Only, you can not
but take notice of them now. While technology placed hard limits on the size of CRTs from the 1940~90s (screen area, depth, weight, and price) in comparison the purchase considerations these days are concerned with the affect on living arrangement. The least obstruction might be for a rolling/folding screen combined with projector technology that would bright enough for daylight use, but even a "so cheap its practically free" 100" TV is always going to be thirty square feet when deployed vs. the 22" 4:3 of yesteryear (which barely cracked 1.5)

Virtual display (via glasses or brain-tap!) is the only display technology that might bypass the living arrangement angle.
