The 'Dream 6' series panel incorporates 'Crystal Clear Fine' inorganic alignment layer HTPS technology, and is designed for true-HD-ready (1080p) TV systems and home cinema projectors. The 0,7 panel will be developed for projector manufacturers worldwide.
As resolution and image quality are increasing, so too are the availability of high-definition players and digital high-definition broadcasting. There is a new demand for products that allow high-resolution images to be viewed quickly and easily in the home, in particular those that offer a large screen with a dramatic impact.
Epson says that it has developed its D6 panels in order to meet these demands. They are the first panels to feature Epsons 'Crystal Clear Fine (C2 Fine)' inorganic alignment technology.
Hans Dummer, GM, Epson SA, says: The 1080p panel marks a milestone in 3LCD development. The panel makes true HD viewing more accessible to home cinema or big screen enthusiasts than ever before. There is no doubt we will see a new range of home cinema projectors entering the market. It is an extremely exciting time for cinema in the home.
Technical features of C2 Fine technology are said to be:
1. Use of vertical alignment technology achieves high contrast;
2. Use of inorganic alignment layer reduces liquid-crystal orientation unevenness and produces smooth on-screen images;
3. Use of normally-black mode and vertical alignment technology enables reproduction of jet black.
