When you watch a movie in a theater, the picture is always sharp and crystal clear you can actually see all the smaller details which you would never see if you were seeing the same film back at home. The sound too is so intense you could really imagine that you will be there where the action has taken place.
However the movie theaters have had it tough during the last decade hence they have had to be at the forefront of any new technology. They have helped push the Television Manufacturers to also push their technology in order to try to recreate the same theater type experience.
That is why you happen to be beginning to see more and more news and TV’s about 4K and Ultra HD TV’s. It’s exactly the same technology that began life within the big movie theaters.
The 4K actually means the quantity of pixels which you see when viewing your TV, it means 4,000 pixels which is the same amount you see at the movie theaters and it’s actually 4 times the volume of pixels which we would normally see in your own home on our TV’s.
You might have heard of pixels being mentioned in connection with cameras and the quantity of pixels that define a photograph, it’s just the same but over a much larger scale. You can see the greater pixels there exists you will have considerably more clarity in whatever you can see. This is about to change big time, in fact four times as many, although up until now our TV’s have had 1080 pixels at best.
So, with this latest upgrade in our televisions we shall see the latest technology (4K) being used to give us a superior picture all around, it will still be High Definition in fact it will be better than that it will be Ultra High Definition TV or UHDTV as some refer to it. This is the reason our company is seeing references to 4K UHDTVS everywhere.
Returning to our current series on TV’s we now have seen a few of them spacing out their pixels a little too much, it can be this that triggers the distorted or poor image quality that can often be seen. This is especially so on the larger units because 1080 is only able to stretch so far and there is not any manner in which anyone would like to watch something on the large 55 inch or larger tv having a fuzzy looking picture.
It is for this reason that the 4K technology has been rolled by and out making it possible for more pixels to be available that the pixel spacing can be lessened to create that much sharper and clearer image that we prefer to see, just as if we were going to watch a film in the theater.
If you got too close to the TV, you also had a similar problem if you sat off to the side because in these two situations the image became distorted and blurry, when we first saw the high resolution 1080 Televisions it was difficult to watch especially. You could potentially almost view the pixels themselves which created the illusion of seeing your TV from the fly screen door. So, the new 4K Ultra HD TV puts an end to that and this should be the case for a number of years.
