LEDs combine with LCD for the SIM2 Solar Series

Posted By: Harsh | Feb 4 2009

SIM2 Media and Dolby Laboratories have come together to create the Solar Series. The major technology behind the series is the Dolby Vision that works for local dimming. The LCD displays on the Solar Series Televisions will be backed by a grid of 2,026 LEDs, each addressable individually. Display brightness on the screens can be controlled by manipulating the brightness of these LEDs, to the point of switching them off.

These 47-inch displays will be capable of handling 16-bit high dynamic range (HDR) signals, and display 65,536 shades per colors. Since the LEDs can be switched off completely for the dark areas, the contrast ratio can theoretically be infinite, practically it will be above 1000000:1. Given the resolution of the screens at 1920x1080 full HD, that’s going to be some great display.
