Samsung will demonstrate a range of new TVs and monitors at SID 2008 in Los Angeles this week, including an Ultra-definition TV.
At SID 2008, Samsung will unveil the industry's first 82-inch LCD TV panel with an ultra-definition (3,840 by 2,160 pixels) resolution at a 120Hz refresh rate. It displays ultra-definition (UD) resolution at 120 frames per second. A red/green/blue LED backlight has been added to raise true color saturation to 150 percent, based on the NISC standard of 100 percent.
Samsung will also introduce an 82-inch "e-board" with a multi-touch screen, which is destined to replace whiteboards and beam projectors. It was created using a 60Hz LCD panel with built-in UD resolution and is the largest panel of its kind with a multi-touch screen.
Additionally, Samsung will exhibit a multi-view digital information display (DID) that delivers 3D images without requiring special glasses. The company believes that this display can establish a new niche market apart from other DIDs previously announced.
A 40-inch full-HD LCD TV panel will also be showcased that operates with only two source driver ICs, instead of the normal combination of six source drivers and three gate drivers. This breakthrough should lower production costs and will make LCD TVs affordable to more customers.
Finally, Samsung will introduce a 15-inch LCD with a "blue phase mode", and a 2.3-inch e-paper that uses electrodes made from carbon nanotubes for enhanced "fold-ability". Visitors to the SID 2008 show in Los Angeles this week will be able to view these and other products.
