Plasma displays are set to become one of the mainstream display devices of the future, and as such are expected to enjoy good market growth. Plasma displays have a number of features, which include a slim, space-saving form factor, self-illumination, digital operation and wide viewing angle. The thinness of the displays allows them to be used in a wide range of installation configurations, and their wide viewing angle means that many people can view the screen at the same time. Thus, plasma displays create a new visual image space that is unlike that of a conventional CRT or projection TV. The ability to display small text and graphics, as well as moving pictures, at high resolutions makes plasma panels suitable for large-screen displays able to handle the fusion of data and moving pictures that is developing through a process of media digitization. Another feature is that since the displays do not use magnets, they can be moved and oriented in different directions without having to adjust the colors and focus each time. CMP401XU is the industry's first 41-inch XGA display with a 4:3 aspect ratio and the highest resolution. The display thus encompasses a range of display resolutions and screen sizes that make it suitable for a broad range of market needs. The 41-inch XGA display has a 4:3 aspect ratio, providing a display area that is larger than a wide picture format of the same size. This makes the display ideal for conference-room presentations to groups of people and for displaying information in public spaces.
