Innovations in Toshiba’s Display Technologies Toshiba’s Satellite® 5100 multimedia notebook, featuring a 15” Super Fine Screen UXGA (Ultra Extended Graphics Array) display provides high resolution, enhanced viewing from a wide angle and double the contrast ratio of the conventional display. With fast responses times and high-colour fidelity, this notebook is ideal for watching full-motion video, working with graphics applications or delivering stunning presentations. This innovative Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) comes as no surprise, as Toshiba has long had a record of delivering state-of-the-art displays to its customers. In 1985, Toshiba released the first commercially successful notebook, the T1100, overcoming the challenge of creating a clearly legible display for mobile products. In 1986, Toshiba demonstrated the first active-matrix standalone LCD, supporting 8 colours and 640 x 480 pixels. In this article, we explore how LCD technology has evolved since then, as well as looking at alternative display technologies that offer Toshiba customers a state-of-the-art viewing experience across a range of products, including televisions, PDAs, notebooks, displays, videowalls, televisions and flat panels. Finally, we take a look at emerging display technologies, and explore how Toshiba continues to be one of the leaders in this field.
