[Korea.net News, Science / Tech, October 24 2007] LG Electronics unveils flat panel with world's best contrast ratio

LG Electronics Inc., a Korean electronics giant, said Wednesday (Oct. 24) that it has developed a plasma display panel (PDP) with the world's best contrast between bright and dark colors on screen.

The new PDP named "G Platform" boasts a contrast ratio of 30,000:1, higher than existing products which mostly have a ratio of 15,000:1, the company said in a statement. A higher ratio means more vivid images, experts say.

The flat panel was unveiled at the FPD International 2007, a display show held in Japan, the company added.
