Next week’s CEDIA electronics trade show will be packed with manufacturers showing off their latest plasma and LCD displays, but Syntax-Brillian, makers of the Olevia brand, will be demonstrating a different technology as well. The company announced Tuesday that it will exhibit a 65-inch liquid-crystal-on-silicon (LCoS) TV, dubbed the 665H, at this year’s CEDIA.
LCoS TVs are much like DLP TVs because they use rear projection, but instead of tiny mirrors, the image is actually produced with liquid crystals on a silicon chip. The LCoS process is capable of higher resolution than DLP, allowing Olevia’s 665H to display a full 1080p (1920×1080) image.
The TV also sports a snappy 4ms response time for gaming and action movies, and a 2000:1 contrast ratio. A built-in tuner handles both ATSC and NTSC signals, while the TV also has HDMI, component, VGA, S-video and composite inputs. The TV’s firmware is even upgradeable.
The Olevia 665H will sell for $1,999 when it goes on sale in the fourth quarter of 2007. Until then, home video gurus can check it out at the CEDIA expo in Denver Colorado, where Olevia will also present a range of other TVs.
