AUO unveils 65-inch full high-definition 120Hz LCD TV display

AU Optronics (AUO) has unveiled Taiwan's first 65-inch full high-definition (HD) 120Hz LCD TV panel, claiming it to be the world's second able-to-be-commercialized 65-inch LCD panel, and to reach CRT- and plasma-like image quality in motion picture response time.

The 65-inch full HD LCD TV display is equipped with HDTV 1,920×1,080 resolution, ASPD 120Hz driving technology for motion blur reduction, AMVA superior wide-viewing angle technology and HiColor saturation technology. With ASPD double frame rate 120Hz technology, AUO's 65-inch LCD TV panel has achieved a faster response time of 4ms gray-to-gray and 8ms motion picture response time (MPRT). It also features AUO AMVA technology for color washout improvement at large viewing angles, HiColor technology for a wide color gamut (92% of NTSC), high contrast of 2,000:1, and true 10-bit gray scale for better image processing quality in displaying billions of colors.

It is expected that large-sized LCD TVs which include full high-definition (HD), high resolution, and double frame rate 120Hz will go mainstream, said David Su, senior vice president and general manager of TV Display/Consumer Product Display Business Groups of AUO. With the addition of 65-inch full HD panels, AUO is able to offer customers TV panels featuring full HD and ASPD 120Hz driving technology in the sizes of 42-, 46- and 65-inches, Su noted.

Two 65-inch panels can be economically cut via AUO's sixth-generation (6G) fabs and mass production will commence in the third quarter.

AUO will be debuting the 65-inch FHD 120HZ LCD TV panel at Display Taiwan 2007, from June 13 to June 15, in Taipei.
