Definitions

• CH-PS No. ⁇ 3 391 and EP-PS No. 0 010 711 and No. 0 010 712 describe the production and use of certain metallized textiles as materials for shielding against electromagnetic radiation. These materials can be used both for shielding an object or a person from electromagnetic radiation from the environment and also for preventing the escape of electromagnetic radiation from an object.
• Glare the reflection of incident light and the "flickering" of the screens lead to health problems for the operating personnel, such as eye strain, headaches, etc.
• This special problem can be solved by opening black openings colored or painted textiles, of which several assortments are commercially available, are arranged between the screen or the optical display device and the viewer, or by applying special anti-reflection coatings to the screen.
• Electrostatic fields generated by the screens or other optical display devices lead to health problems of the operating personnel as described above under 1 and can occur in certain sensitive areas, e.g. also cause operational problems when handling electronic solid-state components.
• This problem can be solved by arranging grounded metallic fabrics or knitted fabrics between the screen or the other optical display device and the viewer.
• Such materials are commercially available.
• Electromagnetic radiation from the environment can enter the optical display device through the screen and disrupt or damage the information contained within the system.
• This problem can be solved by arranging woven or knitted fabrics made of metals or metallized polymers between the display device and the viewer. If such materials are suitable grounded, they can of course also solve the problem of static electricity. They are also commercially available.
• the screen can emit electromagnetic radiation into the environment, which can lead to disturbance or damage to surrounding facilities, health problems for operating personnel and impairment of safety . Accessibility of the information carried by the radiation from the system results in a distance from the system.
