DEFINITIONS
For the purpose of this Special Provision, the following definitions apply:
Contrast Ratio: means the ratio of the luminosity of the brightest and the darkest color the system or device
is capable of producing.
Luminance: means a photometric measure of the density of luminous intensity in a given direction. It
describes the amount of light that passes through or is emitted from a particular area, and falls within a given
angle. The SI unit for luminance is candela per square metre (cd/m2).
LCD: means liquid crystal display.
NTSC: means the analog television system used in Canada and U.S. named for the National Television
System(s) Committee.
SXGA: means screen resolution of 1280 x 1024 pixels.
