Abstract
The DISTEC system is a new concept in changeable-message displays. It has complete obliteration and is unique in its low cost, low power consumption, extraordinary contrast, and ability to be back-lighted. It has unlimited variability. Its maintenance requirements are close to zero. The display is passive and is clearly visible under all lighting conditions from direct sunlight to complete darkness. Symbols appear to be continuous lines. Signs are any size, with no separation between adjacent modules.
