A Billion-Color Display

Posted by kdawson on Saturday May 10, 2008 @09:24AM from the i-can-see-clearly-now dept.

The Future of Things covered the introduction last month of HP's DreamColor display, with 30 bits/pixel, developed in conjunction with DreamWorks Animation. The display is aimed at the video production, animation, and graphic arts industries. HP promises blacker blacks and whiter whites — though TFoT quotes one source who notes that if they deliver this, it will be due to the back-lighting and not to the number of bits/pixel. No word on the size of the displays that will actually be delivered, or on the price.

how am I supposed to see how good this display is if they don't show me a picture of it?

To see billions of colors at the same time one only needs LSD technology...
