TV manufacturers have a serious problem: last year for the first time in a decade has decreased worldwide sales of television sets. And this despite two major sporting events, usually the best excuses to replace the old model to the new: the Olympics in London and Euro football games. According to research firm IHS iSuppli, in 2012, recorded sales of 16.1 million TVs less than in the previous season (238.5 million to 254.6 million). Decrease in itself trivial, but as frightening harbinger of profound collapse.
lower demand last year was in fact the result of the downturn in the global economy. It meant the market saturation flat-panel LCD – and, however far lesser extent, plasma – which replaced the worn-out models of CRT. It is therefore high time to convince customers that they are today great Full HD TV with an impressive resolution of 1920 × 1080 pixels, touted as the miracle of consumer electronics, it’s antique and obsolete. That you have to have them replaced for the better.
World Championships 4K
next year’s football World Cup in Brazil is a great opportunity to promote the new offer. To harvest was successful, now you have to plant the seed of desire in customers. In the current year can be expected the first harbingers of a great marketing campaign, promoting the TV with a resolution of the new 4K standard – theoretically four times better than today’s Full HD. As well as using heavily modified or completely new templates that display better colors.
Abbreviation
4K refers to 4 thousand. pixels – points that make up the image – at the base of a new generation of televisions display. As an approximation, because in the case of the new standard television screens that number is 3840. This is exactly twice in 1920, the number of pixels at the base of the screen with Full HD (1920 × 1080). Vertical also points is twice more: in 2160. Two times two equals four, which means that on the same surface of the new generation of TV show four times as many pixels: a total of more than 8 million (about 8.3 megapixels).
means – as manufacturers tout – it is impossible to make out the individual hairs on his head. See wrinkles on the face actress, yet thick grain retouched screen. A crystal clear, razor-sharp precision image delight in reproducing reality. Theoretically speaking, it is correct, math does not lie. In practice, however, the effect may not be as spectacular as on paper. A downright difficult to capture eyes.
human eye, but extremely effective, there is no unlimited capacity to perceive details. And manufacturers seem to ignore this fact and compete for screwing the customer technical performance even when he completely does not make sense. An example of the lucrative smartphone market, where the screen-size of a hand stuffs already exactly the pixels, as even the largest display Full HD TVs. Five-inch display with a resolution of 1920 × 1080 are now on aot The Sony Xperia and Samsung Galaxy S4. Even holding the phone at the nose, it is difficult to see the difference in sharpness compared to multiple screens theoretically less precise.
incomparably larger TV screen fourfold difference in the number of pixels between Full HD and 4K should be more visible. And so it is, but the effect does this impression only when the screen is very large, and the audience sitting close by. Pointless to buy a receiver with a screen diagonal 4K 42-inch and transmission from a typical viewing distance of 2-3 m 4K resolution requires at least a 50-inch screen, and it’s really a minimum, the real fun begins with more than 60 inches. As per the terms of typical Polish housing and wages, it is difficult to foretell the success of this technology crazy.
Cinematic scale
But if you can afford, watch a movie on the 84-inch 4K TV appears to be a feast for the eye. Perhaps more impressive than omit the ocean visible in close detail, however, does the size of the screen. It is known from the economies of scale cinema, yet difficult to achieve at home. 4K resolution is not so much as an added value as a condition for maintaining image quality. On this scale, and full HD would have been noticeably grainy. The impressive 84-inch 4K LG valued at bagatelle, nearly 80 thousand. z?. 55-inch models, such as Sony or Samsung, costing three or four times less. But it’s still a fortune.
Another question related to the 4K concerns the quality of content. This standard is hope for moviegoers can finally digitize because without loss of quality films shot on 35mm film. It therefore has a bright future in traditional theaters, but it will be harder to dominate cinema. Feature film, stored in 4K, because the volume may be even a lot more than 100 GB. It’s much more than they can accommodate available in stores Blu-ray disc. There are already optical media including standard and customized readers to 4K, but because of the price they are used only for professional purposes.
shall transfer over the Internet, but in practice will benefit from it without gnashing teeth, users of high-speed links. 4K TV does not exist, although experiments with broadcasting signal in such a high resolution has been carried out in the past decade. First signs of real technological revolution is likely to glide over Japan and Korea next year, but beyond the stage of exoticism 4K TV probably has a chance to go until the second half of the decade.
which can therefore expect a happy buyer supertelewizora allowing hair counts? The 4K camera rig, so that direct a family event or show a child in the school with a riot of detail. TV manufacturers probably put it on a video game enthusiasts, but eventually it turned out recently that the next-gen consoles: Xbox One, and it was significantly more powerful than the PlayStation 4 will handle no breath at most games in Full HD resolution.
consolation is the possibility of scaling the lower resolution TV picture format to 4K. This half-measure, but it’s something. Higher resolution is going to be the case as
