Digital Micro Shutter
Digital MEMS shutters replace liquid crystals to deliver low power, high speed light modulation.
該類元件將能為平面顯示器節省耗電，並提升亮度與彩度。
上述的MEMS新穎應用來自一家名為Pixtronix的廠商；該公司的顯示器結合了低功耗(號稱比一般液晶螢幕低75%)、超廣色域(ultra-wide color gamut，號稱是NTSC的105%)，採用了一種MEMS遮光器(shutter)來測量LED背光的光線。
該MEMS 遮光器整合在平面顯示器的內部，能使用與傳統LCD顯示器相同的製程；該遮光器層與LED背光基板組合在一起，無需使用偏光板或是彩色濾光片。 Pixtronix宣稱，由於其數位MEMS遮光器能讓60%~80%的LED光線通過，但一般的LCD平面顯示器僅有6%~8%，因此能提供高10倍的亮度。
