Plasma Technology: The Flat Panel Craze
Plasma monitor
Plasma displays are large, completely flat panel monitors that have no picture tube, allowing for a sixty-inch or larger monitor at a remarkable 3 to 4-inch thickness. With their thin space-saving design and minimal weight, plasma displays can be installed where conventional displays would never fit. They can be hung from walls, suspended from ceilings, or even mounted vertically.

This versatility allows plasma displays to be used everywhere from boutiques, art galleries and video stores to banks, hospitals and airports. Plasma technology makes possible a totally flat screen, so images are clear and bright with a viewing angle of more than 160° in both horizontal and vertical directions. Since the picture can be viewed from virtually any angle, plasma displays are ideal for presentations, public information displays and have recently become extremely popular in home applications. There is no distortion or unevenness in the picture at the corners or edges.

The result is a crisp, clear reproduction of even the finest details. One of the biggest advantages of plasma technology is that it is completely immune to magnetic fields. Unlike CRT monitors or Rear Projection TVs, the plasma display does not use an electronic beam, so it’s free from the effects of magnetic fields, ensuring a clear picture void of colour- / or image-distortion. This makes it ideal for use in any environment subject to electrical interference such as power generation facilities, factories, ships, railway stations, hospitals and home theatre applications.
