projectors and LCD panels would qualify as RGB devices. Sometimes if the
choice is between RGB and CMY color production systems, RGB comes out
the loser. In an effort to make brighter LCD screens, many manufacturers
have investigated using CMY filters for the reason that more of the
spectrum is transmitted than with RGB filters.
More spectrum == brighter & less saturated.
I would imagine that most LCD screens get good saturation and reasonable
brightness because they are backlit with fluorescent lighting, that
emits bright, (relatively) narrow band RGB, even though the LCD filters are
broadband filters.
