Features:
3LCD Chips
The 3LCD technology at the heart of Sony's BRAVIA televisions provide a bright picture, with high detail and natural color. These three key benefits are immediately apparent when viewing a BRAVIA TV. You can expect to see an incredibly detailed picture with eye-popping colors. Sony uses three tiny LCD chips (0.73") with a combined resolution of over 2.76 million pixels. The light from a high output UHP lamp shines into a filtering system that splits the beam into red, green, and blue light streams. Each color goes through its own LCD chip, which passes or blocks the light. The three beams are then instantaneously recombined and sent to the projection lens.
BRAVIA Engine EX System
The BRAVIA Engine EX video processing system came about as a result of Sony's expertise and long heritage in bringing cutting-edge picture quality to consumer televisions. It contains intelligent picture enhancement technology that reduces unwanted digital artifacts and delivers superb clarity and detail along with vivid colors. Sony's own Digital Reality Creation Multi-function v1.0 (DRC-MFv1) processor replaces the original SD signal with its HD equivalent. The result of BRAVIA Engine EX processing? Picture quality has texture and detail, deep and vibrant colors, along with excellent depth and contrast.
Live Color Creation
Live Color Creation is a special Sony function that achieves precise, wide color reproduction using a combination of advanced chroma signal processing algorithms. The benefit is clear blues, natural greens and overall vibrant colors in all scenes.
Xross Media Bar (XMB) On-Screen Menu System
Xross Media Bar is Sony's Emmy Award1 winning on-screen navigation interface. XMB users can navigate through the different types of media by scrolling horizontally across icons. After selecting the media type, a list of its content appears as vertical thumbnails. The main benefit of the XMB is that it alleviates the need to look at the remote control while searching and selecting content.
DMex Compatibility
DMex compatibility allows the connection and operation of a whole new category of products that is being developed by Sony (sold separately). The first of these products is the optional BRAVIA Internet Video Link module.
BRAVIA Internet Video Link
The first DMex product to be introduced to the market is the DMX-NV1 BRAVIA Internet Video Link module (sold separately). BIVL, as it is affectionately called, can stream available Internet video from select content providers directly to your TV with a broadband connection2 without the need for a PC.
BRAVIA Theater Sync
Go beyond simple audio and video transmission with the "one-touch play" remote control feature that allows you to easily manage select Sony HDMI audio and video components with a single remote.
S-Force Front Surround
S-Force Front Surround is a virtual surround sound experience made possible using just two front speakers - in select BRAVIA models. To accomplish this, Sony spent several years studying how our ears work. By understanding exactly how we recognize the origin, direction, volume and timing differences in sound right and left ear, Sony was able to create complex audio processing that delivers dynamic virtual surround sound without the need to bounc
Advanced Iris
Created to improve contrast expression in darker scenes, the Advanced Iris function uses one of two modes to display a better looking picture. The auto mode has two settings designed to work best with video content such that varies between bright and dark scenes. For added convenience, you can also manually control this feature to suit the specific program you are watching.
HDMI and PC Connectivity
Designed for maximum versatility, Sony's BRAVIA MDPJ H-Series high definition televisions are equipped with a generous range of input interfaces. The HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is an all-digital audio/video interface. HDMI supports enhanced or High Definition video, together with multi-channel digital audio to provide matchless image and sound reproduction. Two (2) 1080p HDMI connections are part of the jack pack for KDF-37H1000. A PC input (via HDMI) offers easy connection to your PC, allowing you to use your high resolution KDF-37H1000 HDTV with your PC3.
