  2. Screen burn-in - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_burn-in

    Screen burn-in, image burn-in, ghost image, or shadow image, is a permanent discoloration of areas on an electronic visual display such as a cathode-ray tube (CRT) in an older computer monitor or television set. It is caused by cumulative non-uniform use of the screen.

  3. Burn-in - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burn-in

    Burn-in is the process by which components of a system are exercised before being placed in service (and often, before the system being completely assembled from those components). This testing process will force certain failures to occur under supervised conditions so an understanding of load capacity of the product can be established.

  4. Cathode-ray tube - Wikipedia

    The shadow mask is installed to the screen using metal pieces [348] or a rail or frame [349] [350] [351] that is fused to the funnel or the screen glass respectively, [256] holding the shadow mask in tension to minimize warping (if the mask is flat, used in flat-screen CRT computer monitors) and allowing for higher image brightness and contrast.

  5. Image persistence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_persistence

    Unlike screen burn-in, the effects are usually temporary and often not visible without close inspection. Plasma displays experiencing severe image persistence can result in screen burn-in instead. Image persistence can occur as easily as having something remain unchanged on the screen in the same location for a duration of even 10 minutes, such ...

  6. Plasma display - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_display

    Plasma displays also exhibit another image retention issue which is sometimes confused with screen burn-in damage. In this mode, when a group of pixels are run at high brightness (when displaying white, for example) for an extended period, a charge build-up in the pixel structure occurs and a ghost image can be seen. However, unlike burn-in ...

  7. Ventilation (firefighting) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventilation_(firefighting)

    Ventilation is a part of structural firefighting tactics, and involves the expulsion of heat and smoke from a burning building, permitting the firefighters to more easily and safely find trapped individuals and attack the fire. It is frequently performed from the outside of a burning building while the fire is being extinguished on the inside.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Screen_burn-in

    Are any other types of display (eg TFT/LCD) susceptible to burning, or are they immune? If they also suffer burn-in, is the mechanism of failure different in any way? --131.111.8.103 19:40, 14 May 2006 (UTC) Could the burning problem be reduced or prevented by lowering the screen contrast? TurboForce 00:24, 8 July 2006 (UTC) Good point.
