Higher
resolution
Plasma display devices have higher resolution than most conventional
TV sets, and are capable of displaying full HDTV and DTV signals
as well as XGA, SVGA and VGA signals from a computer. For example,
a plasma display with a 1024 x 1024 pixel resolution can display
images from 1080i and 720p HDTV resolution, as well as 480i and
480p HD signals.
No scan lines
Plasma screens have no
scan lines due to the fact that each and every pixel cell has its
own transistor electrode. This creates a smooth evenly lit image
across the entire surface of the display. Most current plasma displays
also include built-in line doubling to improve image quality from
low resolution video signals. Conventional CRTs use an electron
beam to scan the picture tube from top to bottom at regular intervals,
lighting the phosphors to create the image. With standard (NTSC)
TV, visible scan lines can be seen.
Exceptional color accuracy
High-end plasma displays are capable of displaying 16.77 million
colors -- providing superb color realism with exceptionally subtle
gradations between colors. Color saturation is one of the most poignant
factors elevating plasma screens over other display technologies.
