Reducing Optical Effects in a Display
First Claim
1. A method for reducing the appearance of optical effects in a display, comprising:
- providing a first surface and a second surface at least partially within an enclosure, wherein the first surface and the second surface are separated by a gap having a width; and
in response to a diminishment of the gap'"'"'s width, maintaining a minimum distance, at the spacer, between the first surface and the second surface.

Abstract
One embodiment may take the form of a system for reducing the appearance of optical effects in a display. The system may include an enclosure with a first surface and a second surface. Furthermore, the system may include spacers that may be deposited on the bottom face of the first surface and/or the top face of the second surface, where the first surface may be a touch panel and/or cover lens and the second surface may be a display module. The spacers may be deposited in one layer with an anti-reflection coating. The thickness of the coating may be less than the diameter of the spacers.

10-1. A system for modifying the appearance of a display, comprising:
-
a first surface and a second surface; an enclosure at least partially surrounding the first surface and the second surface; and a plurality of spacers located between the first surface and the second surface, wherein the plurality of spacers prevent the first surface from physically contacting the second surface at the location of each of the plurality of spacers.
