Abstract
A method of applying optical film to a large format display panel is described. The method utilizes optical film () that has been pre-cut to cover a given area of the panel, such that the film does not need to be cut or trimmed after it is adhered to the panel. The method is suitable for use with large format display panels such as those having viewable areas of 208 cm (82 inches) diagonal.
