Making the
invisible visible.
Clearly see every little detail like never before with the best 8K
professional display on the market.
The 8M-B80AX1E 8K 80” LCD display is the second generation
of professional 8K displays from Sharp. At the very leading
edge of the pro-display market, it allows high-end professional
users to enjoy the ultimate in image precision and clarity. Its 8K
7680x4320 screen provides an exponential step-up in terms of
image detail with 16x the resolution of Full-HD 1920x1080 (or 4x
the resolution of 4K 3840x2160).
Rather than simply upscaling content, like other 8K displays,
it is a key component of Sharp’s end-to-end 8K ecosystem.
Displaying native 8K content dramatically improves the
picture quality, providing lifelike images like nothing else
available today. So it raises the bar significantly for business
environments that depend on exceptional detail, such as
design studios, TV broadcasters and traic control rooms.
Brilliantly realistic
As well as providing twice the brightness of first generation
professional 8K displays, with 800 cd/m (or up to 4000 cd/m
Peak Level), the 8M-B80AX1E HDR (High Dynamic Range)
technology also expands the contrast and colour range
significantly. It means that the bright parts of an image get
brighter, adding greater depth, and colours are more saturated
and natural-looking. So images, films and virtual reality (VR)
content look incredibly realistic, creating a more immersive
experience than was ever possible before.

More colour, more precision
The 8M-B80AX1E’s 10-Bit Extended Colour Range delivers
superior image realism and significantly enhanced colour
accuracy. It increases the range of possible colour values in
each pixel up to 1.07 billion colours, so images appear much
more lifelike and natural. This is especially important in many
manufacturing processes. For example, when designing and
testing how products will look to the consumer using virtual
reality, or in automotive and aerospace design when matching
colours of dierent body panel sections. It also oers real
benefits for the forensic examination of very high-resolution
images, like ancient artefacts for museum exhibits, and
surveillance at large sporting events to identify individuals by
their clothing.
In addition, with over five times more local dimming backlight
zones and a much greater number of LEDs, it enables a much
greater contrast level between dark and bright areas, so
images are clearer and sharper. Unlike other displays, it enables
more precise control of production processes and greater
realism when creating complex designs. It also provides vital
extra clarity and legibility in time and information critical
environments. For example, more accurate medical images
enable doctors to make better informed decisions about their
patients’ healthcare.
Always pure 8K content
With two sets of 4x HDMI2.0a inputs, the 8M-B80AX1E supports
the current standard of 8K signal input for up to two sources.
So you can display end-to-end 8K signals. For example, a
production studio could connect a Sharp 8K camera and an
8K workstation to a single display and switch seamlessly
between sources.
It is also future-proofed for the forthcoming 8K HDMI
transmission standard for 8K content at 60fps with the
inclusion of an HDMI2.1 port
cables required to drive the display, minimising the cost and
complexity of installations and professional applications.
8K is 16x the resolution of today’s Full-HD or 4x that of 4K

Essential for
high performance business.
The ability to quickly create or analyse extremely precise
data is critical to enhancing productivity and enabling more
eective decision-making.
The 8M-B80AX1E 8K display’s superior image realism, with clear colours and sharper definition, delivers significant benefits
in some of the world’s most data intensive business environments.
Clearly better designs
Businesses are creating increasingly sophisticated digital
drawings, designs and blueprints using Computer Aided Design
(CAD) or Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) applications.
The one limiting factor has been the ability to display this
information with exceptional colour accuracy and contrast
precision – until now.
With the 8M-B80AX1E even the most complex designs can
be examined in minute detail. And its lifelike realism is also
facilitating the use of virtual reality, making it much easier to
assess how new products or machinery will look and perform
in the real world.
Bringing video to life
High quality video production is obviously essential in the
TV and Broadcasting industry. So the 8M-B80AX1E allows
businesses to edit extremely high-resolution graphics and
video and create incredibly realistic content.

More detail, more control
For some professionals, the ability to track vital
information can literally be a matter of life or death.
So having access to reliable high-quality images can
aid fast, safe decision-making. For example, in today’s
crowded skies, Air Traic Controllers need to accurately
track thousand of flights that are represented by
multiple lines and symbols. Surveillance operators
and emergency services workers have to monitor large
numbers of CCTV camera images on one screen. So the
greater the resolution the less risk there is of incidents
being missed or suspects escaping because their
facial features are unclear. Similarly, public transport
companies can monitor the movement of multiple
vehicles simultaneously, so there is less confusion and
possible delays.

Fast, precise data analysis
Speed is essential in high pressure commercial
environments like energy businesses, financial centres
and commodities trading floors. Every day bankers
and dealers have to rapidly digest an endless stream
of graphs, images and screens full of small text. But
one simple mistake in reading all of this complex
information, like a missed digit, can result in potentially
huge losses. So the ability to process a large amount of
information, which is both clear and extremely legible,
on one display not only enhances productivity, but also
reduces the level of risk.

Doing more with less.
Enhancing productivity is one thing. Doing it eiciently and
cost-eectively is a real business bonus.
As well as unlocking new and more detailed information
insights, the 8M-B80AX1E 8K display also helps businesses to
reduce costs, enhance operational eiciency and work more
productively.
Its 80” 8K LCD panel makes it possible to display up to 16x FullHD 1920x1080 images on one screen, but even fine text and
images are still crystal clear. Especially as it has:
• A static contrast ratio of 3000:1, which maximises image
clarity and makes images appear more three dimensional
making the background more realistic and accentuating
fine details.
• A 120Hz frame rate doubler, displaying up to 120 images
per second, which reduces motion blur during fast panning
or movement, making scenes appear more lifelike.
As a result, fewer displays are required to show the same
amount of content, or even more, without sacrificing image
quality. And that means less wall or room space is needed,
lowering costs and enhancing operational eiciency.

moving forward with R&D on a full-featured 8K
production system aiming for the 2020 Tokyo
Olympic & Paralympic Games.³

Instantly more professional
Whatever your business needs, the 8M-B80AX1E’s built-in USB
Media Player ensures that you can get started straightaway.
It supports 4K video and 8K static images, so can display
impressive images and video without the cost of buying or
operating any extra equipment. As long as your content is on
your USB stick, you can plug in and play, instantly. You can also
use the display in standalone configuration, without additional
bulky kit and setup.
All you need for 8K
Sharp has a vision to change the way the world is viewed, with a
level of detail and realism never previously experienced. We’re
developing a full 8K ecosystem with a line-up of 8K solutions
that will allow you to shoot, store and play all on native 8K
equipment and displays.
The Sharp 8C-B60B 8K (60p) Professional Camcorder integrates

playback. It also delivers line output for video streaming in 8K
regardless of location. Sharp have also unveiled a compact 8K
camera for future release.
So, with Sharp’s support, you will be able to create your own
stunning 8K images and video content, which can be easily
displayed to maximum eect on the 8M-B80AX1E 8K display.
