NEC Plasma Display Corporation today announced the launch of 42-inch, 50-inch and jumbo 61-inch wide XGA plasma monitors equipped with NEC's own new 'Digital AccuDevice' engine.
The monitors will go on gradual sale worldwide by year end with different release dates for each region. Full supply will be achieved by start of 2004 targeting 25% of the world commercial marketshare.
Primary features of the new monitors.
(1) ‘Digital AccuDevice’ enables slim, high quality wide XGA plasma monitors by realizing full digital sampling of all input signals through digital signal processing.
(2) ‘Mass Area Superior Sampling Technology’ delivers high quality progressive imaging and smooth reproduction resulting in extra fine, clear color.
(3) Industry’s maximum color gradation, 4,096, realized by ‘
-12′(gamma-12), a 12 bit conversion technology for gamma correction.
(4)170% improvement of contrast ratio as compared with the current model.* Applies to PlasmaSync TM 61XM2 only.
(5)Improved functions: (I) NEC’s own advanced timer function that can be programmed to switch different input and activate image burn reduction tools at a specific time. (II) Auto ID function and PLE link function for multi-screen systems. (III) 4032 pattern digital zoom function.
NEC Plasma Display Corporation’s plasma monitors are used for a variety of purposes including multimedia presentations at corporations and educational facilities, in addition to information terminals at boutiques, retail shops, shopping centers, airports and railways. To date NEC Plasma Display Corporation has offered two distinguished product lines to meet these needs. However, the new PlasmaSyncTM series demonstrates all the specialized functions (including digital zoom, advanced timer and PLE link functions for nine or four screen multi-systems) required for both public information terminals and muti-media presentation displays providing customers with better solutions to fulfill their diversified needs.
