@@mikescholz6429 You’re probably right, but I’m not certain. Would two LCDs stacked block all light due to the polarisation? What if you put the second LCD at right angles? I’m not sure how the display in this video works in the first place, considering he removed the polarising film from the front in the first place.
Polarization is weird. Take a polarizer and put another on it at an angle and it blocks all the light. Then you get a third polarizer and put it at the angle of the first and whelp the light's back.
@@Scrogan I’ve seen this done with like 6 or 8 128x64 pixel clear oleds that only light up white but the effect was still pretty sweet. Theres a video on here somewhere of this
I think adding a thin sheet of glass in front and a frosted sheet of glass or acrylic behind the LCD would really transform the displays looks and durability. A lightly frosted back glass would provide enough obscurity to make background details not make the screen unusable but still provide light to illuminate the LCD while also being somewhat transparent. Having it crystal clear looks awesome but I just wouldn’t be able to focus on anything on the screen personally
It's very unlikely that you wouldn't be able to focus. If your complaint was valid, then the Quest 3 wouldn't exist, and AR glasses would be impossible to use. I assume you and 194 people not only haven't ever used VR or AR, but haven't even thought about what VR or AR actually is.
@@awesomeferret i liked the comment because i *could* focus on the screen, but i think the suggestions are still a good idea. you don't have to agree 100% with every part of a comment to like!
Now layer it with a clear OLED panel LCD blocks light. OLED emits light. In theory, combining both would allow you to make certain elements more opaque while others remain fully transparent Imagine looking at a png but you can actually see the transparency
@@ImproveConditions What I meant is that transparent OLED panels have a flaw, and that is that they look like holograms and they can only add light to what you see. If you see a picture, everything black will just be see-through If you combine the OKED panel with an LCD panel, the LCD can block thevlight coming through it, allowing the user to see "perfect" images in the air. Let's say you have a picture in a webpage. You can make it so that the background of the webpage is completely see-through, the LCD reserves a rectangle over the area where the oicture is, effectively turning it black, then the OLED adds light and color data over that rectangle to have a perfect representation of that picture over a transparent background OLED could be used to add white text iver transparent background whereas LCD could be used to add black text over transparent background Of course the rendered image would need to have alpha data taken into account as it just wouldn't work with the same signal regular displays work with
Think about the words that you are using. True transparency can be completely emulated. I have no idea what you think would be accomplished by adding another hardware layer. Yeah, looking at a png where you can see the transparency that's not actually part of the image, but is inprecisely trying to be simulated with a hardware OLED layer? What am I missing here?
@ What about fully opaque black pixels? How do you achieve that with an OLED panel? OLED panels can only add light. There's no way to remove light. An LCD panel could block the line coming through those oixels to basically "disable" the transparency of the pixels, making them opaque and allowing for a simulation of opaque black pixels. That said, some light would still come through but you'd be able to fully recreate a picture with its actual opacity
Great build! I'd recommend getting some optical adhesive and binding the panel to a glass sheet to give it back some strength. DIY Perks talks about that stuff in his latest video, and it's awesome for rebuilding displays!
@@qJoao It would still be new. You can't buy them transparent. @vartroc was just saying that you can buy the screen without the plastic parts, and it would have made the circuit boards easier to work with.
What I think you can do for the light source is making it like how high way signs are, take lights and line them up at the bottom so they shine on the screen from the bottom or you can also put them on the side as well, one strip on both sides pointing towards the screen
a suggestion for the transparent display if u revisit it again or improve on. Use a Acrylic sheet 3 to 5mm thick, stick the display on that using clear glue probably glue used to specifically laminate the display sheets together, have the edges of the acrylic lit up by led strips so u have a sort of a back light of the display and it still remains transparent
Were you in my house? I literally did EVERYTHING you did in this video. Only i used the LCD to do a "snowblind mod". I attach the see through LCD on one side of the tempered glass on the side of my gaming pc. All the RGB components on the pc backlight the LCD allowing you to see the image, but also the pc inside. But, i followed guides on here to get that anti glare off. Yeah...they just peal right off, and some even say wait like 6 hours. Maybe i scavenged a different monitor, but mine took around 24 and i had to use an actual towel because it has to stay saturated the whole time and the p towels would dry out and id have to start over. I too had to use alcohol and a tool. I chose the to use a feeler guage from my 3d printer box. .01mm strip of aluminum. Useful for getting screens off. I didnt go corner to corner. I played "Snake" from NOKIA circa 1997 cell phone. Start at the top and cirle round and round until you reach the middle and eat yourself. I got all the way to the middle q little at a time. i was using a hand to hold and pull while shimming, but of course something didnt go right and i heard it. Sounds like ice road up north when semis drive over it. So, mine actualy has a hairline with splits off on it, but if im being honest, as long as it doesnt grow and ruin the rest of the panel than i pawn it off as..."I meant to do that. You have to be somethin like a bad ass to do that on purpose. It will give the build chatacter. Like its battlehardned. It with the theme too. It was the 5th LCD. The 1st 4 were free or really cheap, i used old laptop screens but i dont know if i did something wrong disassembling or laptop lcd wont work. I dont know. Thr ones i already had worked fine before and i already had them broke down just their bezzle and backlight
i serously dont know how you dont have over a mil in subs. your videos are so entertaining and actuly intersting and not as random as others. good work
This is ao flippin cool! I wonder, what if you put some kind of white reflective panel behind it and lit it with LEDs? Such a thing has necer been done before!
Transparent touch screen next (CSI)? Larger scale? Some comments already said use glass panels to give it more strength. Now what if that was done and put on a laptop but not a folding lid but the screen folded all the way flat and then slid inside the bottom of the laptop. Then a folding cover on out side to protect the keyboard and the folding out lip have a mouse pad in case you wanted a to use a mouse instead of track pad. ( i hate track pads ) With the leds around the edge if that would work.
I want to do this with a panel roughly the same size as one of my bedroom window panes and frame it to look like one of my windows and use it for a weather forcast, calendar, to dos, and a rolling news feed and be able to see my back yard through it.
This video is awesome! I also cant wait for the video about polarized glasses because ive noticed this affect time and time again and i had no idea why
Why it works if the pilarizer filter is removed? If I remove polarizer I cant see picture or it is barely visible. And with poralizer it is too dark. I was made transparent laptop many years ago but my eyes goes mad from it. Still focusing on things behind so i didnt use it. :D
I don't understand either. Im pretty familiar with how LCDs work. Removing the front polarizer gives you an all white image, but you see the image with sunglasses. So this should not work at all
@@dennisba85 I tried it on old android mobile phone and it was little visible without polarizer but only if not original backlight was used but ambient light. Maybe he is using polarized light source. IDK :D
Half the visual this man is gonna make are from Twenty Øne Piløts fans seeing the Clancy album in the thumbnail (i'm watching this video for that reason too)
try an acrylic panel on the back for structure and make it atleast usable but still letting in enough light and some led strips on the side for a backlight
That’s really cool, would it work sandwiched between glass? If you used optically transparent adhesive like they do in cell phones, you would only need to to support the bottom
Could it work better if it were installed in a base that has inset lighting, so instead of back-lighting, it could have a bright light source from the edges? I mean, would it enhance the contrast, or would it start to look like doodie?
These always look so damn cool but then I think about how I've never had a computer setup where I'd want to be able to see what's behind my monitor. It's all wires, dust, and a wall. Even if you do a setup in an open area, the potential reasons to be able to see through your monitor seem very limited, especially when the screen isn't very vivid anymore.
2:30 - Would using a heat gun damage the LCD? I'm assuming yes, but if you modulated the heat a bit, maybe it would've softened the adhesive enough without damaging it?
You could have put a layer of glass on both sides of it to protect it lol - also add a light in the bottom of the monitor that points directly at the wall behind it to improve clarity, :D
You made it un usable lol well done 👍 I was just thinking how great the gameboy no backlight screen used to be and how much fun that was. And how if there was also a way to put background light and whatever’s behind the monitor directly into the viewable area. Surely my video/audio/graphics work is gonna be way easier now 🙏
🤓☝ Erm, actually you need this thing called a "Lens" and another thing called a "Bulb" with a screen without a backlight. When the bulb is on, the picture gets projected through the lens and onto your projector screen. But it's upside down so you need to flip the screen upside down to fix that. Hope this helps!

someone tell this man that you can buy only the panel and a controller from e-bay. No need to take a whole portable monitor apart.
Buying ready-made loses its appeal. The fun is taking things apart to put something new together, like Lego.
