What is the difference between TFT and Dual Scan?

Here you are:


Dual Scan
To create a better picture than those on early passive-matrix, flat-panel displays, companies began splitting the screen into two parts and refreshing each simultaneously. These dual-scan displays are brighter and clearer than single-scan LCD screens. However, they are still not as bright as active-matrix displays.


TFT
Thin Film Transitor

Often called "active matrix" display, this is the brightest, most viewable kind of LCD flat-panel display. It is also more expensive than "passive matrix" screens. In a TFT display, each pixel is actively controlled by one or more transistors.
