Mitsubishi: the world's first laser HDTV

Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America unveiled the world’s first laser-based high-definition television at the company’s own National Dealer Line Show.

 

The Japanese manufacturer’s device is based on Texas Instruments ’1080p DLP (Digital Light Processing) HDTV chipset, which uses separate semiconductors to create the three base colors (RGB: red-green-blue), which are then combined using an intelligent circuit.

"With this achievement, Mitsubishi can now hold the world title for the third time, as we have produced 50" HVTVs (rear projection TVs) and 35 "TVs for the first time in the past," said Max Wasinger, a Japanese mammoth company. one of the vice presidents of commerce.

According to Mitsubishi, laser illumination provides much better color depth and a wider color gamut than currently available technologies, including displays with LED illumination. In numbers, compared to today's LCD TVs, the color scale produced can be up to 1,8 times! In addition, the newly developed display provides greater stability in placement as it has a more balanced weight distribution. Compared to today’s plasma and LCD TVs, it is expected to be more economical to manufacture and easier to produce on a larger scale as laser HDTVs are much narrower in design than their predecessors.

Unfortunately, we do not currently have information on expected pricing and device availability.
