Sony has developed a new display system incorporating an independent drive RGB LED with a high-density LED backlight that can individually control three primary colours – R (red), G (green), and B (blue) [RGB], and suitable for large screens.
This panel allows each RGB colour to emit light independently, resulting in high colour purity and the ability to reproduce images with a vibrant, wide colour gamut.
Backlit tech
The display system is equipped with Sony’s proprietary advanced backlight control technology, designed to maximise the panel’s characteristics.
This backlight control technology enables faithful reproduction of delicate hues and subtle gradations of light across every corner of the display, even on large screens.
In cinematic works such as films, the ability to convey narrative expression relies significantly on the subtleties of colour and black representation, as well as the gradation of light.
Image quality
This system enhances these elements to provide image quality that faithfully reflects the creator’s intent and is suitable for both film production and home viewing as well.
Key features of the newly developed display system wide colour gamut performance enabled by an independent drive RGB LED, high picture quality through new backlit technology and expanded colour volume for natural image representation among other features.
The system can also achieve peak brightness levels of over 4000 cd/m², a benchmark already realised in Sony’s professional monitors, resulting in the highest colour volume in the history of Sony’s display devices.
Creators
Sony said it has supported creators’ activities for years through professional monitors used for colour grading in video production and BRAVIA utilised as reference monitors.
“The display system has been developed leveraging unique experience and technical expertise gained from this. This system is to begin mass production in 2025, aiming to expand its integration into consumer televisions and displays for content creation.”
Sony said it will continue to expand the possibilities of visual expression through technology, building the future of entertainment together with creators.
