"The
Brillian 6501mB is the first rear projection television made by Brillian.
It features LCoS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) technology that is very similar
to the highly acclaimed Sony Qualia 006. The biggest difference being this
display is 720p (1280x720) instead of 1080p (1920x1080) like the Qualia.
However, don’t let this stop you from considering this display. The
difference in how this display will look compared to the Qualia in day to
day use is very small and the Brillian may actually be better for some
people.
LCoS is a technology that appears to be
coming into its age. It is very quick to respond resulting in few motion
artifacts. The current three chip versions also avoid the significant
problems of using a color wheel to achieve a color image. Black levels that
can satisfy all, but the pickiest of consumers is another big plus. LCoS as
a technology is a real contender for the HDTV champion of 2005...."
Video Processor Reviews:
"...The advent of High Definition Television
(HDTV) has brought a longstanding problem into painful focus. Once a person
purchases a HDTV they discover the quality of most of our standard
definition (480i) sources are not very good. Most assume something is wrong
with their new television, but unfortunately these high resolution devices
bring our legacy broadcast system flaws into sharp focus. Whether you get
your signal off-the-air (OTA) or from cable or satellite they are fraught
with noise including compression artifacts and bad reception noise.
Surprisingly OTA has fewer problems than the others, but programming
selection is limited in comparison.
Algolith has created a new device to deal
with this problem that won recognition as a CES 2005 Innovations Honoree in
the Home Theater category. The Mosquito uses four different noise reducing
techniques to improve the appearance of less than perfect source material.
It can remove mosquito noise using Algolith's proprietary pixel based
algorithm. Something called Block Artifact Reduction (BAR) reduces the block
structures of compressed images found on any source that uses MPEG
compression. Advanced motion adaptive temporal filtering is provided to
eliminate bad reception and low light noise. Finally, the Mosquito provides
image enhancement using non-linear filters to remove noise while retaining
image details...."
