What’s the Difference Among Flat Panel digital displays?
Plasma digital display, LCD digital display, rear projection digital display, DLP digital display…what’s the difference? Because many folks are confused about these new technologies (everyone does know they all look great!), we’ve provided some brief definitions of each technology so you’ll have a clearer awareness as you make your buying decision. All these technologies create magnificent pictures.

Plasma digital display - Plasma screens employ a matrix of tiny gas plasma bubbles coated by phosphor and charged by precise electrical voltages to create a picture. Presently, more screens beyond 30-inches are available in plasma than LCD. Dazzling images!

LCD digital display - Liquid crystal display digital display uses LCD technology (generally TFT), as opposed to cathode ray or plasma for its visual output. The result is breathtaking images. Larger screen LCD televisions are hugely popular as more and more are produced.

Rear projection digital display - A large-screen digital display that uses one of several technologies for generating the image. All methods yield larger screens than the one-tube, direct view CRT digital display, which reached a practical limit around 36". Although not as visually dazzling as plasma digital displays, rear-projection digital displays offer a competitive alternative at a far more affordable price.

DLP digital display - DLP (Digital Lighting Processing) technology uses an optical semiconductor to manipulate light digitally. Picture quality is masterful. You’ll find DLP technology in many televisions, home theater systems and business and entertainment projectors.
