Keywords
PDP, Plasma, LCD, Liquid Crystal Projection, DMD

 

Abstract
The CRT has dominated the display industry for 100 years. Its reign is coming to an end, not tomorrow, but in the not-too-distant future. This article provides an overview of the progress being made by flat-panel displays in chipping away at the TV market. Plasma display technology has been developing fast but, watch out - here comes the LCD juggernaut, sweeping all before it …

There are other technologies to watch as well, and there could still be more surprises round the corner. Beware; there is some hype about, but there is also some well founded market research to guide the way.
