Hitachi unveils 42-inch plasma monitors

The Home Electronics Division of Hitachi America, a subsidiary of Hitachi, launched its newest professional plasma monitor.

The CMP4211 and CMP4212 are 42-inch 16:9 HDTV plasma monitors designed to serve a broad range of commercial uses – from single-point signage and networked multisite retail display systems to custom AV applications.

The monitors are the newest additions to Hitachi's full line of 16:9 EDTV and HDTV plasma monitors, which already include 55-inch, 50-inch and 42-inch models. The monitors employ a number of advanced technologies to deliver a bright, sharp picture for extended periods of time. Hitachi's proprietary ALiS (Alternate Lighting of Surfaces) technology enables a high display resolution of 1024x1024 and combines with Hitachi's PC graphics processor to provide smoother, sharper images.

Using one of two Life Extension modes, the high-efficiency ALiS plasma display also improves long-term brightness performance over conventional plasma technologies, a key aspect when using plasma technology for digital signage applications.
