Sharp Unveils New 8K Television Systems
Story Highlights
From ubergizmo.com:
Every year at CES, companies are eager to push the limits to technology and have never been shy about unveiling new television products. Sometimes these products are bigger and better than we might have expected and we guess this is more about showing off what they can do, as opposed to trying to sell it to us. After all, not everyone can afford a whopping 100” television set, can then? Well Sharp will be at CES 2014 this year and sure enough the company is looking to impress with several high-end television sets, ranging from televisions featuring 8K displays, to televisions sporting Sharp’s IGZO display technology. However for those who don’t need 4K or want something bigger, well Sharp has something in store for you guys with their pair of 8K television sets. Yup, you heard that right, according to Sharp, “4K today, 8K tomorrow.” One of these 8K devices will be a glasses-free 3D television and was created together with Philips and Dolby to help deliver a very high-resolution glasses-free 3D viewing experience. Given that 4K has yet to be the standard, we can only imagine the sharpness one might experience with 8K. As we said earlier, not all these products are for sale and with Sharp’s 8K offerings, they are meant to be a “glimpse into the future”.: http://www.ubergizmo.com/2014/01/sharp-unveils-new-8k-television-systems/
