Since every sub-pixel on a LCD monitor is controlled individually by a wire, how come we don’t see these wires? and how do they manage to connect thousands of wires to each sub-pixel in such a perfect way?
In: Technology
Because we have gotten very very good at creating very tiny circuits on circuit boards. The same technology and techniques that have gone into miniaturizing everything else in the electronics world. It’s the same reason you have a phone in your pocket today that is more powerful than supercomputers from the 90s. The same reason a USB charger has more computing power than Apollo 11. We’ve just gotten very good at making microscopic electronics
The wire carries a very small amount of electricity, so it can be very, very thin. With modern processes, wires thinner than a human hair are used, and the bright glow of the pixel makes the small dark line very hard to see. You can see this with magnification, but then you also see the individual pixels so nobody really uses a display that way.
