Segmented liquid-crystal display

A segmented liquid-crystal display (segmented LCD) is a type of liquid-crystal display commonly used for showing numerical or limited character information, primarily in devices like calculators and digital watches.

Segmented LCDs often display information in a one-line format.

[3] HP produced segmented LCDs for the HP-41C series of calculators.

[4] 8- and 16-segment LCDs are made as a stack of two glass sheets, each patterned with transparent electrodes, typically using indium tin oxide (ITO).

The first liquid crystal display was developed by a team of engineers led by George Heilmeier.
