Get this!! Apparently, when the 2 MV's arrived at the supplier, the entire eng team was OOT on another big project. So, the project management group went ahead and tried to get the project started. They tried "many many many times" to get the units powered on. The said the LCD's were "rainbowed". They were not working for them so they were about to give up. For over a week, many disparaging messages went back and forth and the project seemed doomed.
Then, the eng team got back. They took over. Powered everything up fine. Pulled the LCD's. Tested the only working LCD unit and the specs were known. TN type. The second LCD unit was toast. It faded into oblivion. Which was expected. It was fading before shipment. What an unbelievable turn of events!
So, sample money has been dropped 🤑, the LCD spec has been created, drawings made, 2 sample types are being build. They will drop the sample LCD's into the 2 working MV's electronics for testing. Then, send some videos. If everything is acceptable, samples will be shipped for further testing.
Stay tuned for another exciting episode of... Are those Microvision LCD's done yet?
Nice going Richard. Thank you for the update on one unit surviving (partially), thus speeding the project moreso. My anticipation is growing!
