Double Sided LCD Screen From LG Display

LG is showing off thier new double sided LCD display at this years IMID 2008 conference held in Goyang City, Korea. The displays are 15″ and have a 14:1 contrast ratio. From a technical standpoint this is very impressive, these are not simply two screens attached to each other, but rather the same screen displaying an image on its front and back. Will the “two screens, one display” become a sensation or remain an oddity shown off at various industry shows? Only time and more importantly manufacturing costs will tell.

Provided LG can reign in the price of these displays there are countless scenarios where a double sided display would come on handy. From business presentations, to retail the applications would be endless, any one up for a game of Battleship?
