MIP Reflective Color Display
The Rider S800’s MIP (Memory In Pixel) technology is optimized for better outdoor viewing experience by utilizing the circuit board as the reflection layer, eliminating screen shadow and also reducing power consumption.Instead of wasting battery pursuing the highest brightness settings and brilliant color demonstration, the MIP display is engineered to adapt to even the most severe environments. Under changing environmental lighting (both mild and severe), the MIP display is capable of providing you with the most comfortable and optimal viewing experience without sacrificing its visibility.
Great Outdoor Legibility
Traditional TFT (Thin-Film-Transistor) LCD displays are typically limited to indoor use under optimal controlled lighting conditions, however when it comes to activities involving riding outdoors where there is a lot of different light interference, either the screen brightness becomes too low to read or the colors are dim or illegible. Furthermore, if the TFT LCD display prioritizes visibility, then power consumption will be quite high. An alternative is available though. MIP reflective color displays, on the other hand, are a better solution for outdoor electronic equipment. Its outstanding visual characteristics ensure that it is legible even under harsh lighting conditions or direct sunlight. The MIP display utilizes a combination of passive environmental light and sunlight as its primary light source to clearly reflect the details on the screen, making it readable. Therefore, the stronger the light is, the clearer the display becomes. This means that the backlight is only needed while riding indoors in a dark room or in other insufficiently lit areas. Additionally, its image presentation is relatively stable, similar to paper, making it more comfortable on the eyes.
Ultra-Low Power Consumption
The MIP display utilizes LTPS ( Low Temperature Poly Silicon ) technology to form memory circuits in each pixel. Each of these pixels is addressable, containing a 1-bit memory cell for storing information. Each pixel stores its current state and only refreshes when content is updated, which brings the benefit of almost 0 power consumption while the screen remains static. In comparison to traditional TFT displays, where every pixel on the screen needs to be refreshed before new content can be present on screen, the MIP display only requires the pixels with updated information to be refreshed in order to overwrite old content. Because of this, TFT displays have power consumptions more than 40 times higher, requiring more electricity than a MIP display. Utilizing this display, the Rider S800 saves power while riders pause their rides and reduce the overall power consumption by only displaying the updated digits while cycling, further helping to increase its total battery life up to an enormous 36 hours.
Optical Bonding Technology｜Reduce Unwanted Reflections
Another technology utilized in the Rider S800 to improve its visual acuity is Optical bonding, which is utilized to avoid parallax shadows and screen fogging when riding in damp conditions, which provides a better viewing experience even under inclimate conditions or severe environments. Without employing the optical bonding technology, the air layer between the optical and the panel causes reflection, which worsens visibility. If high humidity or changing temperatures are present inside and around the device, it will cause water vapor to gather and condense inside of the cooler inner-screen creating the appearance of fogging. To avoid the above situation, Bryton injects a clear solid optical adhesive with high optical stability. Under harsh temperatures or any type of changing environment, the display retains its refractive index, thereby eliminating the problem of changing refraction caused by light passing through different materials as well as the fogging situation caused by the high humidity and changing temperature.
