Wall Screen:  A computer-controlled liquid crystal or plasma display for a computer or entertainment system.  Common uses include cubicle walls (where they replace the wall, the computer monitor, and bulletin board); or as wall coverings in residences and office buildings.

A ship or vehicle can be coated in liquid crystal display tiles.  They are linked together and controlled by a small computer console.  This enables the operator to change the appearance of the vehicle at the flick of a switch.  A number of standard patterns are stored in the console but they are completely user-configurable.  Applications include camouflage, company logos, advertising, and false ID.

At TL 9 the wall screen becomes flexible, allowing it to be rolled up for storage, or to be fitted to oddly-shaped surfaces.

The values below are per square meter of wall screen.
