<BLOCKQUOTE>I am a casual reader of this mailing list. This thread
caught my eye since this is what I do for LLNL. <BR><BR>There is a
company, National Display Systems, that makes these tiled displays that are
ready out of the box. They are intended to be used as you describe the
panels that you are putting together. They end up with about a 1"
mullion and are VESA compliant for mounts. Of course with this
solution you do not have the fun of ripping the plastic off your monitors
but it makes for a nice display.<BR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>I've seen National
Display before. They are really popular with the NYSE and other stock
displays. There are plenty of commercial vendors for these LCD tiled displays,
but I think the primary motivating factor for ripping plastic or buying
unpackaged displays is cost. I think EVL gets the mullion down to considerably
< 1" too. Otherwise, there are plenty of commercial vendors who do this
(just not cheaply).<BR><BR>
<BLOCKQUOTE>Has anybody seen a real seamless system (zero mullion)?
For the applications that I am running I can not tolerate the loss of pixel
data required to do edge blending. That is what I mean by
real.<BR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>Well, the Barco rear-projection/Atlas displays have
a 0.3mm mullion (1/3 of a pixel). Thats about as close to zero as I've seen.
It doesn't fix the color calibration problem though....(never
will).<BR><BR>-john</BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
