! ! SHARP 4K Display TRENDS The 2014 International CES opened this year as a record breaking show with more than 3,200 exhibitors across the largest show floor in history – more than two million net square feet of exhibit space – breaking last year’s previously set record of 1.92 million net square feet. Innovation and the promise and power of technology drove this year’s pre-show press events that kicked off with CES Unveiled LAS VEGAS on Sunday night with 99 tabletop displays where exhibitors provided a sneak preview of their show floor product launches. Twenty five exhibitors then revealed new products during CES Press Day on Monday. TV Displays are always the big attraction around the show and this year the image quality became even more beautiful with the proliferation of 4K UHD TV. If you think your 1080i HD TV has a perfect image, rethink twice, or I would say 4K. Other evolution, the curved displays, apparently offering a better depth in the screen. www.cesweb.org
