There’s a Laser in that HDTV!
Digital TV Design Line has an in-depth article about laser light sources in projection TV’s. Like the one Mitsubishi will be introducing. If you’re interested in the technology, you might like to read it.
Why do we care about laser light sources? Well, they have a wider colour gamut, for one. Plus they’re brighter than traditional light sources as well, and will perform evenly over their lifetimes, instead of getting dimmer or changing their colour characteristics. Plus rear-projection displays will be able to be made much thinner than traditional ones, thanks to their “narrow composite beam angle”.
Exciting times indeed. I can’t wait see these HDTV’s.
