What is laser TV?

Laser TV is a new class of display products that combines innovations in three key areas: DLP technology with a laser light source, internet connectivity, and smart application-based operating systems. Combining these three technologies allows users to display a plethora of multimedia content onto screens or virtually any surface with typical display sizes of over 100-inches diagonal.

Laser TVs can be configured with ultra short throw optical modules allowing the product to be placed inches away from a display surface while still displaying a stunning image (see Figure 2).

For consumers who travel frequently or live in small homes, laser TVs with embedded wireless

capabilities can stream all types of online content on a huge screen while remaining very portable. This new generation of TVs provides consumers with the flexibility to move their display anywhere, including outdoors. For example, imagine sharing the big game experience or your favorite streaming content on a garage door with your neighbors and friends (see Figure 2).

Laser TV products can also be embedded into furniture (see Figure 2) or inconspicuously blended with décor for consumers who do not want a TV mounted on the wall but still want a large display.

Using DLP technology, developers can not only create a standalone laser TV but they can integrate a laser TV display to almost any electronic device.
