ESR

ESR or Enhanced Spectral Reflection film is our most popular enhancement.

In a normal LCD display as much as half of the back light luminosity is lost to internal reflection costing  readability and power consumption. By recycling and redirecting the lost light Blue Cube's film enhancement can offer an increase in back light brightness from 60% to 90% depending on the back light style.

This passive approach to brightness enhancement causes neither heat nor back light life issues while allowing further enhancement by combining it with our optical bonding process.

Privacy Films

Privacy films work to keep confidential and private information private by reducing viewing angles and darkening the display angles +/- 30 degrees. A person directly in front of the display will have an unobstructed view of displayed information. But from either side a passersby or casual observer only see a dark blank screen. It also serves a secondary purpose of minor abrasion protection.

DBEF

DBEF, or Dual Brightness Enhancement Film is a thin matte surface reflective polarizer with tiny 90 degree triangular structures on the film surface. It is used primarily to boost display brightness through light management. It does this by recycling most of the light normally absorbed by the rear polarizer directing it upward through the display.

AR / AG

AR (Anti-reflective) and AG (Anti-glare) films can help improve display performance by decreasing surface reflection usually less than 1%. This helps to increase ambient light readability and viewing angles. Regular displays reflect a very small amount of light back into your eye possibly skewing vision. AR/AG coatings helps to prevent this anomaly.
