Anders Electronics has further expanded its display design and engineering capabilities by launching a new service that allows the company to cost-effectively add a variety of colour options to standard monochrome displays. Believed to be the industry’s first service of its type, Anders’ M2C (mono-to-colour) custom offering is ideal for customers who want to employ colour to optimise the user machine relationship (UMR), but for whom migration to TFT LCDs is not a commercially viable option. The service is fully compatible with a wide range of display technologies and is suitable for even low-volume production.

The Anders in-house engineering team has brought together a number of technologies and techniques in order to deliver the new M2C service. These include colour polarisers and LED backlighting options that provide colours such as amber, blue, paper white and ‘ultra paper white’. In addition the team is using silk screen printing techniques to colour individual segments in line with application-specific display requirements.

Commenting on the launch of the new service, Anders Electronics’ CEO Rob Anders states: “At Anders we remain committed to technologies and services that allow displays to enhance the user machine relationship or UMR and that optimise the user experience. This new M2C service is a perfect example of that commitment, providing customers with creative solutions for adding colour to traditionally monochrome displays without the costs that are associated with migrating to a TFT alternative.”
