive tutorials for all kinds of displays, including the state-of-art displays as visual interface.
