JVC has succeeded in developing the 1.75-inch 8K4K D-ILA device, the world’s first device to achieve real Super Hi-Vision definition level. The new device has approximately 50% higher density in its ratio of area per pixel as compared to the 1.27-inch 4K2K D-ILA device,which was originally the world’s smallest 4K device. The newly developed 1.75-inch 8K4K D-ILA device has the world’s largest number of pixels and is able to display images of approximately 35 megapixels (8192 x 4320 pixels), the equivalent of more than 17 times the level of Full High-Definition. This means that a single display device can now produce Super Hi-Vision images and can display images with the highest number of pixels currently defined under international standards.
Super Hi-Vision is a TV broadcasting service currently under development at NHK; a single image has
approximately 33 megapixels (7680 x 4320 pixels), with 60 frame/second sequential scanning and 22.2
multichannel sound. Image format is international standard ITU-R BT.1769, SMPTE 2036. Diagonal size is
1.67 inches at Super Hi-Vision standard pixel dimensions of 7680 x 4320.
