LG LF75 full HD LCD Monitor

LG will demonstrate next generation 1920 x 1080/60p full HD video content at IFA 2007. LG’s next generation full HD TVs can display 60 frames per second at a 1920 x 1080 resolution. The “p” in 60p stands for progressive scan. These 60p TVs differ from 1920 x 1080/30p TVs that show only 30 frames per second and 1920 x 1080/60i or interlaced TVs that only refresh half the lines of resolution at a time. 60p-capable TVs can display a larger amount of information per second than any other type of televisions. Sixty-frame per second progressive scan technology dramatically reduces moirĂ© effect and image noise, creating sharper images.

The edges of round objects are clearer and free from jaggedness that has sometimes been evident with existing content. Moiré effect is an optical illusion that causes the appearance of lines across an image, degrading video quality and resolution. LG used its LF75 full HD LCD TV, to the test the 60p content; this model is set to be launched globally in this month.
