Emissive display system
First Claim
1. An emissive display system, comprising:
- an electro-optic device comprising;
a first substantially transparent substrate having first and second surfaces disposed on opposite sides thereof, wherein an electrically conductive layer is positioned directly on the first surface of the first substrate and in electrical contact with a conductive material positioned on an edge of the first substrate;
a second substantially transparent substrate having third and fourth surfaces disposed on opposite sides thereof, wherein at least one of the third and fourth surfaces comprises a second electrically conductive layer;
a primary seal disposed between the first and second substrates, wherein the seal and the first and second substrates define a cavity therebetween;
an electro-optic medium disposed in the cavity, the electro-optic medium being variably transmissive such that the electro-optic device is operable between substantially clear and darkened states; and
a substantially transparent light emitting display disposed adjacent to the electro-optic device, wherein the electro-optic device is converted to the darkened state when the light emitting display is emitting light.

Abstract
An emissive display system includes an electro-optic device having a first substantially transparent substrate including first and second surfaces disposed on opposite sides thereof. At least one of the first and second surfaces includes a first electrically conductive layer. A second substantially transparent substrate includes third and fourth surfaces disposed on opposite sides thereof. At least one of the third and fourth surfaces includes a second electrically conductive layer. A primary seal disposed between the first and second substrates. The seal and the first and second substrates define a cavity therebetween. An electro-optic medium is disposed in the cavity and is variably transmissive such that the electro-optic device is operable between substantially clear and darkened states. A substantially transparent light emitting display is disposed adjacent to the electro-optic device, which is converted to the darkened state when the light emitting display is emitting light.

9. An emissive display system, comprising:
-
an electro-optic device comprising; a first substantially transparent substrate having first and second surfaces, wherein a first electrically conductive layer is disposed on the second surface of the first substrate and a third electrically conductive layer is positioned directly on the first surface of the first substrate to define a dual coated substrate; an electrically conductive material positioned on an outboard edge of the first substrate; a second substantially transparent substrate spaced apart from the first substrate, the second substrate having third and fourth surfaces, wherein at least one of the third and fourth surfaces comprises a second electrically conductive layer; a primary seal disposed around perimeter portions of the first and second substrates, wherein the seal and the first and second substrates define cavity therebetween; an electro-optic medium disposed in the cavity, the electro-optic medium being variably transmissive such that the electro-optic device is operable between substantially clear and darkened states; and a substantially transparent light emitting display operably coupled to the electro-optic device, wherein the light emitting display is configured to emit light in an ON condition, and further wherein the electro-optic device is in the darkened state when the light emitting display is emitting light. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. An emissive display system, comprising:
-
an electro-optic device comprising; a first substantially transparent substrate having first and second surfaces, wherein an electrically conductive layer is positioned directly on the first surface; a second substantially transparent substrate spaced apart from the first substrate to define a cavity therebetween, the second substrate having third and fourth surfaces, wherein at least one of the third and fourth surfaces includes a second electrically conductive layer; a conductive material electrically connecting the electrically conductive layer and an electrical clip; an electrochromic medium disposed in the cavity, the electrochromic medium being variably transmissive such that the electro-optic device is operable between substantially clear and substantially darkened states; and a light emitting display operably coupled to the electro-optic device, wherein the light emitting display is configured to emit light in an ON condition, and further wherein the electro-optic device is in the darkened state when the light emitting display is in the ON condition. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19)
