The Sony OLED TV was first released in 2008. It is the first Organic Light Emitting Diode television. When measured, the XEL-1 model is just under 12 by 10 by 5.5 inches overall and weighs a little more than 4 pounds. It is only about three millimeters thick. The display on this small TV’s resolution is 960 by 540 pixels. This television offers picture quality with exceptionally high contrast, a very bright screen, outstanding color reproduction and an extremely fast response time. There is no backlight on these TV’s, so it is able to control all phases of light emissions from no light to its peak brightness. The new technology that is used displays exceptional color expression and detail without using a lot of power. Sony uses its own Super Top Emission technology to produce a wide aperture ratio producing high brightness and efficiency so the TV will display an accurate picture. This technology has a color filter and a micro cavity structure that allows it to reproduce all natural colors, so that all colors are what they were originally intended to be.
The display panel on the OLED does not use very much power because the light emitting structure of the panel eliminates the need for another light source. Since the OLED displays create their own light, any mercury associated with the usual TV backlighting is eliminated. The light emitted from the organic materials can spontaneously be turned on and off when an electric current is applied. This allows for rapid response times so there is smooth and natural reproduction of fast moving content(such as action movies and sporting events).
These new TV’s also feature the latest connectivity options, including two HDMI inputs and a memory stick slot so you can view high resolution photos. This model is also compatible with DMeX, so consumers can have BRAVIA Internet Video Link service on their TV. By using broadband connection, the module streams would select internet video-free of charge and put it right on the TV, without needing to use a computer.
This TV is one of the most important innovations in the television industry because it doesn’t only change the technology but also demonstrates a flawless picture quality. This flawless picture quality is soon going to be standard, so all TV’s will be compared to it. This is important in the future of the television industry because it allows you to do and see things that we have never seen on a television before. This new technology is allowing us to upload pictures and get movies straight off the internet without even needing a computer.
