With the market introduction of the 4K x 2K LCD panel and its 64-inch screen diagonal, Sharp presents a display with more than 4 x HD resolution. Sharp has achieved this resolution of 4096 x 2160 pixels through a revised and compact pixel design. In comparison to a standard HD 65-inch panel, the image density of the new 4k2k panel (type LK636R3LA19) is twice as high at 85 ppi. The 4k x 2k display provides a billion colours with an NTSC value of 84% ensure natural image reproduction, while modern ASV technology provides a viewing angle of 176° in all directions.
The LCD panel is primarily intended for special e-Signage applications. For example: thanks to the extremely high resolution, images from numerous security cameras can be displayed in security control rooms in full resolution in parallel on one screen. The control of complex manufacturing plants can also be presented clearly, thanks to the high resolution. This is also vital in the medical sector for imaging diagnosis. Presentation in 8.8 million pixels allows for exact interpretation of X-rays or CT scans (for example), in the same way as classic films. And in terms of films: the film industry will also profit from the new 4k2k LCD technology in digital post-production. It will enable cutters to view the raw film material in its native resolution, allowing for more precise cutting.
