The flip-disc display (or flip-dot display) is an electromechanical dot matrix display technology used for large outdoor signs, normally those that will be exposed to direct sunlight. Flip-disc technology has been used for external destination signs on buses and trains across North America , Europe and Australia , as well as for variable ...
A display device is an output device for presentation of information in visual [1] or tactile form (the latter used for example in tactile electronic displays for blind people). [2] When the input information that is supplied has an electrical signal the display is called an electronic display .
A text display is an electronic alphanumeric display device that is mainly or only capable of showing text, or extremely limited graphic characters.This includes electromechanical split-flap displays, vane displays, and flip-disc displays; all-electronic liquid-crystal displays, incandescent eggcrate displays, LED displays, and vacuum fluorescent displays; and even electric nixie tubes.
Flip-dot displays and LED display boards may be used instead of split-flap displays in most applications. Their output can be changed by reprogramming instead of replacement of physical parts but they suffer from lower readability. They also can refresh more quickly, as a split-flap display often must cycle through many states.
