Red Green Blue…. and Yellow?

Saturday, January 9th, 2010

That’s what Sharp is saying. At CES they introduced QuadPixel technology to the Aquos LCD panels. So what is QuadPixel? The non tech explination is that they have added “Y” to the standard RGB making four pixels in every picture element instead of three.

OK, so now that we’ve got four colors what does that give us? How about 1 trillion colors. Yeah, a trillion is what Sharp is saying. Regular LCDs can render a billion colors so obviously there weren’t enough.

The highlight of Sharp's CES announcements was the introduction of QuadPixel tech

Sharp says QuadPixel TVs will ship in May this year. The LE 920 Series will be available in screen sizes measuring 52 ($3,300), 60 ($4,099) and 68 inches ($6,499).

Polar Bear TV Might Maul You

Thursday, January 7th, 2010

One of the fun things about trade shows other than seeing all the new things is getting to see all the crazy things and this classifies as crazy. It’s the Hannspree Polar Bear TV ($299) and is a 19″, 720p, TV that will be available in March from Hannspree. It’s designed to “raise awareness” about polar bears, and is just the first in a series of other (unspecified) threatened animal TVs, but it doesn’t actually help the polar bears in any way if you buy one. Except with karma, maybe, but karma isn’t an unmeltable iceberg or a tasty seal. For now it get’s labeled a fuzzy crapgadget. (even thought it’s not USB)
