2 4 COLOUR REVOLUTIONQUATTRON DEBUT Sharp’s leading-edge liquid crystal technology has produced the revolutionary 4-primary colour technology for a first in the industry.* 1 It employs a four-colour filter that adds yellow ( Y ) to the three primary colours of red, green and blue ( RGB ), expanding the colour gamut and faithfully rendering nearly all colours that can be discerned with the unaided human eye, especially golden yellow. Combined with Sharp’s 1080P and X-Gen panel that applies UV 2A *2 technology, the displays deliver an unprecedented high-quality picture as well as reduce energy consumption with an LED backlight. Innovation is in our DN *1 Based on publicly available information as of March 2010. *2 Ultraviolet-induced multi-domain ver tical alignment (UV2A) is a manufacturing method in which UV light is used for precision control of liquid cr ystal molecules to ensure uniform alignment in specific directions.
3 4-Primary Colour Technology System and X-Gen Panel Technology The newly developed 4-primar y colour system and X-Gen panel are Sharp's unique leading-edge technologies that dramatically improve colour expressiveness and picture qualit y to an unprecedented degree. The 4-colour system adds yellow reproduction to the conventional primar y colours of red, green, and blue ( RGB plus Y ) . This markedly enhanced yellow reproduction provides an unprecedented wide range in gradations to deliver colours just as they are in nature. Compared with the conventional 3-primar y colour panel's 6.2 million dots, the more than 8 million dots of the 4-primar y colour system deliver greater precision with unprecedented colour expression through the addition of yellow. Energy Savings The high transmissivit y of the new 4-primar y colour filter in Quat tron enables lower power consumption by using the LED backlight more ef ficiently than does a conventional panel. Using the yellow colour component improves ef ficiency for higher brightness. 1,920 X 1,080 X 3 ( RG B ) = 6,220,80 0 dots1,920 X 1,080 X 4 ( RG BY ) = 8,29 4,4 0 0 dots X-Gen/RGBX-Gen/RGBY LE DING-EDGE TECHNOLOGY FOR THE BEAUTY OF NATURE AND THE BEAUTY OF ART Light Blue Sparkling Gold Bright Yellow 0.9 500 0.8 0.8 0.7 0.7 0.6 0.6 0.5 0.5 0.4 0.4 0.3 0.3 0.2 0.2 0.1 0.1 0.0 0.0520 540 560 580600620 380 460 470 480 490 Colour reproduction area of HDT V standard (EBU100% ) Colour reproduction area of Quattron *The pictures on this page are simulated illustrations and pictures for the purpose of explaining features. Improved Colour Reproduction The addition of yellow pixels enables the reproduction of colours which displays were previously unable to accurately depict. The 4-colour system creates a vast array of colours and improves expressiveness.
X-Gen Panel The nex t-generation LCD panels are produced using Sharp’s uniquely developed U V 2A*1 photo- alignment technology. Together with fast response, this technology achieves a higher contrast ratio by enhancing light ef ficiency and eliminating backlight leakage to deliver the deepest black as well as the brightest white. High-efficiency LED Backlight Using LEDs as the light source in AQUOS enables precise brightness control and high-speed response. With LED light diffusion technology, the entire screen is lit with high efficiency and consistency in brightness. Combined with the next-generation X-Gen panel, AQUOS achieves a higher contrast ratio and delivers vibrant red colours with deeper black for high-precision detail in dark scenes. 4 Enabling Higher Brightness with Less Power and Expressing Vivid Intermediate Colours Why yellow? Conventional RGB displays need excessive lighting to produce vivid intermediate colours, such as yellow, cyan and magenta, and high brightness from all light sources to deliver a bright picture. Yellow is the solution to enable both a wider colour gamut and brighter picture with less power.

Making a Tangible Contribution to Environmetal Protection Many manufacturers today make good products, but few produce “green products”. Sharp wants to be commit ted to the protection of the natural resources on which our lives and based. So to make a reduction of CO2 emissions worldwide, Sharp products are equipped with various energy-saving eco-features that make our T Vs true energy savers. ENVIRONMENT LLY FRIENDLY
9 1 4-Primary Colour Technology (LE820M series) In addition to the three primar y colours red, green and blue, the sub- pixels brilliant yellow enable ef ficient backlight operation with reproduction in higher qualit y. Less power is needed to reproduce the same level of yellow output than with conventional panels. 2 LED Sharp’s LED system enables precise brightness control and high-speed response. This reduces the light required to view the same picture and decreases power consumption. 3 X-Gen Panel Compared to the conventional Advanced Super View panel, the new X-Gen panel has a wider aper ture ratio, allowing easy light transmission through the panel.This greatly helps to achieve a high contrast ratio with less power. 4 Eco Picture Control Analyzing the picture signal to optimally control the backlight brightness and picture qualit y produces a high-qualit y picture with low power consumption. 5 Energy Save Mode The LE Series represents the latest in energy-saving design with a dedicated Eco but ton on the remote control that allows the user to choose bet ween t wo levels of energy saving : standard and advanced. Set ting the power-saving level can result in decreased overall power consumption. 6 Optical Picture Control ( OPC ) OPC automatically adjusts the screen brightness according to the ambient room brightness. This is not only eco-friendly, since it leads to greater conser vation of energy, but also easy on the eyes. 7 No-Signal Off / No-Operation Off The T V automatically switches into standby mode to reduce power consumption if there is no signal for 15 minutes or no operation for three hours. 8 Innovation Meets Ecology Outstanding examples are presented with our new LCD T Vs of the LE820 series equipped with leading-edge technology and the 4-primar y colour system ( RGB plus Y ) .
