Although some HDTV sets are available in standard (rather square) screen sizes, the overwhelming majority of sets are wide screen, which eliminates  is Powered by UltraContrast(TM)Gen II Liquid-Crystal-on-Silicon (LCoS(TM)) Technology

Brillian Corp. (Nasdaq: BRLC) today launched the 6580iFB six-megapixel 1080p HDTV and Media Server video platform, the third in its family of UltraContrast(TM) Gen II LCoS(TM)-based HDTVs. The 65-inch diagonal 1080p HDTV/Media Server display provides the highest contrast -- up to 4000:1 -- and highest fidelity images available today in an LCoS rear-projection TV A large-screen TV set that uses one of several technologies for generating the image. All methods yield larger screens than the one-tube, direct view CRT TV, which reached a practical limit around 36". .

"The 6580iFB was engineered specifically for custom home theater An audio/video entertainment center that has a large-screen TV and hi-fi system with three speakers in the front (left, right and center) and left and right speakers in the rear. Starting in the early 1990s, video inputs were added to stereo receivers and preamplifiers.  and ProAV applications," said Rainer Kuhn, Brillian vice president of sales and product marketing. "Its combination of a true six-megapixel light engine, 12-bit grayscale In computing, a grayscale or greyscale digital image is an image in which the value of each pixel is a single sample. Displayed images of this sort are typically composed of shades of gray, varying from black at the weakest intensity to white at the strongest, though in  per color channel performance, professional-grade video processing, custom calibration software, and support for home automation/corporate AV control systems make it unlike any other HDTV in the market."

"We conducted a detailed review of the Brillian 6580iFB set and, to state it simply, it performed outstandingly. The best 1080p HDTVs at its price point that we've ever seen," said Dr. Raymond Soneira, president, DisplayMate Technologies Corp. "The combination of image quality, video processing, software control, and overall system design delivered truly exceptional performance in every metric we evaluated."

The Brillian 1080p HDTV light engine uses three two-megapixel UltraContrast(TM) Gen II LCoS(TM) microdisplays that meet the highest (1920 x 1080) HDTV format. Each of the 1920 x 1080-pixel microdisplays in the three-panel light engine is dedicated to a single color -- red, green, or blue -- resulting in a true six-megapixel projected image. The red, green, and blue light is channeled, integrated, and then projected, creating a totally rainbow- and artifact-free image. The light engine is solid-state, eliminating the need for motorized mo·tor·ize
