Plasma TV A Big Screen For a Little Room




By Tom Ace

One of the biggest drawbacks of the big screen television is the space
needed for the television set itself. The plasma TV technology has
made it possible to incorporate a big screen television into a small
room. To understand how this change came about, briefly consider the
difference in technology between a traditional television set and a
plasma TV.

For the majority of time that television sets have been used as part of
the home entertainment system, the television picked up a analog signal
sent out by a broadcaster. That signal was analyzed by the television
set and cathode ray tubes lit up the screen of the television. Thousands
of tiny pixels make up the screen of the TV set in three colors - red,
blue and green. Combinations of colors gave different hues as seen in
real life and the result was a movie that (as nearly as possible)
duplicated what we see in the real world. Digital television systems
have increased the quality of the picture though many signals are still in
analog form.

The plasma TV uses a different kind of technology for producing the
picture though the reception is the same. In the case of the plasma TV,
the pixels are lit up using something very similar to a fluorescent light.
One of the biggest advantages is that the plasma TV technology uses
much less space than the cathode ray tubes. This means that the
plasma TV is only a few inches thick as opposed to the tube
televisions that were large, bulky pieces of furniture.

This means that a smaller room that might not have been suitable for a
big screen television set before could now have sufficient room.
Because the screens are flat, you are also not dealing with the
distortion at the edges of the screen and don't really have to be directly
in front of the plasma TV to get a good view.
