HDTV Monitor

HDTV is the latest and best television signal available. It pr odu ces pictur e qu ality more than twice that of traditional analog broadcasts. In order to effectively maximize the HDTV signal, a television must incorporate advanced signal input connectivity

3:2 Pulldown

3:2 Pulldown totally eliminates the unwanted artefacts that distort your picture viewing when watching movies. With these artefacts gone, you will enjoy the movie the way it is meant to be.

3D Combfilter

The 3D comb filter separates brightness and color signals better in 3D domain to eliminate cross-color, crossluminance and dot-crawl distortion - all of which detract from your viewing pleasure. The 3D digital comb filter performs field-by-field comparisons of the television image to accurately separate the color from the black-and-white information and remove both horizontally and vertically hanging dots, as well as dot crawl. The result is a razor sharp image.

Active Control + Light Sensor

Active Control is a unique and intelligent way of optimizing picture quality by measuring and analyzing the incoming signal to automatically adjust picture quality settings. Active Control with Light Sensor uses a sensor to adjust the picture brightness depending on the room light conditions.

Virtual Dolby Surround

Virtual Dolby Surround is a processing technology for enhancing surround sound effects. It will create the sensation of Dolby Pro Logic without the necessity of additional rear speakers. You become totally immersed in your television experience.

HDMI input

HDMI makes an uncompressed digital RGB connection from the source to the screen. By eliminating conversion to an analog signal, it delivers an unblemished image. The non-degraded signal reduces flicker and leads to a clearer picture. HDMI intelligently communicates the highest output resolution with the source device. The HDMI input is fully backward compatible with DVI sources but includes digital audio. HDMI uses HDCP copy protection.

Component Video Input (YPbPr)

Component Video is the highest quality interconnection standard for analog video. It is sharper than S-video and composite video.
