Ultra-Slim Package, the Plasma Display
Revolutionizes Visual Presentation
Panel (PDP) is a Next-Generation
Large-screen PDP units boast ultra-slim dimensions, are surprisingly light in weight and deliver superb picture quality ­a combination of features that open up a host of opportunities in the visual presentation field, especially in the current HDTV/DVD era. As the advantages of PDPs over conventional CRT and projection-type video displays become increasingly apparent, PIONEER's next-generation PDP technology has established itself as a core element in all kinds of public display and visual communication systems. The launch of this new model, with its further improved picture quality and durability, represents a major triumph for PIONEER, which has continued to lead the industry in developing and mass producing PDPs from its early days.
A Large Screen in an Extremely Thin Package
Unlike conventional CRTs or projection displays, PDP has extraordinarily slim dimensions relative to its large screen size.
Lightweight Unit Design
In addition to their slender proportions, PDP units are also ultra-light in weight, two features that make these revolutionary displays ideal for wall- or ceiling-mounting installation.
A Wider Viewing Angle
PDPs provide an effective visual field angle of more than 160 degrees both horizontally and vertically. Spectators can enjoy sharp on-screen images from almost any viewing point, not just from immediately in front of the screen.
Accurate Display Characteristics
PDPs incorporate a true flat panel screen which ensures accurate and distortion-free images all the way out to the screen corners. Instant setup and convergence free operation assures the image quality will never change.
Free From Magnetic Interference
PDPs are not affected by magnetic fields, so they can be used close to loudspeakers without risk of screen distortion due to magnetic interference.
PDP Technology
In a PDP unit, a gas fills the spaces between two glass sheets which are lined up in parallel separated by a gap just 100 to 200 microns wide. UV light is generated by discharging this gas using electrodes. Red, green and blue fluorescent substances absorb these UV discharges and then re-radiate the energy as visible light to produce the colors that appear on the screen.

PIONEER is the World Leader in the Manufacture of
Industrial-Use Large-Screen Displays
For decades, PIONEER has led the world in the development, production and sale of the display systems. One of our most notable successes has been the Multi-Projection CUBE Video Wall system. Cube has achieved unrivaled popularity worldwide as a display system for public and commercial-use facilities as well as for all kinds of exhibitions and shows. Over the years, we have also established much of the technology and know-how to provide the solid reliability so important in the industrial-use market. For the future, PIONEER is positioning PDP as one of the core businesses in its long-term development strategy. Making the most of our expertise in video display-related circuit and panel manufacturing technologies, we are determined to continue providing PDP products that lead this field. As we move deeper into the era of multimedia, professional demands in respect of more effective video display systems will steadily increase and PIONEER will continue to respond to these demands through technological improvement and innovative design.
PIONEER's PDP Products are Created Totally in-House From Design to Assembly
While some PDP manufactures are content to OEM major display components, PIONEER manufactures all major PDP display components in it's own fabrication facility. In order to realize an ideal display system, PIONEER performs all processes in-house from the initial screen design and development through final assembly.
Only PIONEER Grasps Total Market Demands and Provides Products That Can be Installed Exactly as Desired
Thanks to a wealth of experience in the sale and installation of industrial-use display systems, PIONEER is adept at satisfying diverse operating environment-related demands. We provide strong and secure installation fixtures that make possible versatile installation configurations. What's more, we provide comprehensive customer service and support backed by a long record of excellence.

Newly Developed Panel Pushes the Previous Limits of Illumination Efficiency
New True Matrix Imaging Technology Makes On-Screen Images Brighter Than Ever
PIONEER's newly developed Encased Cell Structure ensures superior illumination efficiency by increasing phosphor surface area and eliminating light leakage from the neighboring above and below cells, thereby improving clarity in the vertical direction. In addition, this arrangement increases the amount of light produced resulting in brighter on-screen images.
Strucure of Newly Developed Panel
Transparent Electrode Front Glass Substrate
Black Stripes Greatly Improve Contrast Especially in Bright Locations
The new black stripes on the panel's non-luminous front section reduce the amount of external light reflected off the screen surface to effectively double the on-screen image contrast when the display is used in bright locations. Thanks to this innovation, viewers can enjoy sharp pictures, even under bright ambient lighting conditions, with no reduction in black contrast.
Auxiliary Electrode
Improved Blue Phosphor Makes On-Screen Whites Even Whiter
PIONEER's new plasma display achieves more brilliant white reproduction thanks to the employment of an improved blue phosphor that features an improved illumination efficiency balance. The color temperature can be set by changing the color balance controls.* Our new phosphor development brings enhanced white reproduction and sharper contrast to every image.
*These values have individually adjusted high and low levels. Once adjusted, color balance settings can be set into one of two color memories for each type of input. All of these adjustments can be done via a wireless remote or RS-232C control.
Red Phosphor
Digital High Density Image Scaling Technology Achieves 8 Times the Normal NTSC Signal Density for the Ultimate in High-Picture Quality
PIONEER's exclusive Digital Signal Processor (DSP) - Digital High Density Image Scaling Technology - uses progressive conversion to boost the NTSC picture quality by first doubling interlaced signal to VGA level. Then, by interpolation and estimation, doubles the information content in both the horizontal and vertical directions. The result is an 8-fold increase in original signal density that optimizes picture reproduction. Together with the high-definition panel this technology ensures very smooth picture reproduction. Moreover, in an industry first, PIONEER's Digital High Density Image Scaling Technology also succeeds in doubling the 1080i HD signal density, which means viewers can enjoy superb high-definition pictures that no CRT-based system can match.

Continuous Emission Display Technology Realizes Improved Contrast in Dark Image Sections and Eliminates False Contours
Most plasma displays require a continuous fixed discharge level, known as the reset level, in order to display an image. The problem is that if this level is too high, it can produce negative display qualities. However, PIONEER's original Continuous Emission Display Technology has succeeded in almost eliminating the need for a Rest Level. This allows the PDP-502MX to achieve a deeper and firmer black contrast for dark locations along with improved dark-scene gradation. Thanks to this advancement, PIONEER has completely eliminated one of the greatest image problems with conventional plasma displays, false contours.

PIONEER's Digital Enhancer Achieves Clear, High-Resolution Pictures from All Input Signals Including PC, Video, etc.
To ensure the finest and clearest possible PC image reproduction, the PDP-502MX is equipped with PIONEER's exclusive Digital Enhancer signal processing circuitry. This development has resulted in a 1-dot unit image management and enhancement in both the horizontal and vertical directions. This means that this model is capable of displaying fine text and graphic images from PC sources with much more clarity than pre-existing plasma displays. Accordingly, the PDP-502MX is the ideal display for a wide variety of presentation tasks.
