Particularly noteworthy new Samsung panels include a double-sided 2.22” wide LCD that shows different images on both sides of the same screen for mobile applications, a 70” diagonal, full-HD LCD TV panel for the home, and an 82” diagonal, digital information display (DID) for public settings.
Meanwhile, Samsung will introduce the largest (70” diagonal) full-high-definition LCD for consumer television applications. At CES 2007, Samsung will augment its initial success with 40” and 46” diagonal screen size standards by exhibiting a new 52” diagonal LCD screen standard that reproduces full HD video images at 120Hz with enhanced motion picture response time (MPRT). The 52” panel will be produced later this year on the company’s most advanced 8th-generation LCD manufacturing line.
For the lucrative DID market, the company will demonstrate several products that enable system designers to mount giant LCD panels adjacent to each other with minimal distance separating the display’s active viewing area. These include a 46” diagonal touch-screen DID, a 40” diagonal model with narrow bezels left and right, a 46” diagonal panel also for use with narrow bezel designs, as well as 57” and 82” diagonal DIDs.
Finally, Samsung will display a wide portfolio of LCD panels for computer monitor applications, including a 30” wide-aspect-ratio model, which is the industry’s largest LCD panel of its type. A variety of graphically-rich, ultra-slim high-resolution notebook PCs panels will be shown that are ideally suited to enhance the viewing experience when used in conjunction with the new Windows Vista operating system.
