this tv would not use a tube, and would not emit light. it may use a sort of dye or ink that could be arranged somehow? so that you can see the tv at night, there could be small lights around the tv pointed at it. this would keep you from staring at a flashlight (tv) and wil not hurt your eyes

Non emissive screens, like LCD, have been around for a while now. |

lcd emits light...i wanted to point lights at the screen...preferably non reflective |

But the real world has light, the tv has light, it wouldn't
look as good if it was non light emiting. |

actually LCD glass absorbs light. You can get LCD's as transmissive or reflective as an OEM. Most of the time transmissives are used so they can be backlighted. The reflectives require front lighting as sergeant dukie suggest (they are a transmissive version with a mirror in the back, but usually the image quality is not that good. |

If the LCD was neither transmissive nor reflective, it would be a total absorber and you wouldn't see it. Useful in the lab, hard to realize in the lab, but still very useful at times for optics work which is why we spend lots of money on them. |
