Abstract

A structure is disclosed wherein several liquid crystal displays are mounted in close proximity to one another without limiting viewing angle. The displays are mounted in a housing with elastomeric connectors and then covered with a mask, which extends over the gap between the displays. The mask is then covered by a glass member, which is held in place on the mask and the liquid crystal display assembly to compress the elastomeric connectors and insure good electrical contact. The resulting display resembles a single large liquid crystal with no degradation of viewing angle.
