JVC Launches Full HD 3D LCD Monitor for Professional Use
46-Inch Large, 1-1/2 inches (39mm) Thin Display Provides Rich Visual Experience
Las Vegas, NV, April 20, 2009 – JVC
is pleased to announce the launch of a large full HD 3D LCD monitor
for professional use. The GD-463D10, slated for release in July 2009,
is 46-inch large and 1-1/2 inches (39mm) thin and uses JVC’s
unique high-quality 3D visual engine to deliver a natural,
flicker-free visual experience. JVC
plans to produce 2,000 units of the GD-463D10 a year for the global
market.
The GD-463D10 provides flicker-free 3D images by
adopting the Xpol ® polarizing filter method and battery-free
passive-type circular polarizing filter glasses. Video input is
compatible with industry standard line-by-line and side-by-side 3D
formats. JVC’s unique 3D decoder circuit translates images into
the optimal Xpol display format and demonstrates the ability to
accommodate subtle gradations and shades of color.
Primary
Features of JVC’s GD-463D10:
1.
At 46 inches, the GD-463D10 is a large 3D LCD monitor for
professional use. JVC’s unique high-quality 3D visual engine
reproduces high-quality images befitting this new era of wide,
high-resolution displays. The compact 1-1/2 inches (39mm) depth
allows for greater flexibility in the layout of 3D visual
environments.
2. The GD-463D10 is compatible with the industry
standard line-by-line and side-by-side 3D video formats.
3.
The Xpol polarizing filter method moves beyond the shutter method to
provide a stable, flicker-free visual experience. Whereas the left
eye and right eye information switches back and forth on a shutter
glass display, the GD-463D10 always displays left and right images on
the screen to offer clean, stable 3D images. The GD-463D10 includes
two pairs of battery-free, light polarizing glasses.
4. The
GD-463D10’s three HDMI input terminals are compatible with
standard HD video signals, including 1080/24p, 50p, 60p, 50i and 60i.
Input signals in line-by-line or side-by-side format can be displayed
as 3D images (50i and 60i for side-by-side format only).
Development
Background
Full HD digital
broadcasting and blu-ray content are emerging as mainstays in the
household visual environment while wide-screen and high-resolution
images are more popular than ever. In such an environment, 3D content
is now being looked upon as the next wave in visual entertainment.
This is especially true in Hollywood, where the movie industry is
planning more than twenty 3D movies in 2009 following the
establishment of several full-scale 3D movie production and
distribution companies in 2008; approximately 2,000 of the United
States’ estimated 39,000 cinema screens are now 3D compatible.*
Clearly, demand for 3D monitors used in movie production, promotion
and broadcasting test events is positioned to grow.
Although
JVC has developed the GD-463D10 to meet content producer requirements
for a monitor capable of providing a rich 3D visual environment, the
future is not just about entertainment. In fact, JVC sees
opportunities for enterprise-use 3D monitors in fields that rely
heavily on simulation, including the fields of scientific research
and medical education.
