Genoa Color announces US patent for multi-primary color LCD

Genoa was issued U.S. patent number 7,268,757 for the "Device, system and method for color display" for an LCD display using multi primary colors.

"This patent strengthens our intellectual property in the LCD display space," says Genoa CEO Ilan Ben-David.

"With more than 80 patents pending worldwide, we expect to receive other key grants protecting our multi-primary color innovations in the near future."

Genoa's Multi Primary technology uses more than three primary colors in the display. In addition to the traditional RGB, other colors are added - such as yellow and cyan. Multi primary is the only technology which allows LCD displays to fully cover cinema gamut.
