To execute this color display, the monitor processes standard NTSC or PAL signals into distinct red, green, and blue images, displayed sequentially. This technology did not come to fruition until the early 2000s, due in part to the cost of the complex electronics needed for this transformation in video output. The LCCS monitor initially sold for around $1,200—much more than standard CRTs of the time—but offered significant advantages in color rendition and visibility under bright lighting conditions.
