Sony Develops TVs That Zoom in for True Close-ups

Posted by samzenpus on from the examine-her-on-the-cellular-level dept.

prakslash writes "Sony has unveiled version 2 of its 'Digital Reality Creation' technology that allows viewers to pan around a TV image and then zoom in. Unlike the current TVs that simply scale the image, Sony's technology does 'true' zooming by digitally enhancing the signal to communicate gloss, depth and texture.

    "communicate gloss, depth and texture." -- sounds like a nice big filter kernel. Yawn. Next.

    Because the porn jokes, as made by 10 people already and will be made by 50 more by the time I reach the bottom of the page, are really boring. Having said that, bullettime orgasms would be cool.
