Measures a video display's maximum usable viewing range from the center of the screen, with 180° being the theoretical maximum. Most often, the horizontal (side to side) viewing angle is listed, but sometimes both horizontal and vertical viewing angles are provided. For most home theaters, horizontal viewing angle is more critical.

Viewing Angle is the total cone angle in degrees encompassing the central, high luminous intensity portion of the LED beam from the on-axis peak to the off-axis point where the LED intensity is 50% of the on-axis intensity. This off-axis point is known as theta one-half (? 1/2). Two times ? 1/2 is the LEDsâ€(tm) full viewing angle; however, light is visible beyond the ? 1/2 point.

a conceptual cone perpendicular to the LCD where the display can still be seen clearly.

The angle from which a person will be able to view the screen where the brightness is at least half as strong as when viewed directly from the front. LP Morgan screens have a viewing angle of 180° (the maximum angle possible).

A screenâ€(tm)s viewing range indicates the maximum angle that an image can be viewed at from an off-center point.

The range within which a watchable image is retained. Stray outside the viewing angle and the picture begins to fade

The viewing angle is directly connected to the luminance factor. The higher the luminance factor the more limited is the viewing angle. The viewing angle is determined by where from the centerline (0 degree) the luminance factor has decreased by half.

A cone perpendicular to the LCD in which the contrast ratio exceeds 10.

Ttypically defined as the included angle which encompasses 50% of maximum intensity.

Maximum angle at which a viewer can clearly see an image projected on a screen.

the angle that the radar uses to sample a given storm. Certain features of a storm may be invisible to a certain radar (they may be aligned along a radial) but be clearly visible by a second radar. In addition, the viewing angle of the radar is important in velocity interpretation. A wind blowing perpendicular to a radial results in zero radial velocity.

The farthest angle from which you can still see the images on a monitor's screen clearly.

For 3M Light Control Film, the full angle through which the film will transmit light. This value is centered about the louver angle of the film.

The area that will provide optimum viewing of a display. The angle is determined by the horizontal and vertical points at which the measured light intensity is 50 percent of that measured directly in front of the display. Expressed another way, the maximum viewing angle is defined by the vertical and horizontal points where the information displayed can no longer be interpreted by the viewer. (This does not mean that the LED cannot be seen outside the viewing angle. Viewing angle is an industry-accepted term and used by the LED manufacturers themselves.)

The maximum angle from which a certain contrast ratio or above can be measured Page Top

A calculated angle of refraction inherent on a lenticular lens design that determines how fast or slow it is viewed. back

The angle from a specified viewing position to the center of the screen. It is usually measured on the horizontal or on the vertical axis. Specified in this guide as optimum screen brightness from screen center to either side.

A cone perpendicular to the LCD in which minimum contrast can be seen.

(LCD Only) A measurement of the range of angles at which minimum acceptable viewing parameters (5:1 contrast ratio, good brightness and front-of-screen performance) is maintained. Measured in horizontal viewing angle (left/right) and vertical viewing angle (up/down).

The angle at which a person is able to stand in regard to an image and still be able to see the entire image without distortion.

The angle in which you can still clearly see a LCD monitor. Going past the viewing angle results in a inferior image even though the LCD is fully operational.

In display technology parlance, viewing angle is the maximum angle at which a display can be viewed with acceptable . The image may seem garbled, poorly saturated, of poor contrast, blurry or too faint outside the stated viewing angle, the exact mode of "failure" being dependent on the display type in question. For example, some projection screens reflect more light perpendicular to the screen and less light to the sides, making the screen appear much darker (and sometimes colors distorted) if the viewer is not in front of the screen.
