Brightside's DR37-P extreme dynamic range LCD
The Canadians up at the appropriately named Brightside Technologies have created what they claim is the "World's First Extreme Dynamic Range Display." How extreme? We're talking about a 200,000:1 contrast ratio here, people. The DR37-P is actually capable of creating a pure black pixel, making the true ratio infinite. It also shows an amazing 16-bits of color by layering a traditional 8-bit LCD onto of an array of LED backlights. The 37-inch display has 1920 x 1080 of those sexy little pixels and accepts all the normal connections, including DVI. Too bad the bezel is large enough to noticeably alter the gravitational make-up of your living room. The price for all this contrasty goodness is similarly large at $45,000 US.
