Support Audio Description signal

(p. 12 and p. 22)

Audio description (AD) is an ancillary component associated with a broadcast which delivers a verbal description of the visual scene as an aid to understanding and enjoyment particularly for visually-impaired viewers.

HD ready

HD ready means the ability to display high-definition

pictures from HDMI and Component video inputs.

V-real 2

V-real 2 technology is the collective name for original technologies developed by Panasonic to enhance total image quality: V-real 2 PROCESSOR: Enhance and output the incoming video signals as high-image-quality signals. The resulting video signals deliver the kind of high resolution that large screens require. V-real 2 DRIVER: Precisely controls panel drive to optimise its performance. Achieves high image quality with the equivalent of high steps of gradation. V-real 2 PANEL: Provide clear, vivid display of the video signal after processing by the V-real 2 Processor and Driver.

High contrast

Contrast is the difference in light intensity between the brightest white and the darkest black that the VIERA can produce. The ability to express rich, deep blacks is extremely important for displaying beautiful pictures.

High gradation

Gradation refers to the smoothness of colour expression. Rich, fine gradation is extremely important for maximising the high resolution panel.

Lead-free display

All VIERA plasma display panels are lead-free. This reduces the impact on the environment when recycling or disposing of them in the future.
