Short psalm [alliloyia]. In certain hours, roughly 23, we will know the all new models of televisions Plasma of Panasonic. To FullHD.gr however knows him from now and it leaves to leak something... We selected between a lot of letters of lines the TX-P42G20, who is forecasted becomes most popular.

We have and say. This year's Plasma of Panasonic will be thin, really thin.
They will have evolved menu with regulations, while the black their their and movement is better from the running G10 line.

Will exist powerful network support with VieraCast that "runs" even application Skype in order that the television becomes telephone!

And of course will exist USB Dongle via that the television will be connected wireless with our domestic network (Wi-Fi), while exists big probability is granted also possibility of registration of television programs in card-memory or USB Stick by the television except the reproduction.

If him we combine all them together and if we mark that Panasonic to us will come out a lot High-end this year, perhaps will be the most important year of technology Plasma.

Because only the technology Plasma is 3D Ready and this will offer him generously Panasonic.

Patience in few hours we might say more.

En Panasonic sponsored de twee lineaire en een on-demand 3D kanalen op DirecTV, 3D scherm demo met DirecTV op CES.

[marz01]

Panasonic invited us to a sneak peak of 3D at its booth tonight and representatives from DirecTV were there showing off its new 1080p 3D HD demo feed. The quality was pretty good and quite enjoyable. There were no noticeable compression artifacts in the demo loop which included soccer, College Football, Avatar, Toy Story 3, and a few documentaries with awesome architecture and breathtaking views of mountains and ocean wildlife. We also had the chance to speak with the DirecTV technical staff which told us that the 1080p24 3D signal doesn't take any more bandwidth than 2D content at the same resolution and frame rate. We were told the demo was indeed real and that we were actually watching the signal you'll be able to watch in June -- after your existing set-top gets a simple firmware update and assuming you have a 3D HDTV, that is. We have to say this is something we're looking forward to and with every demo we become more convinced that 3D is actually going to take off.

Panasonic does it again, introduces 152-inch 3D 4k HDTV

If that gigantic HDTV above looks a few inches shy of 152-inches, its because it is. While Panasonic has shared a few details about the existence of its new biggest HDTV ever (full release after the break) it has not been shown to the public yet. We imagine it'll look a lot like its little brother pictured above, after all, it features the same 4k resolution and a relatively unobtainable price. What will make a bigger difference then the extra two inches though is the fact that this one is will display 3D content. Panasonic is giving a sneak peak of their new stuff in a bit, so with any luck we'll get a real life picture of the new behemoth in action.

PANASONIC DEVELOPS WORLD'S LARGEST 152-INCH FULL HD 3D PLASMA DISPLAY

The ultra-large, 4K x 2K quadruple full HD plasma panel creates a true full HD 3D world, delivering an overwhelming immersive experience

LAS VEGAS, NV (January 6, 2010) – Panasonic Corporation, a world leader in the HDTV technology, has developed the world's largest1) 152-inch 4K x 2K definition Full HD 3D plasma display. The display features a revolutionary new plasma display panel (PDP) Panasonic developed with its new super-efficient quadruple luminous efficiency technology2). The technology enhances PDP's unique advantages as self-illuminating device, contributing to delivering an overwhelming immersive experience to viewers. The Panasonic 152-inch Full HD 3D PDP creates a true Full HD 3D world by faithfully reproducing 3D content such as Hollywood 3D movie titles11).

Self-illuminating plasma panels offer excellent response to moving images with full movition picture resolution3), making them suitable for rapid 3D image display. By employing the newly-developed ultra high-speed 3D drive technology, which adopts the super-efficient quadruple luminous efficiency technology, the new panel achieves a higher illuminating speed, about one fourth the speed of conventional Full HD panels4). This technology enables high-quality Full HD 3D display on the ultra large 152-inch 4K x 2K (4,096 x 2,160 pixels) panel.

The panel also incorporates a crosstalk reduction technology, essential for producing clear 3D images. Compared to other display technologies that use line-at-a-time driving method5), PDPs use frame-at-a-time driving method6) that gives PDP TVs an advantage in crosstalk reduction in principle. Panasonic has successfully developed a unique technology to minimize double-image that occurs when left- and right-eye images are switched alternately. The development has resulted in the 3D compatible plasma display that can render clear and smooth high-quality pictures by accurately reproducing video sources.

The ultra-large 152-inch Full HD 3D PDP, which delivers true 3D movie-theater experience, follows the development of the industry's first 103-inch Class size Full HD 3D PDP Panasonic introduced in 20087) and the home theater size 50-inch Class Full HD 3D PDP in 20098).

This year, which is really the first year of 3D Television, 3D TVs are expected to accelerate the growth of the flat-panel television market by providing new values to customers.

Television has evolved over the years through technological innovations. It started as a device to produce images to be simply watched and then it became a tool when connectivity with other AV devices is added. Now, with the 3D technology, it has developed into a device that delivers an immersive viewing experience, moving into literally an era of "next dimension."

Panasonic launches its first Full HD 3D TVs in 2010 with PDP technology, which is highly suitable for 3D TVs, to offer the utmost picture quality. Panasonic's new 3D TVs will deliver a true full HD 3D quality to create new and exciting television experiences.

Because 3D plasma displays can reproduce highly realistic images, they are considered ideal not only for home theater use but also for a wide variety of uses such as business, medical, education and commercial applications.

Panasonic will make the First Year of 3D Television as a springboard to boost its popularity, capitalizing on the company's ability to offer complete end-to-end solutions from professional 3D camcorders and Blu-ray Disc authoring service to consumer use 3D TVs and displays and 3D-enabled Blu-ray Disc players.

Furthermore, Panasonic strives to accelerate the spread of 3D products and drive growth in the the flat-panel television market, focusing on the development of a 3D infrastructure including 3D content through increased cooperation with Hollywood studios and broadcasters. The company hopes to contribute to the enhancement of 3D related business and the development of a new industry, which may be called 3D economic system that can be brought about through interactions among the related businesses.

1. Newly developed ultra high-speed 3D drive technology enables 3D display on ultra-large (152-inch), super high resolution (4K x 2K) panels

Using the super-efficient quadruple luminous efficiency technology, Panasonic developed 3D ultra high-speed drive technology. Compared to the conventional full HD panels4), the technology allows the new panel to achieve the same brilliance at about one-fourth speed. The new 152-inch panel also uses a new technology that enables even and stable discharge. Thanks to this discharge technology, the new panel can provide full HD images for left and right eyes formed with twice the volume of information as regular full HD images across the vast expanse of the screen equivalent to nine 50-inch panels with super high resolution (4,096 x 2,160) - four times the full HD (1,920 x 1,080) specification - while maintaining the brightness.

The new advanced PDP delivers high-quality 3D images, with virtually infinite 5,000,000:19 contrast ratio, accurate color reproduction and subtle gradation tones, on the ultra-large screen. With characters in the screen approach the viewers in life size, the new panel creates an overwhelmingly immersive experience.

2. Cross-talk reduction enables clear, high-definition 3D images

Because displaying 3D images involves alternate displays of left- and right-eye images, reducing the overlap (cross-talk) between these images is essential for high-quality 3D images. Unlike 3D LCD panels that use line by line scanning method, PDPs use frame-sequential method that displays images frame by frame very quickly, giving PDPs a tremendous advantage in crosstalk reduction. Incorporating newly-developed phosphors with short luminescence decay time - one third the time of conventional phosphors4) - as well as illumination control technology, the cross-talk reduction technology has succeeded in minimizing double images.


Enhancing the video reproduction capability of PDP, which has full moving picture resolution, the technology enables crisp and clear, high-quality 3D images by faithfully reproducing video sources.

3. Full HD x 2 frame sequential method
To reproduce 3D images, the new PDP uses the full HD x 2 frame10) sequential method that displays time sequential images, alternately reproducing discrete full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) images for the left and right eyes on the display frame by frame. By adopting the method which is used in showing Hollywood 3D films in theaters, the new panel accurately reproduces high-quality 3D images in the living room.

Nog wat info uit de Panasonic Pressroom:

PANASONIC INTRODUCES FULL HD 3D CONSUMER PLASMA HDTVS AND IMPROVES ITS AWARD WINNING LINE OF VIERA® PLASMA HDTVS

2010 Line Focuses on Enhancing the User's TV Experience With Expanded VIERA CAST™ Internet Accessibility, Improved Picture Quality, Luminous and Energy Efficiency and a Continuing Commitment to the Environment

LAS VEGAS, NV (January 6, 2010) - Panasonic Corporation of North America (NYSE:PC), the industry and technology leader in High Definition Plasma televisions, introduced its 2010 line of VIERA® Plasma HDTVs at the Consumer Electronics Show, including the premiere of Full HD 3D1 television for the home environment.  Building upon the award winning 2009 line of Plasma HDTVs, Panasonic showcased expanded internet functionality via the proprietary VIERA CAST IPTV functionality and NeoPDP technologies resulting in improved picture quality.  Adhering to Panasonic's commitment to the environment, all 2010 models have improved power consumption and meet the new, more stringent Energy Star 4.0 requirements.  The 2010 VIERA line of Plasma HDTVs now achieve four times luminous efficiency. The 2010 VIERA line also features VIERA Link™ for increased networking and VIERA Image Viewer™ to allow for watching digital still and HD video on the Plasma screen.

Year after year, Panasonic has been dedicated to bringing new picture improving technologies to HDTVs and the 2010 line-up continues that trend. The educated consumer now demands blacker blacks, faster response time and the billions of colors that Panasonic Plasmas deliver. Panasonic has been recognized for having the deepest blacks in the industry and the 2010 class takes that a step further by creating new NeoPDP technologies providing a new infinite black filter with a higher efficiency panel that generates the best balance of black and white under brighter environments. The new panel named "infinite black" further reduces reflections and creates sharper pictures with higher contrast in brighter environments. In addition, a new panel structure and pre-discharge control technology contribute to realize an increased native infinite contrast level. Panasonic also continues its relationship with THX® Ltd., with 10 VIERA HDTV models achieving THX certification by the prestigious company founded by filmmaker George Lucas.



Panasonic's company wide commitment to sustainability and producing products that are ecologically sound is evidenced in the 100,000 hour life span of the Plasma HDTVs and the lack of lead or mercury in the panels. Improved power efficiency has been addressed with, among other technology advances, new and improved phosphor mixtures and more efficient electronics.

"When all is said and done, the consumer is most interested in great picture quality," said Bob Perry, Senior Vice President, Panasonic Consumer Electronics Company. "There is no doubt that Panasonic Plasma HDTVs deliver tremendous picture quality. Our pledge to excellence and value have been affirmed by the critical acclaim our TVs have received from both the consumer and trade media, not to mention that Panasonic has been the market leader for the majority of the last three years. Panasonic continues to improve its technology, while providing such entertainment enhancements as an IPTV functionality, VIERA CAST and the VIERA Image Viewer that allows the consumer to view pictures on a large screen. Panasonic is totally committed to the success and growth of Plasma.

"And with our introduction of Full HD 3D in screen sizes ranging from 50 inches to 65 inches, Panasonic is bringing the last frontier of television into the home. We've gone from black & white to color to digital to high definition. Now with 3D, Panasonic is making television more realistic. 3D has proven quite successful in its theatrical form and we are confident that will successfully translate into the consumer electronics arena," added Perry.

Panasonic's proprietary IPTV functionality, VIERA CAST enhances the user experience by adding USB connectivity, allowing for the addition of a wireless LAN adaptor, keyboard and USB memory.  In addition to the continuation of such favorite entertainment sites as Amazon Video On Demand™. Google's YouTube™, Picasa™ Web Album, Bloomberg and weather service; the 2010 VIERA CAST provides access to such targeted sites as Netflix™, Skype™3, Pandora, Twitter and Fox Sports. With ease of use as a major focus, VIERA CAST's interface implements quick keyword input (like a cell phone) to help retrieve favorite content faster and easier. Panasonic HDTVs employ VIERA Link - a technology that utilizes HDMI-CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) and allows a consumer to operate all VIERA Link compatible A/V components using only the TV's remote control and helpful on-screen menus. In addition to operating a VIERA HDTV, video source (Blu-ray and DVD player) and home theater receiver; VIERA Link permits operation of a network camera, ideal for monitoring of a home/nursery. A VIERA Link capable Network Camera can be connected to select VIERA HDTVs and controlled via VIERA Link remote. Users can then watch their child, pet and/or property by installing the camera and networking to the VIERA HDTV via Ethernet cable.

As in 2009, all Panasonic VIERA HDTVs feature VIERA Image Viewer, a function for easy viewing of digital still photos and in some models, the ability to play back AVCHD video recorded on SD card.

For 2010, VIERA Plasma HDTVs are rated, as in 2009, to have a lifespan of 100,000 hours. This is more than 30 years of viewing when watched for 8 hours a day, before the TV reaches half brightness. To further improve picture quality, VIERA HDTVs feature some breakthrough consumer innovations like 600Hz Sub-field Drive and Infinite Black with improved contrast ratios. The prestigious THX certification is further proof of Panasonic's dedication to producing the highest quality viewing experience possible. THX works closely with Panasonic from initial product design phase to the final product rollout in the market. THX certification ensures that each display can present all HD and standard definition content to the maximum resolution with clean signal processing and accurate color, contrast and luminance levels. All THX Certified VIERA HDTVs also feature THX Movie Mode, a picture setting that recreates vivid studio colors, deep blacks and detailed images right out of the box.

PANASONIC DEVELOPS SUPER-EFFICIENT PLASMA DISPLAY PANEL WITH QUADRUPLE LUMINANCE EFFICIENCY
New Panel Technology Enables Super Energy-Efficient Operation of Only
95 Watts Panels on Display at 2010 International CES



LAS VEGAS, NV (January 6, 2010) - Panasonic Corporation, a worldwide leader in High Definition technology, today announced the development of new plasma display panels (PDP) that boast quadruple luminance efficiency1) marking a major breakthrough in PDP technology.



The new quadruple luminance efficiency plasma panels are incorporated in all 2010 models of VIERA plasma HDTVs.  The panels will also be featured in Panasonic's "World's Largest" 152-inch Full HD 3D plasma display and VIERA Cast-enabled HDTVs supporting Skype video calls.  They will all be displayed at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2010) from January 7 through 10 in Las Vegas, Nevada.



The new quadruple luminance efficiency panel evolved from Panasonic's "NeoPDP" panel developed in 20082) and "NeoPDPeco" panel developed in 20093) with twice and triple the brightness of its 2007 models, respectively.  The new panels can produce the same screen brightness as 2007 panels using only a fraction of the electric power consumption of those panels three years ago. 



The achievement of the revolutionary quadruple luminance efficiency panel involves major advances in many constituent elements of PDP: development of new phosphor materials, super high-speed drive technology and adaptive signal processing technology to reduce power consumption and improvements in all the facets of the panel-illuminating process that includes discharge, illumination and light extraction.  These improvements have enabled the astounding progress in luminance efficiency resulting in a 42-inch Full-HD display that consumes a meager 95 watts4)–less than a typical room lamp's 100-watt light bulb.



Furthermore, the new panel has enhanced a key advantage of PDP to the fullest extent, attaining a remarkable 5,000,000:15) contrast ratio.  With superb color rendition and subtle gradation of tones, the new panel faithfully reproduces details of high-definition sources from the pure white of virgin snow to the jet black of night.





As Plasma display panels are self-illuminating devices, they offer other well-known advantages such as wide viewing angles and full resolution of moving pictures6).  Coupled with these inherent benefits of plasma technology, the new plasma panel has taken PDP's image rendering quality to an even higher level.  The new panel delivers high-contrast, full-color, higher brightness, crisp and clear spectacular images - even fast-moving sports scenes - regardless of the viewing angle.



The new display technology will not only enable further enhancement in image quality and energy-savings in 2D flat-panel TVs but also in the new Full HD 3D home theater systems. And vivid visual communications via video conferencing will be truly realistic, with high-quality images on a large-screen display at a scale never imagined before.  Bringing about these revolutions in the living room, Panasonic will take TV to a whole new level of entertainment and communication.



Panasonic will further capitalize on the technology acquired through the development of the new super-efficient plasma panel.  The energy-saving technology, for example, can be applied to products in other categories.  Panasonic will continue to deliver environmentally-friendly products that meet the diverse needs of customers around the world.



In fact further improvements in luminance efficiency of plasma panels is expected in the years ahead, through continual advances in science and related refinements in design, materials and electrical components.7)   And both consumers and industry are taking strong interest in this potential given the fundamental  performance, durability and quality benefits of plasma. .



In particular, further advances in 4Kx2K (4096x2160 pixels) super high-definition display technology will expand plasma's applications to such displays in the most popular sizes, making plasma capable of fulfilling the most demanding needs of medical professionals, film studios and post-production houses, education, government and businesses of all kinds.



Panasonic will actively promote products using this new panel technology in both consumer and industrial markets, striving to deliver on its promise to create new and exciting television experiences!

Heeft Panasonic intussen de van Pio gekochte Kuro technologie geïmplementeerd in de 2010 modellen?
Verder weer een hoop marketing geneuzel: 5000.000:1 contrast ratio??

[htjan160756]

Hallo,

Ik wou in 2009 een nieuwe Plasma gaan kopen, maar omdat het gene wat ik wou niet meer te koop was (Pioneer 9060)ben ik gaan wachten.
Nu hoop ik dat deze modellen wel dit jaar, liefst in Mei/Juni uit komen in Nederland.
Het lijk me toch dat ze veel nieuwe TV willen verkopen voor het WK gaat beginnen?
Nu mijn vraag:
Ik heb interesses in het 3D model 58" of 65" V serie model, maar is dit compatible met alle 3D facetten?
Of te wel, kan ik straks 3D spellen spelen met mijn Playstation 3, en alle Blu-rays bekijken in 3D die ervoor uitkomen?
Of gaat dit weer de kant op van de Video VHS of Betmax?

Groetjes J@n

Was dat maar zo . Ik zie nog steeds zilveren randen onderaan , ik denk dat we nog verder moeten wachten tot 2011.
Ben stiekem wel benieuwd naar 3D, maar op hifi.nl las ik dat Philips 3D weer uit de koelkast heeft gehaald en wil gaan proberen de brilprothese die je nu nog nodig hebt zsm te laten verdwijenen. Dat zou mooi zijn, dan laat ik mijn nieuwe Pio nog even staan en dan doe ik het in een keer goed.
