this is a fascinating article as it goes into heavy detail about both techs and how they work.

"That’s why the transparent OLED TV LG demonstrated at CES 2024 included a “contrast layer”—basically, a black cloth—that unrolls and covers the back of the display on demand."

oh I love CD. i do remember that video! yeah I have serious doubts about the TVs
