Resolution

Resolution is a combination of values that express the quality of displayed images. A display's resolution is indicated by the number of dots in the horizontal and vertical directions of the screen, such as 1024 x 768 dots. Higher values indicate clearer, sharper image reproduction. The larger the screen size, the higher the required

resolution.

HD (high-definition) panel

The HD panel has a resolution of 1,366 x 768 pixels and an aspect ratio of 16:9. It is designed for displaying the beautiful images of digital, high-definition broadcasts.

Full HD (high-definition) panel

The term "full-HD panel" refers to 1,920 x 1,080-pixel panels that display progressive images of full- specification HDTV signals without the use of up sampling.

Number of pixels

The number of pixels indicates the resolution of the Image. The number of pixels of a digital image is expressed by the product of the number of pixels (dots) in the horizontal direction and the number of pixels (dots) in the vertical direction. The higher the number of pixels, the better the image quality. For plasma TVs and LCD TVs, the number of pixels is sometimes expressed by the following equation: number of pixels in horizontal direction x number of pixels in vertical direction x 3 (R, G, B).

Pixel

A pixel is a tiny dot that forms the smallest basic unit of a displayed image. Digital images are composed of pixels, with all of the text and images displayed on the screen consisting of dots. Digital images are usually rendered by square pixels arranged vertically and horizontally in an orderly manner.

Plasma panel

A key component of the plasma display. A plasma panel is a collection of millions of tiny fluorescent lights. By firing these lights on and off at a rapid rate, the plasma panel produces images.
