FPD International Shows Business as Anything But Flat

摘要

The 69,000 visitors to FPD International (FPDI), held October 19-21, 2005 in Yokohama, Japan, saw a flat-panel-display (FPD) industry in creative ferment. Because key large-screen FPD-TV models are selling extremely well and coming ever closer to true mass-market status, manufacturers have concluded that continued success depends on sharply reducing the motion blur and expanding the color gamut in liquid-crystal displays (LCDs), in increasing the resolution of plasma-display panels (PDPs), and in reducing costs for all technologies.
