ABSTRACT:
A liquid crystal display system utilizes an optical arrangement which is aligned so that ambient light from the direction of an obersver's view is channeled behind the liquid crystal display to provide back illumination therefor. An illuminator is arranged to provide supplementary illumination for the liquid crystal display as may be required. A photodetector determines when ambient light is inadequate for required display brightness and operates through appropriate control circuitry to turn the illuminator on or off as the case may be and to control the contrast of the liquid crystal display.
