LG Display, a leading manufacturer of TFT-LCDs has unveiled a Full High Definition 23 inch 3D LCD Panel. LG boasts of World’s highest brightness among 3D Displays with this Panel. The Panel employs LG’s proprietary technology to realize Full HD images with twice the brightness of conventional 3D LCD panels.
Embedding the 3D Technology into Displays
In conventional 3D viewing, the technology is equally located in the Display and the viewing Glasses. The 3D glasses create a third dimension to the human eye by making the left and the right eyes see different perspective of the same image. This is done by alternatively shutting off their left and right lenses. It is like viewing an object by alternatively blinking your eyes. This uniform high speed shutting of lenses is what makes the 3D glasses quite expensive.
LG claims to have solved this problem by embedding a major part of the 3D technology into the Display. The time-sequential technology which was earlier built into the 3D glasses now resides on the Display itself. With this new Display, 3D glasses are still required. However a pair of low-priced polarized glasses would suffice, thus paving the way for increased 3D viewing among consumers.
LG Display will showcase it’s new Full HD 23-inch 3D LCD panel during the upcoming Society for Information Displays(SID) 2009 in San Antonio, Texas U.S.A.
