eLCOS Microdisplay Technology will be introducing the latest release of its 1080p eHD70 display panel -- featuring an ultra-high 4000:1 panel contrast ratio -- at International CES 2005 in Las Vegas from January 6-9, 2005. The new eHD70 combines VAN (Vertically Aligned Nematic) liquid crystal technology with eLCOS Microdisplay's proprietary digital technology -- Dynamic Digital Drive -- for a vibrant, sharp picture. eLCOS panels will be demonstrated in a 60 inch TV, which can be seen by appointment. CEO Warren Shih will also be on hand to discuss the company's product roadmap, technology improvements, and 2005 initiatives.

The eHD70 produces a 1080 x 1920 progressive-scan resolution, the highest HDTV resolution available today. The eHD70 is designed for use in a three panel system architecture for either front or rear projection displays.

eLCOS Dynamic Digital Drive technology enables digital voltage from the video input signal to the eLCOS SRAM pixel circuit, which creates exceptionally high-fidelity images at a true native 1080p resolution. Dynamic Digital Drive is also immune to common display artifacts such as image burn-in and data line crosstalk.

eLCOS Vertically Aligned liquid crystal technology features an intrinsic 4000:1 panel contrast ratio and lifetime of over 90,000 hours. eLCOS Chief Technology Officer Ed Hudson explained, "The inorganic alignment layer is a key enabler of high-yielding long-lifetime VAN technology. Our milestone achievement addresses a market demand for an attractive, reliable, and affordable HDTV solution."

Space is limited, so please call ahead to reserve a time to view eLCOS display technology during International CES 2005. Contact:
