A high-scale innovation in the television industry is stimulating a constant evolution of flat-screen TVs. The new range of TVs come equipped with cutting-edge technologies like internet streaming, smart remotes, gaming, etc. In addition to this, features like high resolution and better sound quality are also making the consumers gravitate towards them which resultantly has led to a rise in their demand.
Flat panel TVs are present in almost all living spaces as they are compact, thin, and consume a fraction of space compared to their traditional bulky counterparts, which used cathode ray tubes. Flat TV panel manufacturers are incorporating the best and latest features in their products, with display technology being one of their most important aspects to focus on. Since the evolving landscape of display panels has introduced LED and LCD (the prominent ones) into the market, let us briefly understand what they stand for.
LCD stands for Liquid Crystal Display. It is a technology in which LCD panel manufacturers place three polarised glasses in layers. These layers have liquid crystals between them which rotate and align the moment electric current flows through them to let the light pass through the glass panel. That is how we see colours and images.
LED stands for Light Emitting Diode. Most buyers think of LED panels as an altogether different technology, whereas, in reality, they are an updated version of LCD technology. The difference is that LED technology is based on the movement of electrons, whereas LCD is based on the movement of liquid crystals. As current passes through these electrons, they recombine with holes to emit light and form an image.
The global flat-screen manufacturing industry is emerging as a sector that is highly innovative, and LED TV panel manufacturers in India have quickly caught up with it. Apart from LCD and LED, OLED, QLED, and Nano-cell (the upgraded versions of the existing ones) are some other latest display technologies prevalent in the market.
