ABSTRACT:
A display includes a display screen for displaying information. A liquid crystal display (LCD) panel adjoins the display screen. The LCD panel is controlled to selectively define a viewing angle within which a selectable portion of the display screen is viewable through the LCD panel. The LCD panel includes a plurality of energizable segments which, when energized, are transparent to allow the selectable portion of the display screen to be viewed. Each of the plurality of energizable segments is selectively energizable to selectively enable corresponding portions of the display screen to be viewed.
