Intel gaat projectors en tv's verbeteren

Een opvallend bericht: Intel gaat zich bezighouden met de fabricage van LCOS
oftewel Liquid Crystal on Silicon. Deze technologie wordt gebruikt om
microdisplays te maken die toegepast worden in grote \'rear projection\' TV\'s en
projectors met hoge resoluties. Intel verwacht met deze stap veel voordeel te
halen uit het feit dat men veel kennis heeft van het vervaardigen van chips. De
eerste producten worden aan het einde van dit jaar verwacht.
Hieronder het complete bericht:
Intel President and Chief Operating Officer Paul Otellini today demonstrated
Intel silicon technology that is expected to bring about high-definition,
large-screen TVs with clearer pictures than current systems for less than
$2,000.
The new Intel technology, code-named Cayley, is based on a technique called
Liquid Crystal on Silicon (LCOS), which is used to create small chips called
microdisplays that produce images that are displayed on large-screen, rear
projection TVs.
"By bringing advanced silicon technologies to consumer electronics, Intel is
transforming the digital home of today to enable people to enjoy and manage
their digital content in the setting that best suits their needs," said Glenda
Dorchak, vice president and general manager of Intel\'s Consumer Electronics
Group. "Using Intel\'s silicon design and manufacturing expertise, we\'re helping
to bring large-screen, high-definition TVs to market at lower costs, giving
consumers exciting new options for consuming content in the digital home."
LCOS technology sandwiches a layer of liquid crystal between a cover glass and a
highly reflective, mirror-like surface patterned with pixels that sits on top of
a silicon chip. These layers form a microdisplay that can be used in projection
displays such as large-screen, rear-projection TVs. Intel\'s Cayley LCOS
technology uses Intel\'s advanced silicon manufacturing processes to produce a
high-quality surface for reflecting light which creates an extremely bright
display.
Intel has developed a unique fabrication process for LCOS microdisplays that
enables them to track to Moore\'s Law - the theorem first outlined by Intel
co-founder Gordon Moore that states that the number of transistors on a chip
roughly doubles every two years, resulting in more features, increased
performance and decreased cost per transistor. By increasing the transistor
count on the silicon used in the LCOS microdisplay, Intel chip designers can
integrate additional functionality to improve display performance such as
brightness and image quality.
Intel\'s Cayley LCOS technology is based on an all digital design that produces a
sharper, more precise image than other architectures based on analog technology.
Another key aspect of the LCOS technology is that it enables the creation of
multiple microdisplays with increasing levels of resolution without changing
size of the microdisplay. The consistent and compatible display area of
microdisplays based on Intel\'s LCOS technology will enable OEMs to re-use light
engine designs for a wide array of products in various screen sizes and
resolutions, thus reducing their development costs.
Intel plans to deliver microdisplays based on Cayley in the second half of this
year. A number of leading OEMs and HDTV component manufacturers including
InFocus Corporation of the United States, TCL and Skyworth of the People\'s
Republic of China and Primax PDC of Taiwan are currently developing products
based on prototype microdisplays from Intel.
