Panasonic Develops 103-inch 1080p Plasma Display Panel
Panasonic announced it has developed a prototype of a 103-inch plasma display panel (PDP) with 1080p (progressive) HDTV resolution. The prototype is claimed to be the world’s largest plasma display and can deliver resolutions like 1920×1080. Panasonic showed this first super-large-size prototype at CES 2006.
Panasonic has developed a new rib (a “rib” divides each gas cell and prevents interference between adjacent cells to produce clear images) and phosphor for these super large panels. The 103-inch 1080p plasma panel, equivalent to four 50-inch panels in size, features consistent and uniform discharge, delivering the same accurate images from the center to every corner of the screen and brightness as the current 50-inch HD model (TH-50PX500).
The panel incorporates Panasonic’s 1080p HD high-speed pixel drive. The same high-speed pixel drive is used in the TH-65PX500 65-inch 1080p Plasma TV, which has been well received in Japan since its introduction last November, and the 50-inch 1080p Plasma unveiled at CEATEC JAPAN 2005 in October 2005.
