A major trend is visible at the ongoing Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas - all renowned Plasma- and LCD-screen manufacturers are presenting very thin devices.
New lighting method of LCD screens
According to JVC, technical innovations in back lighting of the LC display brought this remarkable reduction in depth. With the help of new light-diffusion layers, the fluorescent tubes move closer to the LCD screen. Detailed information at gizmodo.com
Conventional LCD compared to the new, slim version
At CES all major display manufacturers showed new LC displays in the range of 20 to 40mm thickness. Both the weight and power consumption should therefore also be reduced. The integration into a wall should get much easier in future.
Also Plasma-screens getting thinner
Pioneer presented a just 9mm thick plasma screen at CES. In the middle section the concept device is a bit thicker with 18mm. There is no launch date for this device till now.
