===Consumer features=== :'''Glossy screen''' {{Main|Glossy display}} Some displays, especially newer flat-panel monitors, replace the traditional anti-glare matte finish with a glossy one. This increases [[color saturation]] and sharpness but reflections from lights and windows are more visible. Anti-reflective coatings are sometimes applied to help reduce reflections, although this only partly mitigates the problem. :'''Curved designs''' {{Main|Curved screen}} Most often using nominally [[flat-panel display]] technology such as LCD or OLED, a concave rather than convex curve is imparted, reducing geometric distortion, especially in extremely large and wide seamless desktop monitors intended for close viewing range. :'''3D''' {{Main|Stereo display}} {{See also|Active shutter 3D system|Polarized 3D system|Autostereoscopy}} Newer monitors are able to [[Stereoscopy|display a different image for each eye]], often with the help of special glasses and polarizers, giving the perception of depth. An autostereoscopic screen can generate 3D images without headgear.
